Samsung Note 9 (SM-N9600) poc

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hi @chompie1337, thank you for such a great work. It's pretty useful to obtain the root privileges without ticking KNOX.

I want to adapt your poc for Samsung Note 9 (SM-N9600) (Android version 8.1.0, Kernel version 4.9.65-14505206 (gcc version 4.9.x 20150123 (prerelease) (GCC)) Tue Jan 8 16:29:04 KST 2019, Android security patch level January 1, 2019, Baseband version N9600ZCU1ARL3, Build Number: N9600ZHU1ASA5) to modify my build.prop.

I'm not very familiar with the Android kernel, so I'm wondering, how did you find DECISION_AVC_CACHE_OFFSET? It seems that I found every offset except for this.

(There is no N9600ZHU1ASA5 version on opensource.samsung.com so I took N9600ZHU1ARL1 from https://github.com/klabit87/twrp_android_kernel_samsung_crownqltechn)

At this point, my phone reboots while s8_poc is running:

crownqltechn:/sdcard/USER/cve $ cp s8_poc /data/local/tmp/s8_poc
crownqltechn:/sdcard/USER/cve $ cd /data/local/tmp
crownqltechn:/data/local/tmp $ chmod +x s8_poc
crownqltechn:/data/local/tmp $ ./s8_poc -s
[+] options are set, we're ready to go :)
[!] attempting to exploit bad binder...

epoll_ctl(iEpFd, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, iBinderFd, &epoll_ev); WITH ARGUMENTS iEpFd=4, EPOLL_CTL_DEL=2, iBinderFd=3, &epoll_ev

I would be glad if you find some time to help.

The following result I got with https://github.com/magicxor/qu1ckr00t/blob/0ed56c759a6e5877c5ec82c096553e8e4e778104/native/poc.c

Escalating...

Then my phone rebooted.
Kernel R/W works:

crownqltechn:/ $ uname -a
Linux localhost 4.9.65-14505206 EXPLOITED KERNEL aarch64

But the phone reboots every time I try to overwrite my IDs:

  // change IDs to root (there are eight)
  for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
    kernel_write_uint(my_cred+4 + i*4, 0);

or

  kernel_write_ulong(pSecurityCapableListHead, pSecurityCapableListHead)

Hi, the reason your phone reboots with the quickr00t PoC is because the cred structures are protected with Samsung Knox, so they cant just be simply overwritten. Hence the need for the special bypasses in this PoC. the bad binder exploitation method changes slightly depending on the mod of the offset of wait_head structure (ending in 0x0 or 0x8). At some point, I will release this PoC that is compatible with the S8 exynos. The oreo firmwares for the S8 exynos have the offset that require the other type of bad binder exploitation. If you want, you can simply replace the method for obtaining R/W from quickr00t into this PoC.
