Description

This module examines the sudoers configuration for the session user and lists the commands executable via sudo.

This module also inspects each command and reports potential avenues for privileged code execution due to poor file system permissions or permitting execution of executables known to be useful for privesc, such as utilities designed for file read/write, user modification, or execution of arbitrary operating system commands.

Note, you may need to provide the password for the session user.

Verification Steps

  1. Start msfconsole

  2. Get a session

  3. use post/multi/recon/sudo_commands

  4. set SESSION [SESSION]

  5. run

  6. You should receive a list of available sudo commands

Options

SESSION

Which session to use, which can be viewed with sessions

SUDO_PATH

Path to sudo executable (default: /usr/bin/sudo)

PASSWORD

Password for the session user

Scenarios

msf5 > use post/multi/recon/sudo_commands
msf5 post(multi/recon/sudo_commands) > set session 1
session => 1
msf5 post(multi/recon/sudo_commands) > set verbose true
verbose => true
msf5 post(multi/recon/sudo_commands) > run
