Introducing WSO Shell

I first met WSO Shell on a hacked site: WSO shell is a typical hacker’s tool, primarily used by evil hackers to access a remote server through a complete and powerful shell and file manager. WSO Shell, is an awesome piece of software, contained in a single PHP file it offers a long list of extremely useful functions, all of which are run with the privileges of the web server user:
  • a full featured filemanager (copy, rename, edit, delete, up/download etc.)
  • a console that can run commands from the underlying operating system
  • a SQL console
  • a PHP console
  • string tools with tons of pre-configured commands
  • network analysis tools
  • detailed system information
  • penetration testing tools
WSO Command Shell is an extremely powerful tool and if misused can seriously damage your system. With great power comes great responsibility: please be careful.

A must-have for Joomla! admins

WSO Shell Joomla! plugin is not for end users, its powerful features make it a dangerous tool if not used with care, for this reason it is only accessible through the control panel for Super Administrator users. With the power of WSO Shell at your command, you can easily analyze your system and perform administrative tasks with the privileges of the web server user After it saved my day a few times I decided to pack it in a Joomla! plugin, to ease installation, expecially when FTP is not an option.

A big warning about security

It’s worth saying a few words about the versions of WSO Shell you can find on the internet, at the time of writing, the first result from a Google search leads to https://github.com/orbweb/PHP-SHELL-WSO/downloads this download contains malicious code around line 1000 which automatically sends an email with server details to an american address. GitHub has been contacted with details and I expect that this download will be eventually removed. Obviously, the first thing I did before starting to use WSO Shell was to inspect the script line by line and carefully remove all possible vulnerabilities. That said, WSO Shell Joomla! plugin allows Joomla! administrators to exploit the power of the underlying operating system running commands and testing for possible attacks and for this reason it is an extremely useful security tool.
