PoC for the CVE-2024 Litespeed Cache Privilege Escalation # CVE-2024-28000 PoC
This repository contains tools for exploiting the CVE-2024-28000 vulnerability affecting WordPress sites using the LiteSpeed Cache plugin. The included scripts automate the detection of exposed debug.log files and the exploitation of a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to gain administrator-level access. An extensive Documentation on this Vulnerability can be found here: https://patchstack.com/articles/critical-privilege-escalation-in-litespeed-cache-plugin-affecting-5-million-sites?_s_id=cve
# Features
1. checkdebuglog.py
Purpose: Scans WordPress sites for exposed debug.log files.
How it Works:
The script sends HTTP requests to the /wp-content/debug.log endpoint.
It uses multithreading to efficiently process multiple URLs, determining if the log file is accessible.
2. exploit.py
Purpose: Exploits a privilege escalation vulnerability in the LiteSpeed Cache plugin.
How it Works:
Step 1: The script triggers the generation of a cache file via an AJAX request to the WordPress site, which simulates a LiteSpeed crawler.
Step 2: It exploits a flaw in the cache or hash mechanism, allowing the attacker to access a privileged session without brute-forcing the hash.
Step 3: If successful, the attacker can hijack an admin session or gain unauthorized access to administrator functionalities.
# Usage

```
Input: A list of target URLs.
Output: Identifies URLs with exposed debug.log files.
