Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2020-7115 is a vulnerability in the ClearPass Policy Manager web interface that allows an attacker to bypass authentication controls. Upon successful authentication bypass, the attacker can execute remote commands on the underlying operating system, leading to full system compromise. The vulnerability affects versions prior to 6.7.13-HF, 6.8.5-HF, 6.8.6, and 6.9.1.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2020-7115, targeting OpenSSL's engine loading mechanism to achieve argument injection and arbitrary code execution. The repository contains three files: a README.md with detailed usage instructions, a Bash script (build_engine.sh) to compile a malicious shared object (engine.so) from engine.c, and the engine.c source file itself. The exploit works by compiling a shared object that, when loaded by OpenSSL (e.g., via a file upload and engine load operation), executes an arbitrary shell command specified by the attacker. The attacker is expected to modify engine.c to include their desired payload command. The build script ensures the shared object is built in an environment matching the target's architecture, and the README provides guidance on using Docker for this purpose. The main attack vector is local code execution via malicious engine loading, and the main fingerprintable endpoint is the output/engine.so file intended for upload to a vulnerable server.
