Discovery
- Check meta
curl https://www.drupal.org/ | grep 'content="Drupal'
- Node: Drupal content entities of the node type represent items such as articles and pages. Canonical routes commonly use
/node/<nodeid>, although aliases can hide that route.[2]
curl drupal-site.com/node/1
Enumeration
Version
- Check
/CHANGELOG.txt
curl -s http://drupal-site.local/CHANGELOG.txt | grep -m2 ""
Drupal 7.57, 2018-02-21
[!TIP] Newer installs of Drupal by default block access to the
CHANGELOG.txtandREADME.txtfiles.
Username enumeration
Drupal installs define the following broad roles by default; permissions and any additional roles are site-configurable:[3]
Administrator: This user has complete control over the Drupal website.Authenticated User: These users can log in to the website and perform operations such as adding and editing articles based on their permissions.Anonymous: All website visitors are designated as anonymous. By default, these users are only allowed to read posts.
To enumerate users you can:
- Profile probing: Request
/user/1,/user/2,/user/3and compare status, body, redirects, and timing. This only enumerates users when the site exposes distinguishable responses. - Registry: Access
/user/registerand try to create a username and if the name is already taken it will be indicated in an error from the server. - Reset password: Try to reset the password of a user and if the user doesn’t exist it will be indicated clearly in an error message.
Hidden pages
Just find new pages by looking into /node/FUZZ where FUZZ is a number (from 1 to 1000 for example).
Installed modules info
Exposed configuration-synchronization files may reveal enabled modules and service settings.[5]
# Technique shared by Intigriti; see reference 5
#Get info on installed modules
curl https://example.com/config/sync/core.extension.yml
curl https://example.com/core/core.services.yml
# Download content from files exposed in the previous step
curl https://example.com/config/sync/swiftmailer.transport.yml
Automatic Tools
droopescan scan drupal -u http://drupal-site.local
droopescan fingerprints CMS versions, plug-ins, and themes; validate its findings manually because content filtering and customized paths can cause false results.[4]
RCE
If you have access to the Drupal web console check these options to get RCE:
From XSS to RCE
- Drupalwned is a Drupal exploitation script whose documented chains can elevate XSS into RCE or other critical impact.[1][6] Its documented targets include Drupal 7.x through 10.x, and it supports:
- Privilege Escalation: Creates an administrative user in Drupal.
- (RCE) Upload Template: Upload custom templates backdoored to Drupal.
Post Exploitation
Read settings.php
find / -name settings.php -exec grep "drupal_hash_salt\|'database'\|'username'\|'password'\|'host'\|'port'\|'driver'\|'prefix'" {} \; 2>/dev/null
Dump users from DB
mysql -u drupaluser --password='2r9u8hu23t532erew' -e 'use drupal; select * from users'
