Hi everybody!
How is it going?
I found a bug using w3af in console mode, exactly when I try to quit from
the NO ROOT MENU.
Iam running the last SVN version!
Here I wrote down my session for check the error.
tin...@sherly-l:{ ~/proyectos/w3af }$ ./w3af_console
w3af>>> plugins
w3af/plugins>>> exit
w3af/plugins>>> Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./w3af_console", line 96, in <module>
errCode = main()
File "./w3af_console", line 92, in main
console.sh()
File "/home/tincho/proyectos/w3af/core/ui/consoleUi/consoleUi.py", line
120, in sh
self._context.join()
AttributeError: pluginsMenu instance has no attribute 'join'
tin...@sherly-l:{ ~/proyectos/w3af }$
As you can see the problem is when i try to quit from "w3af/plugins"(no root
menu), it really happend with any module(plugins, exploit....)
I have debugged the file core/ui/consoleUi/consoleUi.py in line 120 and I
found the following code:
if not hasattr(self, '_parent'):
self._w3af.quit()
self._context.join()
om.out.console(self._randomMessage())
The code above ask for "not _parent in self" that is always TRUE because
consoleUI instance doesn't have _parent attribute.
But that is not the problem, the error is raised on the
"self._context.join()" method call. The self._context attribute reference
the "current" menu(where we are), so we could have a "rootMenu" or a
"pluginMenu" both of them are "menu"'s subclass, but only rootMenu implement
the "join()" method. so I have patched the code by adding the "join" method
to core/ui/consoleUi/menu.py in the menu class (Top level class of rootMenu
and pluginsMenu), with that change the code doesn't fail anymore and the
rootMenu class re-implemments the join method so all looks good =)!
here is the added join method:
core/ui/consoleUi/menu.py
def join(self):
'''
This is a abstract method to emulate the join
method on a thread, by default DO NOTHING
'''
pass
I appreciate if somebody could check it!
Cheers,
