Remote root vuln in HSphere WebShell
From: Carl Livitt <carl () learningshophull co uk>
Date: Mon, 6 Jan 2003 12:08:30 +0000
Hi all,
Below is an advisory on a remote (and local) root vulnerability in the HSphere
product by Positive Software which is used by many web-hosting providers.
The vulnerability is in the WebShell component (installed by default). Proof of
concept exploits are provided and links to patched versions of WebShell are
included in the advisory.
Regards,

=============================
SECURITY VULNERABILITY REPORT
=============================
Product: HSphere Webshell 20020224 (latest tarball. Earlier versions are
possibly vulnerable too).
Provider: Positive Software (http://psoft.net)
Impact: Local & remote root compromise
Platorms: Linux/BSD
=================
Brief description
=================
Webshell is a web-based application that acts as a file manager for uploading /
downloading files via FTP. It uses username/password authentication to ensure
security. It runs SUID root in Unix environments so that it can read from the
system shadow password file and change UID to a successfully authenticated
user.
There is a pre-authentication buffer overflow in the HTTP header processing
code which would allow a malicious user to overwrite data on the stack; this
can lead to execution of arbitrary code as root.
===========
More detail
===========
The overflow occurs in the CGI::readFile() function of CGI.C when insufficient
bounds checking (ie: none at all) is performed on the 'boundary' string:
int CGI::readFile(istream& is, ostream& os, const char* boundary) {
char b1[255];
strcpy(b1, "\r");
strcat(b1, boundary);
The 'boundary' string is taken from the data-stream directly after the HTTP
headers in the incoming request. For example:
POST /cgi-bin/webshell HTTP/1.1
Host: www.vulnerablesite.com
Content-Type: multipart/form-data boundary=AAAAA (300 "A"s)
Content-Length: 900
--AAAAA (300 "A"s)
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="TESTNAME"; filename="TESTFILENAME"
This would overflow the 'b1' array with 300 "A"s and overwrite the saved
EIP with 0x41414141. Note that the data that overwrites 'b1' is not taken
from the 'Content-Type' header, but from the line preceding the
'Content-Disposition' field. Also note that both boundary tags need to be
identical for an exploit to succeed.
To ease exploitation, shellcode can be stored in an HTTP header that is
converted to an environment variable by the webserver (eg. Apache) when
webshell is executed. An example of such a header is 'Accept-Encoding';
this is converted to "HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING" and can store strings that
hold enormous amounts of shellcode. The provided exploit uses a small
port-binding shellcode written by Bighawk.
It should also be noted that webshell does not need to be exploited
remotely; it is perfectly possible to exploit it locally to elevate user
privileges to root.
=====================
Other Vulnerabilities
=====================
Lines 114-117 of 'command.C':
string file = dirname + '/' + cgi.varByName("file");
string mode = cgi.varByName("mode");
string tmp=CHMOD+mode+" "+shquote(encodeFileName(file));
if (0==system(tmp.c_str())) {
A user could execute commands by embedding them in the 'mode'
field of the HTTP query (eg. 'mode=$(cat /etc/passwd) 0755').
---------
Lines 170-228 of 'command2.cc':
void Command::compress(bool download) {
string zipfile=encodeFileName(cgi.varByName("zipfile"));
string compression=cgi.varByName("compression");
.
.
if (compression.compare("zip")==0) {
.
.
cmd=ZIP" -q -r -b /tmp "+zipfile+tmp;
}
.
.
if (!error) {
if (download)
html.header("application/x-unknown");
error= !((chdir(dirname.c_str())==0) && (system(cmd.c_str())==0));
A user could execute commands by embedding them in the 'zipfile'
field of the HTTP query (eg. 'zipfile=xyzzy`ls -l`').
There are many occurences of this type of error. It should also be
noted that the encodeFileName() function simply returns the string
it was passed! It does no encoding at all!
----------
Line 16 of diskusage.cc:
size+=diskusage(strcat(strcat(strcpy(file, path), "/"),dir_entry->d_name));
'file' is declared as "char file[1024];" which could probably be used to
overflow stack variables, possibly modifying execution path via EIP.
----------
In flist() function in flist.C:
char fname[256];
int esize=strlen(ext);
int fsize;
if ((cdir=opendir(dname))!=NULL) {
while ((cfile=readdir(cdir)) != NULL) {
if ((esize>=(fsize=strlen(cfile->d_name))) ||
(strstr(cfile->d_name+fsize-esize,ext)==NULL)) continue;
strcpy(fname, dname);
strcat(fname, "/");
strcat(fname, cfile->d_name);
fname[] gets overwritten, EIP overwritten etc etc.
========
Solution
========
The vendor response to these issues has been remarkable. In under six
hours from notification, an updated version of webshell was available
for download from the Positive Software website; they have included
an automatic update tool in addition to the updated WebShell tarball.
Tarball: http://www.hsphere.com/WebShell-2.4.tar.gz
Update: http://www.psoft.net/misc/webshell_patch.html
Thanks to Ivor Seletskiy and the team for their excellent coordination
in responding to and resolving this matter.

Exploits
========
In keeping with full-disclosure, here are two exploits: a local one
which will elevate any user to r00t, and a remote one which works
against all tested webshell installations and yields a remote root
shell on port 10000 (by default).
Both exploits work in a bruteforce manner, which ensures that they
work more often than not. However, this bruteforcing means that
the exploits are 'noisy': they leave a lot of mess. Cleaning up
after this mess is left as an excercise for the reader.
First, the local exploit:
/*
* Local r00t exploit for Webshell 2.4 (possibly other versions).
* Vulnerability found and exploit written by Carl Livitt
* (carl (@) learningshophull.co.uk).
*
Exploits a simple stack-based buffer overflow in CGI.C of the
HSphere webshell component which is installed SUID & GUID root
by default.
Uses a bruteforce method to guess the return address on the stack
and the amount of data to overflow the buffer with; this ensures
it works under many different environments. I originally hardcoded
these values, but found that this was unreliable.
Copy this file (webshell-local.c) to /tmp and then:
cd /tmp
gcc -o webshell-local webshell-local.c
cd /path/to/the/webshell/directory
/tmp/webshell-local
That should get you r00t without any messing about.

The remote exploit

/*
* Remote r00t exploit for Webshell 2.4 (possibly other versions).

* (carl (@) learningshophull.co.uk).
*
Exploits a simple stack-based buffer overflow in CGI.C of the
HSphere webshell component which is installed SUID & GUID root
by default.
This exploit will bind a r00t shell to port 10000 (by default) of
the remote box. Feel free to use any shellcode of your choice.
This code is a butchered version of the local exploit for
webshell. It works on my test box, and won't be refined any further,
although the bruteforcer should work on most webshell installations.
To exploit:
gcc -o webshell-remote webshell-remote.c
./webshell-remote -t www.host-to-exploit.com -l /path/to/webshell
That's it. It'll work on almost all vulnerable hosts (running Linux).
