Tomcat 服务本地提权漏洞预警

Tomcat是由Apache软件基金会下属的Jakarta项目开发的一个Servlet容器，按照Sun Microsystems提供的技术规范，实现了对Servlet和JavaServer Page（JSP）的支持，并提供了作为Web服务器的一些特有功能，如Tomcat管理和控制平台、安全域管理和Tomcat阀等。

——来自于维基百科

10月1日,Tomcat爆出了一个本地提权漏洞。通过该漏洞,攻击者可以通过一个低权限的Tomcat用户获得系统的root权限。

漏洞相关信息：

CVE ID:

CVE-2016-1240

漏洞原理：

在Debian系统的Linux上管理员通常利用apt-get进行包管理,deb包是Unixar的标准归档,讲包文件信息以及包内容,经过gzip和tar打包而成。

该问题出在Tomcat的deb包中,使 deb包安装的Tomcat程序会自动为管理员安装一个启动脚本,该脚本位于/etc/init.d/tomcat*, 跟踪代码如下:

171

# Run the catalina.sh script as a daemon

172

set +e  

173

touch "$CATALINA_PID" "$CATALINA_BASE"/logs/catalina.out

174

chown $TOMCAT7_USER "$CATALINA_PID" "$CATALINA_BASE"/logs/catalina.out

175

start-stop-daemon --start -b -u "$TOMCAT7_USER" -g "$TOMCAT7_GROUP" \

176

-c "$TOMCAT7_USER" -d "$CATALINA_TMPDIR" -p "$CATALINA_PID" \

177

-x /bin/bash -- -c "$AUTHBIND_COMMAND $TOMCAT_SH"

178

status="$?"

179

set +a -e  

在174行,Tomcat服务在启动时,会将log文件catalina.out的所有者改为Tomcat用户, 而启动脚本通常由root用户调用。如果将catalina.out修改为指向任意文件的链接将会导致攻击者以高权限随意操作任意系统文件。

利用分析：

该漏洞利用难度不大且场景常见,攻击者在上传webshell后拿到Tomcat用户权限,将catalina.out修改为指向 /etc/shadow 的softlink文件,启动脚本运行后,Tomcat用户将对 /etc/shadow 有访问权限,今读取修改root用户密码,测试如下:

cleanexit 0

可以看到,PoC中主要的几个流程, 首先利用Tomcat启动脚本chown的缺陷把/etc/ld_preload.so变成有权限改写,然后加入自己的ldpreload,最后在自己的ldpreload里面给backdoor加上setuid权限,这样Tomcat重启以后backdoor就是root权限带suid了。

影响范围：

deb打包的所有Tomcat6/7/8等版本均受到影响

应急修复方案：

1.临时修复建议

若担心更新有兼容问题,可更改Tomcat的启动脚本为 chown -h $TOMCAT6_USER "$CATALINA_PID" "$CATALINA_BASE"/logs/catalina.out

加入 - h参数防止其他文件所有者被更改。

2. 更新最新Tomcat包

Debian安全小组已经在第一时间修复了受影响的Tomcat上游包,直接更新发行版提供的Tomcat即可。
