SickRage < v2018-09-03 allows an attacker to view a user's saved Github credentials in HTTP responses unless the user has set login information for SickRage. By default, SickRage does not require login information for the installation.

Module Ranking and Traits

Module Ranking:

  • normal: The exploit is otherwise reliable, but depends on a specific version and can't (or doesn't) reliably autodetect. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/http/http_sickrage_password_leak
msf auxiliary(http_sickrage_password_leak) > show targets
    ... a list of targets ...
msf auxiliary(http_sickrage_password_leak) > set TARGET target-id
msf auxiliary(http_sickrage_password_leak) > show options
    ... show and set options ...
msf auxiliary(http_sickrage_password_leak) > exploit

Required Options

  • RHOSTS: The target host(s), range CIDR identifier, or hosts file with syntax 'file:<path>'

Knowledge Base

Description

This module exploits a vulnerability in SickRage for versions under v2018-03-09. A simple GET request will return clear-text credentials for Github, Kodi, Plex, AniDB, etc. This exploit will only work if the user has not set credentials for the SickRage application. By default, SickRage credentials are not set.

Vulnerable Application

SickRage < v2018-03-09

Installation and Setup

The vulnerable versions of SickRage are no longer accessible, but the latest release can be made vulnerable with a few changes. The latest SickRage release for Windows can be found here.

  9. Change the value from ${sickbeard.ANIDB_PASSWORD|hide} to ${sickbeard.ANIDB_PASSWORD}
  10. Save the changes
  11. Open config_notifications.mako
  12. Find the input element with the name kodi_password
  13. Change the value from ${sickbeard.KODI_PASSWORD|hide} to ${sickbeard.KODI_PASSWORD}
  14. Find the input element with the name plex_server_password
  15. Change the value from ${sickbeard.PLEX_SERVER_PASSWORD|hide} to ${sickbeard.PLEX_SERVER_PASSWORD}
  16. Find the input element with the name plex_client_password
  17. Change the value from ${sickbeard.PLEX_CLIENT_PASSWORD|hide} to ${sickbeard.PLEX_CLIENT_PASSWORD}
  18. Find the input element with the name email_password
  19. Change the value from ${sickbeard.EMAIL_PASSWORD|hide} to ${sickbeard.EMAIL_PASSWORD}
  20. Save the changes
  21. Start SickRage
  22. Start msfconsole
  23. Do: use [auxiliary/scanner/http/http_sickrage_password_leak]
  24. Do: set RHOSTS [IP]
  25. Do: run
  26. The credentials that the user has set should be printed to the screen
