CVE-2017-0358
0x00 ntfs-3g (Debian 9) - Privilege Escalation
最近研究了下CVE-2017-0358，Linux下的本地提权漏洞，记录下学习历程。最初是在exploit-db上发现该漏洞ntfs-3g (Debian 9) - Privilege Escalation，并附有EXP，在简单学习了FUSE、NTFS-3G等基础概念后尝试利用作者给出的EXP复现漏洞。EXP如下：

疑惑的是无论如何测试，始终不成功，最后怀疑是modprobe函数的问题，查看官方文档，给出如下解释：
The modprobe command silently succeeds with an exit status of 0 if it successfully loads the module, or the module is already loaded into the kernel.Thus, you must ensure that the module is not already loaded before attempting to load it with custom parameters. The modprobe command does not automatically reload the module, or alert you that it is already loaded.
也就是说，无法解决在系统已加载FUSE模块的前提下重新加载FUSE，并使临时参数生效的问题。黔驴技穷，于是发邮件给作者，作（骗）者（子）赤果果的say：“need additional modification，you have to make me an offer”,shit...

0x01 ntfs-3g: modprobe is executed with unsanitized environment
在经历过艰苦的search之后，终于发现了漏洞的真正作者project zero的jannh(ntfs-3g: modprobe is executed with unsanitized environment)。
漏洞存在于NTFS-3G之中，该程序是由Tuxera公司开发并维护的开源项目，目的是为Linux提供NTFS分区的驱动程序，实现对NTFS文件系统的读写。该程序默认安装在Ubuntu等操作系统中，并且赋予了setuid的权限。作者解释到CVE-2017-0358的根源在于，NTFS-3G在调用modprobe时没有初始化环境变量，致使存在本地提权的风险。漏洞存在于load_fuse_module ()函数之中：
static fuse_fstype load_fuse_module(void)
{
int i;
struct stat st;
pid_t pid;
const char *cmd = "/sbin/modprobe";
struct timespec req = { 0, 100000000 }; /* 100 msec */
fuse_fstype fstype;
if (!stat(cmd, &st) && !geteuid()) {
pid = fork();
if (!pid) {
execl(cmd, cmd, "fuse", NULL);
_exit(1);
} else if (pid != -1)
waitpid(pid, NULL, 0);
}
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
/*
* We sleep first because despite the detection of the loaded
* FUSE kernel module, fuse_mount() can still fail if it's not
* fully functional/initialized. Note, of course this is still
* unreliable but usually helps.
*/
nanosleep(&req, NULL);
fstype = get_fuse_fstype();
if (fstype != FSTYPE_NONE)
break;
}
return fstype;
}
当NTFS-3G被调用时，利用get_fuse_fstype()检测当前系统是否加载FUSE模块，若未加载，则利用load_fuse_module()中的modprobe，加载FUSE模块。
static fuse_fstype get_fuse_fstype(void)
{
char buf[256];
fuse_fstype fstype = FSTYPE_NONE;
FILE *f = fopen("/proc/filesystems", "r");
if (!f) {
ntfs_log_perror("Failed to open /proc/filesystems");
return FSTYPE_UNKNOWN;
}
while (fgets(buf, sizeof(buf), f)) {
if (strstr(buf, "fuseblk\n")) {
fstype = FSTYPE_FUSEBLK;
break;
}
if (strstr(buf, "fuse\n"))
fstype = FSTYPE_FUSE;
}
fclose(f);
return fstype;
}
问题在于，modprobe的设计初衷并不是运行在一个setuid的环境当中，而NTFS-3G却需要setuid的权限。在modprobe的man文档中明确指出：
The MODPROBE_OPTIONS environment variable can also be used to pass arguments to modprobe.
因此，在一个尚未加载FUSE 的系统中，攻击者可以通过设置环境变量MODPROBE_OPTIONS "-C /tmp/evil_config -d /tmp/evil_root"，强制modprobe加载恶意配置文件，导致攻击者具备加载任意代码到系统内核的能力。
在现实情况中，FUSE在大部分系统中已被作为内核的一部分，基本都处于已加载的状态，也就是文章伊始提到的问题。 jannh对这个问题给出了一种解决思路，通过耗尽系统范围内所有进程可以打开的文件句柄的数量 (/proc/sys/fs/file-max)，使得NTFS-3G在fopen("/proc/filesystems", "r")时异常，导致get_fuse_fstype()返回FSTYPE_UNKNOWN，在主函数中触发load_fuse_module()函数。
fstype = get_fuse_fstype();
err = NTFS_VOLUME_NO_PRIVILEGE;
if (restore_privs())
goto err_out;
if (fstype == FSTYPE_NONE || fstype == FSTYPE_UNKNOWN)
fstype = load_fuse_module();
create_dev_fuse();
if (drop_privs())
goto err_out;

jannh给出了EXP，通过测试成功在Ubuntu Server 16.10、kali 4.3中实现提权，在Debian 8中测试失败。测试如下：（注：在VM中测试时，需要多CPU的支持）
