Serv-U Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
" <http://www.serv-u.com/> Serv-U is a powerful, easy-to-use,
award-winning FTP server created by Rob Beckers."
It is possible for a local unprivileged user to execute commands with
SYSTEM privileges using a problem with Serv-U administration.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* Serv-U version 4.x through 5.1.0.0 inclusive
The Serv-U FTP server in all its platforms has a local administration
account that can be used to configure the server. This account has a
default login and password credentials and is only available through the
loopback interface. An unprivileged user can connect to the server with
the default login information and use the "SITE EXEC" command to execute
arbitrary commands. The commands are run with SYSTEM privileges hence
turning Serv-U to a conduit through which administrative commands can be
run.
A proof of concept code that demonstrates this vulnerability is presented
below:
/*
* Hax0rcitos proudly presents
* Serv-u Local Exploit >v3.x. (tested also against last version 5.1.0.0)
*
* All Serv-u Versions have default Login/password for local
Administration.
* This account is only available to connect in the loopback interface, so
a
* local user will be able to connect to Serv-u with this account and
create
* an ftp user with execute rights. after the user is created, just
connect
* to the ftp server and execute a raw "SITE EXEC" command. the program
will
* be execute with SYSTEM privileges.
