SugarCRM <= 13.0.1 (set_note_attachment) Unrestricted File Upload
Vulnerability
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[-] Software Link:
https://www.sugarcrm.com
[-] Affected Versions:
Version 13.0.1 and prior versions.
Version 12.0.3 and prior versions.
[-] Vulnerability Description:
When handling the "set_note_attachment" SOAP call, the application
allows uploading of
any kind of file into /upload/ directory. This one is protected by the
main SugarCRM
.htaccess file, i.e. it doesn't allow access/execution of PHP files.
However, this
behavior can be overridden if the subdirectory contains another
.htaccess file.
So, an attacker can leverage the vulnerability to firstly upload a new
.htaccess
file and then to upload the PHP code they want to execute.
[-] Proof of Concept:

(Packet Storm note: POC included at bottom)
[-] Solution:
Upgrade to version 13.0.2, 12.0.4, or later.
