Bonjour,

Ca fait un moment que le NovaCTF est terminé et que les solutions devraient pleuvoirs. Vu que ce n’est pas le cas, je vais en écrire un write up plus ou moins détaillé.

Tout d’abord, la chose qui a pu être constaté lors de ce challenge est un manque de vérification des binaires fournis aux participants de ce challenge. Il y a eus 3 binaires différents durant celui-ci.

Les binaires avaient les caractéristiques suivantes:

  • binaire 1 : GS activé + Visual Studio Debug
  • binaire 2 : GS activé
  • binaire 3 : GS désactivé + quelques modifications mineures du code Comme vous pouvez le remarquer, le flag GS était activé de base, ce qui rendait l’exploitation impossible sans “tricher” un peu.

J’écrirais donc l’exploitation du binaire 3 et je fournirais le paper que j’ai écris pour le binaire 1 (moddé).

Analyse

Tout d’abord, on nous dit qu’on doit exploiter un service Windows, il y a donc des chances que ça soit une escalation privilege en local ou un remote.

On part donc à la recherche des classiques fonctions strcpy() et recv(). Pas de chances pour la première fonction, et joie, on localise rapidement la deuxième avec un cross referencing.

Celà nous permet de trouver la fonction principale, la fonction vulnérable et de trouver strcpy() de la même manière. En effet, celle-ci est incluse statiquement et n’est pas reconnue par le FLIRT engine d’IDA Pro.

La fonction main:

Elle prend en paramètre l’addresse du buffer que recv() utilise et copie celui-ci dans un buffer local de 256 octets.

256 octets n’est pas suffisant pour avoir une payload Windows vraiment très utile et strcpy() s’arrête au 0.

Qu’à celà ne tienne, nous avons assez de place pour y placer un egghunter pour rechercher la payload qui se trouvera dans le buffer dans lequel recv() écrit. Grâce à recv() nous pouvons placer autant de 0 qu’on veut après les 260 bytes nécessaires pour re-écrire le seip (saved eip).

Une chose intéressante à savoir est que strcpy() renvoie le buffer résultant et donc son addresse se trouve dans EAX. Nous n’avons plus qu’à retourner sur un “call eax” et nous aurons fini le challenge.

Le SEIP se trouvent après 260 octets car la pile de vuln_function s’articule ainsi: [recv_buf][seip][sebp][local_buf]

Let’s exploit it then folks!

First on recherche une addresse vers “call eax” :

Soit une vingtaine d’addresse :).

Ca nous donne un tableau de rets (randomisons le plus possible ;)):

# ret return to : call eax
rets = [ 0x004022d5, 0x00402301, 0x00402322, 0x00402ca0, 0x00402d89, 0x00402e92, 0x00402eb3, 0x004038e3, 0x00403909, 0x00403972, 0x00403a63, 0x00403a92, 0x00403d2f, 0x00403d5e, 0x00405528, 0x004057a0, 0x00405a07, 0x00405a24, 0x00405a41, 0x004074c4 ]

Ensuite nous voulons un egghunter, pour celà on fait usage du egghunter mixin:

# use egghunter technique
hunter, egg_payload = generate_egghunter(payload.encoded, payload_badchars, { :checksum => true })

Il reste plus qu’à construire notre payload et à l’envoyer:

# egghunter
