Webmin 远程代码执行漏洞 (CVE-2019-15642)

## [CVE-2019-15642 – Authenticated RCE on Webmin <= 1.920](https://www.calypt.com/blog/index.php/authenticated-rce-on-webmin/) Published on: Jul 31 2019 by Loïc ------  ## Rpc.cgi After the [XXE](https://www.calypt.com/blog/index.php/authenticated-xxe-on-webmin/), we found another bug in [Webmin](http://www.webmin.com/). This time it’s [*rpc.cgi*](https://github.com/webmin/webmin/blob/master/rpc.cgi) wich is vulnerable. More precisely a call to “unserialise_variable” function is done before than checking if the current user is root, admin or sysadm. As parameter of “unserialise_variable”, there is the content of the HTTP POST request :  ## Web-lib-funcs.pl In order to call *rpc.cgi* and trigger the vulnerability we need 2 prerequisites : - **User-agent set to “webmin”** (Webmin interprets this as log with basic auth rather than session cookie) ; - **Valid Basic auth** for a user of Webmin (for this exemple, whe use a freshly created user “toto” with default rights). Once these two conditions are met we can go further and look around *unserialise_variable* in [web-lib-funcs.pl](https://github.com/webmin/webmin/blob/master/web-lib-funcs.pl) : Evil eval If someone POST an OBJECT it will be used directly in the “eval” statement and so… executed… as root. More precisely it’s $cls that will be executed which corresponds to the regexp match. ## Exploit The only thing left to do is write our own code and display the result.  ## Response from vendor / fix Thanks for the bug report! Can you check if this patch fixes the issue for you : <https://github.com/webmin/webmin/commit/df8a43fb4bdc9c858874f72773bcba597ae9432c> Fortunately this isn’t super high risk, **as any Webmin user with permissions to call rpc.cgi can already execute any code was root**.
