CVE-2021-21972 vSphere Client RCE复现，附POC & EXP

漏洞简介

vSphere 是 VMware 推出的虚拟化平台套件，包含 ESXi、vCenter Server 等一系列的软件。其中 vCenter Server 为 ESXi 的控制中心，可从单一控制点统一管理数据中心的所有 vSphere 主机和虚拟机。

vSphere Client（HTML5） 在 vCenter Server 插件中存在一个远程执行代码漏洞。未授权的攻击者可以通过开放 443 端口的服务器向 vCenter Server 发送精心构造的请求，写入webshell，控制服务器。

影响范围

VMware vCenter Server: 7.0/6.7/6.5

漏洞分析

vCenter Server中的vrops插件存在一些未鉴定权限的敏感接口，其中uploadova接口具有文件上传功能。

    @RequestMapping(
        value = {"/uploadova"},
        method = {RequestMethod.POST}
    )
    public void uploadOvaFile(@RequestParam(value = "uploadFile",required = true) CommonsMultipartFile uploadFile, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
        logger.info("Entering uploadOvaFile api");
        int code = uploadFile.isEmpty() ? 400 : 200;
        PrintWriter wr = null;
...
        response.setStatus(code);
        String returnStatus = "SUCCESS";
        if (!uploadFile.isEmpty()) {
            try {
                logger.info("Downloading OVA file has been started");
                logger.info("Size of the file received  : " + uploadFile.getSize());
                InputStream inputStream = uploadFile.getInputStream();
                File dir = new File("/tmp/unicorn_ova_dir");
                if (!dir.exists()) {
                    dir.mkdirs();
                } else {
                    String[] entries = dir.list();
                    String[] var9 = entries;
                    int var10 = entries.length;

                    for(int var11 = 0; var11 < var10; ++var11) {
                        String entry = var9[var11];
                        File currentFile = new File(dir.getPath(), entry);
                        currentFile.delete();
                    }

                    logger.info("Successfully cleaned : /tmp/unicorn_ova_dir");
                }

                TarArchiveInputStream in = new TarArchiveInputStream(inputStream);
                TarArchiveEntry entry = in.getNextTarEntry();
                ArrayList result = new ArrayList();

代码中，将tar文件解压后，上传到/tmp/unicorn_ova_dir目录

                while(entry != null) {
                    if (entry.isDirectory()) {
                        entry = in.getNextTarEntry();
                    } else {
                        File curfile = new File("/tmp/unicorn_ova_dir", entry.getName());
                        File parent = curfile.getParentFile();
                        if (!parent.exists()) {
                            parent.mkdirs();

上述代码直接将tar解压的文件名与/tmp/unicorn_ova_dir拼接并写入文件，这里可以使用../绕过目录限制。

若目标为Linux环境，可以创建一个文件名为../../home/vsphere-ui/.ssh/authorized_keys的tar文件，上传后即可使用SSH连接服务器。
