Vulnerable Application

The WiFi Mouse (Mouse Server) from Necta LLC contains an auth bypass as the authentication is implemented entirely on the client side. By utilizing this vulnerability, it is possible to open a program on the server (cmd.exe in our case) and type commands resulting in an RCE.

Versions 1.8.3.4 (current as of module writing) and before are vulnerable.

Version 1.8.3.4 can be downloaded from https://wifimouse.necta.us/apk/MouseServer.exe at the time of writing.

Version 1.8.3.0 can be downloaded from https://wifimouse.necta.us/apk/MouseServer1.8.3.0.exe

Version 1.8.2.3 can be downloaded from edb or from https://wifimouse.necta.us/apk/MouseServer1.8.2.3.exe

Version 1.7.8.5 can be downloaded from https://wifimouse.necta.us/apk/MouseServerLatest.exe

Targets

Stager

This is Metasploit's cmd stager, it has two flavors which can be changed through the advanced option CMDSTAGER::FLAVOR.

  1. psh_invokewebrequest (default) this one types the command and pulls back the payload nice and fast. You should use it in almost all circumstances.

  2. certutil typing of the payload appears on the user's screen, and is thus unreliable (needs ~3.5min of solitude). If the user types anything or moves the focus to another window, exploit will fail.

Verification Steps

  1. Install the application

  2. Start msfconsole

  3. Do: use exploit/windows/misc/wifi_mouse_rce

  4. Set rhost and lhost as required.

  5. Do: run

  6. You should get a shell as the user who is running Wifi Mouse (Mouse Server).

Options

SLEEP

The length of time, in seconds, to sleep between each command. This gives the remote program time to process the command on screen.

LINEMAX

How long each line should be that is sent for processing. While the program seems to be able to take ~2048, anything more than ~1020 seems to crash the program. 1000 - 1020 should be safe. Defaults to 1020.
