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

This module is a scanner module, and is capable of testing against multiple hosts.

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/sap/sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles
msf auxiliary(sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles) > show options
    ... show and set options ...
msf auxiliary(sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles) > set RHOSTS ip-range
msf auxiliary(sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles) > exploit

Other examples of setting the RHOSTS option:

Example 1:

msf auxiliary(sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.3-192.168.1.200

Example 2:

msf auxiliary(sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles) > set RHOSTS 192.168.1.1/24

Example 3:

msf auxiliary(sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles) > set RHOSTS file:/tmp/ip_list.txt

Required Options

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

Knowledge Base

Vulnerable Application

This applies to all versions of SAP software.

The SAP Management Console (SAP MC) provides a common framework for centralized system management. It allows you to monitor and perform basic administration tasks on the SAP system centrally, which simplifies system administration. (https://help.sap.com/doc/saphelp_nwpi711/7.1.1/en-US/fa/ec218eb89b4424a9a0b423b0643952/frameset.htm)

SAP exposes an API on port tcp/50013 with the SOAP Management Console. Some webmethods are authenticated with a valid login/password and others are unauthenticated and reacheable by default.

With this module you can list the config files that SAP loads when starts the SAP server. This unauthenticated information disclosure can be used in a more advanced attack to get knowledge about in which paths SAP stores the config files to, for example, retrieve sensitive data or trojanize the startup process.

Verification Steps

Example steps:

  1. Install the SAP application. SAP provides a docker container for development purposes: https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/hxe-ua-install-using-docker.html
  2. Start msfconsole
  3. Do: use auxiliary/scanner/sap/sap_mgmt_con_listconfigfiles
  4. Set up the server IP: set RHOSTS 192.168.10.45
  5. Do: run
  6. You will receive the list of SAP configuration files on the server.

Options

RHOSTS: Set up which server or servers do you want to test

RPORT: Port tcp/50013 set up by default

In case of more advanced deployments you can set up the SSL parameters here:

SSL: Set to true
