Authenticated remote code execution in Dolibarr ERP & CRM
#########################################################


Overview
########

Advisory ID: TRSA-2106-01
Advisory version: 1.0
Advisory status: Public
Advisory URL: https://trovent.io/security-advisory-2106-01
Affected product: Dolibarr ERP & CRM
Tested versions: Dolibarr 13.0.2
Vendor: Dolibarr foundation, https://www.dolibarr.org

Detailed description
####################

During our security research Trovent Security discovered
that the Dolibarr application on default settings allows remote code execution
in the website builder module. When trying to use statements like "exec()",
"system()" or "shell_exec()" the application blocks them correctly.
But we were able to execute code using "``" (backticks) which is the same as
"shell_exec()" or "echo fread(popen('/bin/ls /', 'r'), 4096);".

Severity: Critical
CVSS Score: 9.1 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CWE ID: CWE-94
CVE ID: CVE-2021-33816
