Raw Blame History

Description

This module scans for the Apache optionsbleed vulnerability where the Allow response header returned from an OPTIONS request may bleed memory if the server has a .htaccess file with an invalid Limit method defined.

Vulnerable Application Setup

This setup is slightly more complex than a default instance, but potentially gives more interesting results. It is more or less based on a blog post by securitysift.com.

This setup was performed on an Ubuntu 16.04 server with apache 2.4.18-2ubuntu3.1. Apache was patched in 2.4.18-2ubuntu3.5

  1. First thing we'll do is create 2 virtual host directories with content

    sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/s1
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/s2

echo "<Limit method0 method1 method2 method3 method4 method5>
  Allow from all
</Limit>" | sudo tee /var/www/html/s1/.htaccess

echo "
<html>
<h1>Attacker</h1>
</html>
" | sudo tee /var/www/html/s1/index.html

echo "
<?php
        \$user = \$_POST[\"username\"];
        \$pwd = \$_POST[\"password\"];
        \$otherdata = \$_POST[\"otherdata\"];     
?>
        <form action=\"index.php\" method=\"POST\">
                Otherdata: <input type=\"text\" name=\"otherdata\"><br>
                Username: <input type=\"text\" name=\"username\"><br>
                Password: <input type=\"text\" name=\"password\"><br>
                <input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\">
        </form>
" | sudo tee  /var/www/html/s2/index.php

  2. Now we'll modify apache to have 2 virtual hosts, an attacker on port 80 and victim on port 81

    sudo echo "Listen 80
Listen 81

<VirtualHost *:81>
  #victim
  DocumentRoot /var/www/html/s2
  ErrorLog \${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error_victim.log
  CustomLog \${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access_victim.log combined
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
  #attacker
  DocumentRoot /var/www/html/s1
  ErrorLog \${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error_attacker.log
  CustomLog \${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access_attacker.log combined
  <Directory /var/www/html/s1>
    AllowOverride All
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>
" | sudo tee /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

  3. Restart the service

sudo service apache2 restart

  1. We'll want to generate some traffic to the victim, so we'll use an infinite loop to send fake login requests

    while true; do curl -d "otherdata=otherdata&username=admin&password=passw0rd" -X POST -s http://[IP]:81/index.php > /dev/null; done

Now you have 2 virtual hosts, a vulnerable .htaccess file on port 80 in root, and memory being churned to simulate a live host.

Verification Steps

  1. Do: use auxiliary/scanner/http/apache_optionsbleed
  2. Do: set RHOSTS [IP]
  3. Do: set RPORT [PORT]
  4. Do: run

Scenarios

Using the setup mentioned previously

Cleanup

If the server is NOT vulnerable, the apache error logs will contain an entry similar to this:
