On September 21, 2023, JetBrains publicly disclosed a critical security vulnerability with their CI/CD platform TeamCity. It was given a CVSS of 9.8 for the potential of bypassing authentication leading to a Remote Code Execution (RCE) attack. CVE-2023-42793 was disclosed and patched; users were urged to update to the latest version to avoid potential attacks. Nuclei Templates v9.6.5, released October 11, 2023, includes a template specifically for checking if this vulnerability exists in your assets.

This blog will discuss the technical details of the vulnerability and other important details, broken down in bullets for easy reading. We also included the template to show how it checks for the presence of the exploitable vulnerability.

Technical Details:

  • TeamCity utilizes request interceptors for various actions, one of which is the authorization mechanism​.
  • A specific interceptor (RequestInterceptors) checks if incoming request paths match predefined expressions (myPreHandlingDisabled)​.
  • Matching paths are exempted from pre-handling, including authorization checks​.
  • One of the excluded path expressions, "/**/RPC2", inadvertently allows any request ending with /RPC2 to bypass authorization​.
  • The endpoint /app/rest/users/<userLocator>/tokens/RPC2 works because the endpoint's route /app/rest/users/{userLocator}/tokens/{name} accepts the path variable {name} at the end. This variable could be any string, but to achieve authentication bypass, it is set to RPC2.
  • Attackers can exploit this by creating an authentication token for any user via the request POST /app/rest/users/<userLocator>/tokens/RPC2​.
  • The response provides an authentication token for the specified user, granting them application access​.
  • A debug API endpoint allowed arbitrary process execution when the rest.debug.processes.enable the property was set to truethe by an Admin user, followed by a config reload resulting in arbitrary code execution on the server.
