【预警通告】Nginx本地提权漏洞

2016年11月15日(当地时间),legalhackers.com网站发布了一个关于Nginx服务器本地提权漏洞的通告,该通告所涉及的漏洞编号为CVE-2016-1247。基于Debian发行版系统(Debian或者Ubuntu)的Nginx服务器包被发现允许创建一个不安全的日志目录,攻击者可以利用此安全问题将用户权限从Nginx/web用户提升为root。    详情请见如下链接:http://legalhackers.com/advisories/Nginx-Exploit-Deb-Root-PrivEsc-CVE-2016-1247.html

什么是Nginx

Nginx(发音同engine x)是一个网页服务器,它能反向代理HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, IMAP的协议链接,以及一个负载均衡器和一个HTTP缓存。起初是供俄国大型的门户网站及搜索引擎Rambler使用。此软件在BSD-like协议下发行,可以在UNIX、GNU/Linux、BSD、Mac OS X、Solaris,以及Microsoft Windows等操作系统中运行。(引用自维基百科)

漏洞验证程序

POC代码如下,代码作者是Dawid Golunski。

#!/bin/bash
#
# Nginx (Debian-based distros) - Root Privilege Escalation PoC Exploit
# nginxed-root.sh (ver. 1.0)
#
# CVE-2016-1247
#
# Discovered and coded by:
#
# Dawid Golunski
# dawid[at]legalhackers.com
#
# https://legalhackers.com
#
# Follow https://twitter.com/dawid_golunski for updates on this advisory.
#
# ---
# This PoC exploit allows local attackers on Debian-based systems (Debian, Ubuntu
# etc.) to escalate their privileges from nginx web server user (www-data) to root 
# through unsafe error log handling.
#
# The exploit waits for Nginx server to be restarted or receive a USR1 signal.
# On Debian-based systems the USR1 signal is sent by logrotate (/etc/logrotate.d/nginx)
# script which is called daily by the cron.daily on default installations.
# The restart should take place at 6:25am which is when cron.daily executes.
# Attackers can therefore get a root shell automatically in 24h at most without any admin
# interaction just by letting the exploit run till 6:25am assuming that daily logrotation 
# has been configured. 
#
#
# Exploit usage:
# ./nginxed-root.sh path_to_nginx_error.log 
#
# To trigger logrotation for testing the exploit, you can run the following command:
#
# /usr/sbin/logrotate -vf /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
#
