Heap Overflow Vulnerability in Citrix NetScaler Gateway (CVE-2017-7219)

After presenting my findings on the Swisscom router at the CybSecConference last year, I started looking for a new product to analyze. I quickly found that it’s possible to download virtual “demo” appliances of Citrix products, so I went on to download a Netscaler VPX, which at the time was at version 11.10 (b50.10). The goal as always was to discover a way to compromise the device remotely, which is what led me to discover a heap overflow vulnerability which allows an authenticated user to compromise the device with root privileges. During the research, I (un)fortunately wasn’t able to find a way to exploit the flaw without credentials.

SecureIT – Valais

Voici les slides de ma présentation de Vendredi dernier pour Secure-IT. J’y ai présenté quelques-unes des techniques les plus communément exploitées en test d’intrusion pour compromettre un domaine Windows ainsi que les différentes remédiations possibles.

CybSec16

La Cybsec16 est maintenant terminée et toute l’équipe SCRT présente a de nouveau passé un bon moment en compagnie de différents acteurs du monde de la sécurité en suisse romande (et un peu au delà). Une excellente organisation, des conférences intéressantes et diversifiées ainsi que les divers events “networking” ont largement contribué au succès de l’événement.

Insomni’hack 2016 teaser results

Last weekend saw the year’s CTF competitions begin with our very own Insomni’hack teaser. Given some of the recent absurdities (http://weputachipinit.tumblr.com/) we decided to go with the Internet of Things as our theme this year.

PHDays Finals 2014 Homepage + Breadcrumbs Tasks Writeup

We’re going to look at two of the tasks of the PHDays finals, namely breadcrumbs which we solved and homepage, which unfortunately we were not able to solve during the CTF, though the solution seems to be correct. If you have any additional information on this particular task, I’d love to have your comments : @plopz0r.

S’étant qualifiés en ligne pour les finales, quelques ingénieurs de SCRT se sont rendus à Moscou pour participer avec l’équipe “w3stormz” à la finale du concours de piratage éthique PHDays.

NeDi Remote Code Execution

During a recent intrusion test, we discovered that NeDi was used in our target infrastructure. Since this application’s source code is freely available on the developer’s website (www.nedi.ch) I thought I’d have a look and see whether it would be possible to take control of a server through it.

Remote Command Execution in HP TippingPoint Security Management System

During a recent security audit, SCRT discovered a TippingPoint SMS server that exposed a famously exploitable JBoss invoker to any unauthenticated user. By using this invoker, it is possible to upload new applications on the server that are then run with the permissions of the JBoss application server (which happens to be running as root in this case). The server can then be compromised entirely by uploading new files into the SMS application’s folder and then accessing them through a Web browser. This could be done with the help of a very practical tool called jimmix which makes it possible to invoke commands on a JBoss server from the command line.
