In the module “Product Catalog (CSV, Excel) Import” (simpleimportproduct) up to version 6.7.0 from MyPrestaModules for PrestaShop, a guest can upload files with extensions .php.

The method Send::__construct() allows the upload of .zip files, which can be auto uncompress in a predictable directory, author tries to protect it with a.htaccess, but since we can forge a zip with a custom .htaccess and a PHP payload, it will lead to a critical vulnerability CWE-94.

WARNING : Be warned that this exploit will bypass the majority of WAF (zipped payload with htaccess auto-hijacked)

Note : The author has moved its exposed ajax script which suffers a critical issue to a front controller under an unpredictable token. It remains a critical vulnerability issue with a CVSS 3.1 score 9.1/10. For this reason, you should consider to delete this module.

Edit 2024-07-09 - WARNING : This exploit is actively used to deploy webskimmer to massively steal credit cards. Since POC is now exploited, it is considered public.
