OneGadget

When playing ctf pwn challenges we usually need the one-gadget RCE (remote code execution), which leads to call execve('/bin/sh', NULL, NULL).

This gem provides such gadgets finder, no need to use objdump or IDA-pro every time like a fool 😉

To use this tool, type one_gadget /path/to/libc in command line and enjoy the magic 😆

Installation

Available on RubyGems.org!

$ gem install one_gadget

Note: requires ruby version >= 2.1.0, you can use ruby --version to check.

Supported Architectures

  • i386
  • amd64 (x86-64)
  • aarch64 (ARMv8)

Implementation

OneGadget uses symbolic execution to find the constraints of gadgets to be successful.

The article introducing how I develop this tool can be found on my blog.

Usage

Command Line Interface

$ one_gadget
# Usage: one_gadget <FILE|-b BuildID> [options]
#     -b, --build-id BuildID           BuildID[sha1] of libc.
#     -f, --[no-]force-file            Force search gadgets in file instead of build id first.
#     -l, --level OUTPUT_LEVEL         The output level.
#                                      OneGadget automatically selects gadgets with higher successful probability.
#                                      Increase this level to ask OneGadget show more gadgets it found.
#                                      Default: 0
#     -n, --near FUNCTIONS/FILE        Order gadgets by their distance to the given functions or to the GOT functions of the given file.
#     -r, --[no-]raw                   Output gadgets offset only, split with one space.
#     -s, --script exploit-script      Run exploit script with all possible gadgets.
#                                      The script will be run as 'exploit-script $offset'.
#         --info BuildID               Show version information given BuildID.
#         --base BASE_ADDRESS          The base address of libc.
#                                      Default: 0
#         --version                    Current gem version.

Gadgets Near Functions

Why

Consider this scenario when exploiting:

  1. Able to write on GOT (Global Offset Table)
  2. Base address of libc is unknown

In this scenario you can choose to write two low-byte on a GOT entry with one-gadget's two low-byte. If the function offset on GOT is close enough with the one-gadget, you will have at least 1/16 chance of success.

Usage

Reorder gadgets according to the distance of given functions.

$ one_gadget /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 --near exit,mkdir
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near exit(0x43120):
# 0x4f2c5 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
#   rsp & 0xf == 0
#   rcx == NULL
#
# 0x4f322 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
#   [rsp+0x40] == NULL
#
# 0x10a38c execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x70, environ)
# constraints:
#   [rsp+0x70] == NULL
#
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near mkdir(0x10fbb0):
# 0x10a38c execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x70, environ)
# constraints:
#   [rsp+0x70] == NULL
#
# 0x4f322 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
#   [rsp+0x40] == NULL
#
# 0x4f2c5 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
#   rsp & 0xf == 0
#   rcx == NULL
#

near

Regular expression is acceptable.

$ one_gadget /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 --near 'write.*' --raw
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near writev(0x1166a0):
# 1090444 324386 324293
#
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near write(0x110140):
# 1090444 324386 324293
#

Pass an ELF file as the argument, OneGadget will take all GOT functions for processing.

$ one_gadget /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 --near spec/data/test_near_file.elf --raw
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near exit(0x43120):

#

# 324386 324293 1090444
#
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near strlen(0x9dc70):
# 324386 324293 1090444
#

# 324293 324386 1090444
#
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near __libc_start_main(0x21ab0):
# 324293 324386 1090444

Show All Gadgets

Sometimes one_gadget finds too many gadgets to show them in one screen, by default gadgets would be filtered automatically according to the difficulty of constraints.

Use option --level 1 to show all gadgets found instead of only those with higher probabilities.

$ one_gadget /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 --level 1
# 0x4f2c5 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
#   rsp & 0xf == 0
#   rcx == NULL
#
# 0x4f322 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
#   [rsp+0x40] == NULL
#
# 0xe569f execve("/bin/sh", r14, r12)
# constraints:
#   [r14] == NULL || r14 == NULL
#   [r12] == NULL || r12 == NULL
#
# 0xe5858 execve("/bin/sh", [rbp-0x88], [rbp-0x70])
# constraints:
#   [[rbp-0x88]] == NULL || [rbp-0x88] == NULL
#   [[rbp-0x70]] == NULL || [rbp-0x70] == NULL
#
# 0xe585f execve("/bin/sh", r10, [rbp-0x70])
# constraints:
#   [r10] == NULL || r10 == NULL
#   [[rbp-0x70]] == NULL || [rbp-0x70] == NULL
#
# 0xe5863 execve("/bin/sh", r10, rdx)
# constraints:
#   [r10] == NULL || r10 == NULL
#   [rdx] == NULL || rdx == NULL
#
# 0x10a38c execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x70, environ)
# constraints:
#   [rsp+0x70] == NULL
#
# 0x10a398 execve("/bin/sh", rsi, [rax])
# constraints:

#   [[rax]] == NULL || [rax] == NULL

Combine with Script

Pass your exploit script as one_gadget's arguments, it can try all gadgets one by one, so you don't need to try every possible gadgets manually.

$ one_gadget ./spec/data/libc-2.19.so -s 'echo "offset ->"'

--script

In Ruby Scripts

require 'one_gadget'
OneGadget.gadgets(file: '/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6')
#=> [324293, 324386, 1090444]

# or in shorter way
one_gadget('/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6', level: 1)
#=> [324293, 324386, 939679, 940120, 940127, 940131, 1090444, 1090456]

# from build id
one_gadget('b417c0ba7cc5cf06d1d1bed6652cedb9253c60d0')
#=> [324293, 324386, 1090444]

To Python Lovers

import subprocess
def one_gadget(filename):
  return [int(i) for i in subprocess.check_output(['one_gadget', '--raw', filename]).decode().split(' ')]

one_gadget('/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6')
#=> [324293, 324386, 1090444]
