## Description
This module attempts to gain root privileges on Linux systems by abusing a vulnerability in the GNU C Library (glibc) dynamic linker - aka glibc `$ORIGIN` expansion vulnerability.
## Vulnerable Application
glibc `ld.so` in versions before 2.11.3, and 2.12.x before 2.12.2 does not properly restrict use of the `LD_AUDIT` environment variable when loading setuid executables. This allows control over the `$ORIGIN` library search path resulting in execution of arbitrary shared objects.
This module opens a file descriptor to the specified suid executable via a hard link, then replaces the hard link with a shared object before instructing the linker to execute the file descriptor, resulting in arbitrary code execution.
The specified setuid binary must be readable and located on the same file system partition as the specified writable directory.
This module has been tested successfully on:
* glibc 2.5 on CentOS 5.4 (x86_64)
* glibc 2.5 on CentOS 5.5 (x86_64)
* glibc 2.12 on Fedora 13 (i386, x86_64)
RHEL 5 is reportedly affected, but untested.
Some versions of `ld.so` hit a failed assertion in `dl_open_worker` causing exploitation to fail.
## Verification Steps
1. Start `msfconsole`
2. Get a session
3. Do: `use exploit/linux/local/glibc_origin_expansion_priv_esc`
4. Do: `set SESSION [SESSION]`
5. Do: `check`
6. Do: `run`
7. You should get a new *root* session
## Options
**SESSION**
Which session to use, which can be viewed with `sessions`
**WritableDir**
A writable directory file system path. (default: `/tmp`)
## Scenarios
```
msf > use exploit/linux/local/glibc_origin_expansion_priv_esc
msf exploit(linux/local/glibc_origin_expansion_priv_esc) > set session 1
session => 1
msf exploit(linux/local/glibc_origin_expansion_priv_esc) > run
