FortiNet FortiClient EMS 7.2.2 / 7.0.10 SQL Injection / Remote Code Execution

FortiNet FortiClient EMS 7.2.2 / 7.0.10 SQL Injection / Remote Code Execution
Posted Apr 23, 2024
Authored by Spencer McIntyre, jheysel-r7, James Horseman, Zach Hanley | Site metasploit.com

A remote SQL injection vulnerability exists in FortiNet FortiClient EMS (Endpoint Management Server) versions 7.2.0 through 7.2.2 and 7.0.1 through 7.0.10. FortiClient EMS serves as an endpoint management solution tailored for enterprises, offering a centralized platform for overseeing enrolled endpoints. The SQL injection vulnerability is due to user controller strings which can be sent directly into database queries. FcmDaemon.exe is the main service responsible for communicating with enrolled clients. By default it listens on port 8013 and communicates with FCTDas.exe which is responsible for translating requests and sending them to the database. In the message header of a specific request sent between the two services, the FCTUID parameter is vulnerable to SQL injection. It can be used to enable the xp_cmdshell which can then be used to obtain unauthenticated remote code execution in the context of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Upgrading to either 7.2.3, 7.0.11 or above is recommended by FortiNet. It should be noted that in order to be vulnerable, at least one endpoint needs to be enrolled / managed by FortiClient EMS for the necessary vulnerable services to be available.

An SQLi injection vulnerability exists in FortiNet FortiClient EMS (Endpoint Management Server).
FortiClient EMS serves as an endpoint management solution tailored for enterprises, offering a centralized
platform for overseeing enrolled endpoints. The SQLi is vulnerability is due to user controller strings which
can be sent directly into database queries.

FcmDaemon.exe is the main service responsible for communicating with enrolled clients. By default it listens on port 8013
and communicates with FCTDas.exe which is responsible for translating requests and sending them to the database.
In the message header of a specific request sent between the two services, the FCTUID parameter is vulnerable
SQLi. The SQLi can used to enable the xp_cmdshell which can then be used to obtain unauthenticated remote code
execution in the context of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM

Affected versions of FortiClient EMS include:
7.2.0 through 7.2.2
7.0.1 through 7.0.10

Upgrading to either 7.2.3, 7.0.11 or above is recommended by FortiNet.

It should be noted that in order to be vulnerable, at least one endpoint needs to be enrolled / managed by FortiClient
EMS for the necessary vulnerable services to be available.

# Things to note:
# 1. xp_cmdshell is disabled by default so first we must enable it.
# 2. The application takes the SQL statement we inject into and converts it all to upper case. This was causing
# attempted Base64 encoded payloads to fail, and is why we send the payload has a hex string and decode it using SQL
# before running the command with xp_command shell.
# 3. We expect to see KA_INTERVAL in the response to every SQLi attempt except for when we deliver the payload which
# is when we expect the response to be empty.
