Synopsis

The remote host has an application that is affected by multiple unspecified vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host contains a version of Oracle VM VirtualBox that is prior to 3.2.24, 4.0.26, 4.1.34, 4.2.26 or 4.3.14. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- An unspecified flaw relating to the Core subcomponent that may allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2014-2487, CVE-2014-4261)

- An unspecified flaw relating to the Core subcomponent that may allow a local attacker to have an impact on integrity and availability. (CVE-2014-2486, CVE-2014-2477, CVE-2014-2489)

- An unspecified flaw relating to the Core subcomponent that may allow a local attacker to gain access to sensitive information. (CVE-2014-2488)

- An unspecified flaw relating to the Graphics driver for Windows guests that may allow a local attacker to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. (CVE-2014-4228)

Solution

Upgrade Oracle VM VirtualBox to 3.2.24 / 4.0.26 / 4.1.34 / 4.2.26 / 4.3.14 or later.

Public Exploits


Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (Metasploit Framework, Exploit-DB, Immunity Canvas, Core Impact)
Exploit Ease: Exploits are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the Oracle VM VirtualBox < 3.2.24 / 4.0.26 / 4.1.34 / 4.2.26 / 4.3.14 Multiple Unspecified Vulnerabilities vulnerability:

  1. Metasploit: exploit/windows/local/virtual_box_guest_additions
    [VirtualBox Guest Additions VBoxGuest.sys Privilege Escalation]
  2. Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/local/34333.rb
    [EDB-34333: Oracle VM VirtualBox Guest Additions 4.3.10r93012 - 'VBoxGuest.sys' Local Privilege Escalation (Metasploit)]
  3. Immunity Canvas: CANVAS

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 Oracle VM VirtualBox < 3.2.24 / 4.0.26 / 4.1.34 / 4.2.26 / 4.3.14 Multiple Unspecified Vulnerabilities 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 Windows plugin family.
  6. On the right side table select Oracle VM VirtualBox < 3.2.24 / 4.0.26 / 4.1.34 / 4.2.26 / 4.3.14 Multiple Unspecified Vulnerabilities plugin ID 76536.
  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 virtualbox_4_3_14.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a virtualbox_4_3_14.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

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

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - virtualbox_4_3_14.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 virtualbox_4_3_14.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
