Threat: Email-Worm.Win32.Plexus.b
Vulnerability: Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution
Description: The malware listens on TCP ports 1250 (file write
port) and 47435 (random FTP port). Third-party attackers who can
reach infected systems can use a socket program to write binary
data to the remote host. The malware then writes that data to a
file named "_up.exe" under "\Users\Victim\AppData\Local\Temp" that
executes immediately.
Exploitation requires a few things for our code to run successfully, as there seems to be a file size limitation and header issues.
1) Create a very small executable using masm32 in assembly.
2) Pack it using fsg13
3) Prefix our payload with a DOS "MZ" header and "ETX" control char
in hex "\x03" followed by two NULL bytes, as it doesn't write the
MZ header correctly.
4) Use python to read in our EXE payload and push to the infected
host.
Type: PE32
MD5: ee8990b5d076a7ed601a30eb677cc9be
Vuln ID: MVID-2021-0400
Disclosure: 11/07/2021
Exploit/PoC:
1) "DOOM.asm" compiled with masm32.
include \masm32\include\masm32rt.inc
.data
HATE db "Masm32:", 0
MyReal8 REAL8 123.456
.data?
aDword dd ?
.code
start:
invoke MessageBox, 0, chr$("DOOM!"), addr HATE, MB_OK
mov eax, 123
exit
end start
2) Pack DOOM.exe using FSG13.
3) Connect to the infected system and push our own PE file.
