Utility script to test zip file upload functionality (and possible extraction of zip files) for vulnerabilities (aka Zip Slip). Idea for this script comes from this post on Silent Signal Techblog - Compressed File Upload And Command Execution and from OWASP - Test Upload of Malicious Files
Snyk.io has got a report how this works: Zip Slip vulnerability and a GitHub repository with vulnerable libraries in different languages: Snyk.io Zip Slip github repo
There is also a great video from LiveOverflow shedding some light on Zip Slip and Zipperdown vulnerabilities: Critical .zip vulnerabilities? - Zip Slip and ZipperDown
This script will create archive which contains files with "../" in filename. When extracting this could cause files to be extracted to preceding directories. It can allow attacker to extract shells to directories which can be accessed from web browser.
Default webshell is wwwolf's PHP web shell and all the credit for it goes to WhiteWinterWolf. Source is available HERE
-
Install using Python pip (Python 3 required)
pip3 install zip-shotgun --upgrade -
Clone git repository and install
git clone https://github.com/jpiechowka/zip-shotgun.gitExecute from root directory of the cloned repository (where setup.py file is located)
pip3 install . --upgrade
Usage: zip-shotgun [OPTIONS] OUTPUT_ZIP_FILE
Options:
--version Show the version and exit.
-c, --directories-count INTEGER
Count of how many directories to go back
inside the zip file (e.g 3 means that 3
files will be added to the zip: shell.php,
../shell.php and ../../shell.php where
shell.php is the name of the shell you
provided or randomly generated value
[default: 16]
-n, --shell-name TEXT Name of the shell inside the generated zip
file (e.g shell). If not provided it will be
randomly generated. Cannot have whitespaces
-f, --shell-file-path PATH A file that contains code for the shell. If
this option is not provided wwwolf
(https://github.com/WhiteWinterWolf/wwwolf-
php-webshell) php shell will be added
instead. If name is provided it will be
added to the zip with the provided name or
if not provided the name will be randomly
generated.
--compress Enable compression. If this flag is set
archive will be compressed using DEFALTE
algorithm with compression level of 9. By
default there is no compression applied.
-h, --help Show this message and exit.
