Path Traversal in Samsung MagicINFO 9 Server
CVE-2024-7399 is an improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory in Samsung MagicINFO 9 Server affecting versions before 21.1050. The flaw allows a remote attacker to supply crafted path input through an HTTP-accessible interface and escape the intended directory restrictions. According to the provided content, successful exploitation enables arbitrary file write with system authority; multiple references also state attackers can leverage this to upload crafted JSP files and achieve remote code execution. The issue is described as a path traversal vulnerability in the centralized content management platform used for enterprise digital signage deployments.

This repository contains a fully functional exploit for CVE-2024-7399, a remote code execution vulnerability in Samsung MagicInfo's SWUpdateFileUploader endpoint. The main exploit script (CVE-2024-7399.py) is written in Python and orchestrates the attack by uploading malicious JSP payloads (check.jsp and exploit.jsp) to the target server via a path traversal vulnerability in the SWUpdateFileUploader endpoint. The check.jsp payload is used to verify RCE by echoing a random string, while exploit.jsp provides a more advanced webshell that executes arbitrary commands using Java Nashorn scripting. The exploit supports three main modes: RCE verification, arbitrary file upload, and an interactive command shell. The repository also includes a Java command wrapper template for command execution and a requirements.txt for dependencies. The attack vector is network-based, targeting the exposed MagicInfo service, and the endpoints involved are clearly fingerprintable. The exploit is operational, providing a working RCE chain but requiring the attacker to supply commands interactively.
