PHP Object Injection Revival

1. PHP Object Injection REVIVAL Claudio Salazar
2. Whois • CEO and co-founder @alertot • Founder @spect.cl • Open-source contributor
3. Agenda • Quick intro to serialization • Current problem • Gadgets' shape • poiwer, the tool
4. Disclaimer I’m not expert in PHP! Quick intro
5. What is serialization? • Serialization was thought to transport objects. • It creates a string representation of any data type. • Deserialization is the inverse process. Quick intro
6. Equation $variable <-> unserialize(serialize($variable)); (most cases) Quick intro
7. Problem The problem happens when a program unserializes untrusted data. In a normal flow, the program expects to create X but eventually creates Z. Quick intro
8. Exploitation It’s called PHP Object Injection (POI). The exploitation is carried out through Property-oriented Programming (PoP). Quick intro
9. Property-oriented Programming • It reuses classes available in the project. • Classes with interesting methods are the gadgets. • Interesting methods are driven by controlled data. • The goal is to chain objects to achieve something. Quick intro
10. Magic methods Methods with magic powers, according to PHP documentation. The two more famous in POI are: 1. __destruct() 2. __wakeup()
11. Example 1/5 class Writer { public $data; function save($filename) { file_put_contents($filename, $this->data); } } class Document { public $filename; public $handler; function __destruct() { $this->handler->save($this->filename); } } Quick intro Both classes are part of the app
12. Example 2/5 $w = new Writer; $w->data = 'hello'; $m = new Document; $m->filename = '/tmp/file'; $m->handler = $w; Quick intro
13. Example 3/5 class Writer { public $data = ‘hello’; function save($filename) { file_put_contents($filename, $this->data); } } class Document { public $filename = ‘/tmp/file’; public $handler = new Writer; function __destruct() { $this->handler->save($this->filename); } } Quick intro
14. Example 4/5 $serializedData = serialize($m); O:8:"Document":2:{ s:8:"filename";s:9:"/tmp/file"; s:7:"handler";O:6:"Writer":1:{ s:4:"data";s:5:"hello"; } } Quick intro
15. Example 5/5 unserialize($serializedData); $ cat /tmp/file hello Quick intro
16. Clarifications • We work only with available classes (no code creation). • We can set any kind of property in class. • Distinction between data and functions. Quick intro
17. Exploitation methods * (https://blog.secarma.co.uk/labs/near-phar-dangerous-unserialization-wherever-you-are) Quick intro unserialize function phar files *
18. Exploitation methods * (https://blog.secarma.co.uk/labs/near-phar-dangerous-unserialization-wherever-you-are) **(https://www.evonide.com/how-we-broke-php-hacked-pornhub-and-earned-20000-dollar/) Quick intro - Serialized string - Exploit unserialize() function ** unserialize function phar files *
19. Current problem
20. Motivation $request = unserialize($myData); $request = other_function($request['green']); Problem
21. General solution Autoloading Problem
22. Solution to motivation Find what Wordpress plugins must be present to turn the deserialization exploitable. Problem
23. Gadget’s shape
24. Example explanation 1. class ExpectedClass { carrot } 2. $instance = new ExpectedClass; 3. $my_data = serialize($instance); 4. $obj = unserialize($my_data); 5. some operation on carrot! Gadget’s shape
25. Magic methods 102 Magic methods are more than __destruct() and __wakeup(), let’s go to find other gems! Magic methods
26. Definition __get() is utilized for reading data from inaccessible properties. Magic methods - __get()
27. Use case $obj = unserialize($my_data); $attrib = $obj->carrot; Magic methods - __get()
28. Expected class class ExpectedClass { public $carrot = 123; } Magic methods - __get()
29. Unexpected class class UnexpectedClass { // no $carrot public attribute function __get($key = ‘carrot’) { [...] } } Magic methods - __get()
30. Real-world example (1/2) class ValidGenerator { public function __get($attribute) { return $this->__call($attribute, array()); } } * fzaninotto/faker/src/Faker/ValidGenerator.php Magic methods - __get()
31. Real-world example (2/2) public function __call($name, $arguments){ do { $res = call_user_func_array( array($this->generator, $name), $arguments ); [...] } while (!call_user_func($this->validator, $res)); } * fzaninotto/faker/src/Faker/ValidGenerator.php Magic methods - __get()
32. __set method __set() is run when writing data to inaccessible properties. Magic methods
33. Use case $obj = unserialize($my_data); $obj->carrot = 123; Magic methods - __set()
34. Expected class class ExpectedClass { public $carrot; } Magic methods - __set()
35. Unexpected class class UnexpectedClass { // no $carrot public attribute function __set( key = ‘carrot’, $value = ‘123’) { [...] } } Magic methods - __set()
36. Real-world example class CI_Session { public function __set($key, $value) { $_SESSION[$key] = $value; } } * CodeIgniter-3.1.9/system/libraries/Session/Session.php Magic methods - __set()
37. Similar magic methods __isset($key) -> isset() or empty() __unset($key) -> unset() Magic methods
38. __call method __call() is triggered when invoking inaccessible methods in an object context. Almost the same for __callStatic(). Magic methods
39. Use case $obj = unserialize($my_data); $obj->carrot(); Magic methods - __call()
40. Expected class class ExpectedClass { public function carrot() { return ‘hello’; } } Magic methods - __call()
41. Unexpected class class UnexpectedClass { public function carrot() { return ‘bye’; } } Magic methods - __call()
42. Unexpected class class UnexpectedClass { // no carrot method public function __call($key = ‘carrot’, $args) { [...] } } Magic methods - __call()
43. Real-world example class TraceableEventDispatcher { public function __call($method, $arguments) { return \call_user_func_array( array($this->dispatcher, $method), $arguments ); } } * symfony/event-dispatcher/Debug/TraceableEventDispatcher.php Magic methods - __call()
44. Definition __toString() method allows a class to decide how it will react when it is treated like a string. Magic methods - __toString()
45. Use case $obj = unserialize($my_data); echo $obj; Magic methods - __toString()
46. Expected value $carrot = ‘hello’; Magic methods - __toString()
47. Unexpected class class UnexpectedClass { public function __toString() { return ‘bye’; } } Magic methods - __toString()
48. Sets Sets are related gadgets given by the use of an interface or class.
49. Sets The array set
50. Scenario The program thinks it’s working on a normal array. The array set
51. Foundations The ArrayAccess interface Interface to provide accessing objects as arrays. Also found in: ArrayObject class. The array set
52. Cases $theArray = unserialize($my_data); $v = $theArray[$key]; offsetGet($key) $theArray[$key] = 1; offsetSet($key, value) empty($theArray[$key]); offsetExists($key) unset($theArray[$key]); offsetUnset($key) The array set
53. Caution It’s not a real array. The array set
54. Sets The iterator set
55. Scenario The program thinks it’s working on a normal array. The iterator set
56. Case $theArray = unserialize($my_data); foreach($theArray as $element) {...} The iterator set
57. Foundations The Traversable interface Interface to detect if a class is traversable using foreach. Also found in: Iterator, IteratorAggregate interfaces and ArrayObject class. The iterator set
58. Gadget #1 class Example implements Iterator { function current () {...} function key () {...} function next () {...} function rewind () {...} function valid () {...} } The iterator set
59. Gadget #2 class Example implements IteratorAggregate { function getIterator () {...} } The iterator set
60. Real-world example: Symfony Console class TableRows implements \IteratorAggregate { public function getIterator() { $g = $this->generator; return $g(); } } * symfony/console/Helper/TableRows.php The iterator set
61. Sets The json set
62. Scenario The program encodes a variable as a JSON string. The json set
63. Case $obj = unserialize($my_data); $jsonString = json_encode($obj); The json set
64. Foundations The JsonSerializable interface Can customize their JSON representation when encoded with json_encode(). The json set
65. Gadget class Example implements JsonSerializable { function jsonSerialize () {...} } The json set
66. Real-world example: CakePHP Mailer class Email implements JsonSerializable, Serializable { public function jsonSerialize() { array_walk($array['_attachments'], function (&$item, $key) { if (!empty($item['file'])) { $item['data'] = $this->_readFile($item['file']); unset($item['file']); } }); } } * cakephp/cakephp/src/Mailer/Email.php The json set
67. Additional sets • Serializable interface & unserialize() • new statement & __construct() • Countable interface & count()
68. Additional ideas • Combine seen gadgets as you want • Gadgets chaining in an array
