Public Exploits


Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (GitHub)
Exploit Ease: Exploits (PoCs) are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the IBM MQ 8.0 <= 8.0.0.10 / 9.0.1 <= 9.0.5 CD / 9.0 <= 9.0.0.5 LTS / 9.1.0.0 LTS (734447) vulnerability:

  1. GitHub: https://github.com/mirchr/security-research
    [CVE-2018-1792]

Before running any exploit against any system, make sure you are authorized by the owner of the target system(s) to perform such activity. In any other case, this would be considered as an illegal activity.

WARNING: Beware of using unverified exploits from sources such as GitHub or Exploit-DB. These exploits and PoCs could contain malware. For more information, see how to use exploits safely.

How to Run


Here is how to run the IBM MQ 8.0 <= 8.0.0.10 / 9.0.1 <= 9.0.5 CD / 9.0 <= 9.0.0.5 LTS / 9.1.0.0 LTS (734447) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

  1. Click to start a New Scan.
  2. Select Advanced Scan.
  3. Navigate to the Plugins tab.
  4. On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
  5. On the left side table select Misc. plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select IBM MQ 8.0 <= 8.0.0.10 / 9.0.1 <= 9.0.5 CD / 9.0 <= 9.0.0.5 LTS / 9.1.0.0 LTS (734447) plugin ID 145052.
  7. Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
  8. Run the scan.

Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.

Basic usage:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl ibm_mq_734447.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a ibm_mq_734447.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - ibm_mq_734447.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state ibm_mq_734447.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
