CVE-2021-26420: Remote Code Execution in Sharepoint via workflow compilation
👤 by The ZDI Research Team

In June of 2021, Microsoft released a patch to correct CVE-2021-26420 – a remote code execution bug in the supported versions of Microsoft SharePoint Server. This bug was reported to the ZDI program by an anonymous researcher and is also known as ZDI-21-755. This blog takes a deeper look at the root cause of this vulnerability.
This vulnerability could be used by an authenticated user to execute arbitrary .NET code on the server in the context and permissions of the service account of a SharePoint web application. For a successful attack, the attacker should have “Manage Lists” permissions on any SharePoint site. By default, any authenticated user can create their own site where they have the necessary permissions.

• Achieving Remote Code Execution

PHP-FPM Local Root Vulnerability

👤 by Charles Fol

PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is the official PHP FastCGI server. It is used in conjunction with an HTTP server such as Apache or NGINX to handle the processing of PHP files. It generally listens for connections over either a UNIX socket or on TCP port 9000. When the HTTP server needs to run a PHP file, it will forward parameters, such as the file path, PHP variables, and configuration to PHP-FPM, which will send back a response.

A low-privilege process can read and write an array of pointers used by the main process, running as root, through shared memory. An attacker can leverage this problem to change a 32-bit integer from zero to one in the main process's memory, or clear a memory region. By leveraging the primitive multiple times, it is possible to reach another bug, make the main process execute code, and thus escalate privileges.

Due to the growing adoption of NGINX instead of Apache, a good look at PHP-FPM was in order. An oversight in the design of the shared memory region lead to half-decent exploitation primitives, which in turn lead to a root privilege escalation.
