Metasploit

descriptionThis module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in the `dtappgather` executable included with Common Desktop Environment (CDE) on unpatched Solaris systems prior to Solaris 10u11 which allows users to gain root privileges. dtappgather allows users to create a user-owned directory at any location on the filesystem using the `DTUSERSESSION` environment variable. This module creates a directory in `/usr/lib/locale`, writes a shared object to the directory, and runs the specified SUID binary with the shared object loaded using the `LC_TIME` environment variable. This module has been tested successfully on: Solaris 9u7 (09/04) (x86); Solaris 10u1 (01/06) (x86); Solaris 10u2 (06/06) (x86); Solaris 10u4 (08/07) (x86); Solaris 10u8 (10/09) (x86); Solaris 10u9 (09/10) (x86).

    descriptionThe remote Solaris host is missing patch number 152649-02. It is, therefore, affected by a local privilege escalation vulnerability in the dtappgather binary due to improper handling of user-supplied arguments. A local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted command, to manipulate file permissions and create a user-owned directory anywhere on the system with root privileges. The attacker can then add shared objects to the folder and run setuid binaries with a library file, resulting in root privileges. EXTREMEPARR is one of multiple Equation Group vulnerabilities and exploits disclosed on 2017/04/08 by a group known as the Shadow Brokers.
