OneGadget
When playing ctf pwn challenges we usually need the one-gadget RCE (remote code execution),
which leads to call execve('/bin/sh', NULL, NULL).
This gem provides such gadgets finder, no need to use objdump or IDA-pro every time like a fool
To use this tool, type one_gadget /path/to/libc in command line and enjoy the magic
Installation
Available on RubyGems.org!
$ gem install one_gadgetNote: requires ruby version >= 2.1.0, you can use ruby --version to check.
Supported Architectures
- i386
- amd64 (x86-64)
- aarch64 (ARMv8)
Implementation
OneGadget uses symbolic execution to find the constraints of gadgets to be successful.
The article introducing how I develop this tool can be found on my blog.
Usage
Command Line Interface
$ one_gadget
# Usage: one_gadget <FILE|-b BuildID> [options]
# -b, --build-id BuildID BuildID[sha1] of libc.
# -f, --[no-]force-file Force search gadgets in file instead of build id first.
# -l, --level OUTPUT_LEVEL The output level.
# OneGadget automatically selects gadgets with higher successful probability.
# Increase this level to ask OneGadget show more gadgets it found.
# Default: 0
# -n, --near FUNCTIONS/FILE Order gadgets by their distance to the given functions or to the GOT functions of the given file.
# -r, --[no-]raw Output gadgets offset only, split with one space.
# -s, --script exploit-script Run exploit script with all possible gadgets.
# The script will be run as 'exploit-script $offset'.
# --info BuildID Show version information given BuildID.
# --base BASE_ADDRESS The base address of libc.
# Default: 0
# --version Current gem version.

Gadgets Near Functions
Why
Consider this scenario when exploiting:
- Able to write on GOT (Global Offset Table)
- Base address of libc is unknown
In this scenario you can choose to write two low-byte on a GOT entry with one-gadget's two low-byte. If the function offset on GOT is close enough with the one-gadget, you will have at least 1/16 chance of success.
Usage
Reorder gadgets according to the distance of given functions.
$ one_gadget /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 --near exit,mkdir
# [OneGadget] Gadgets near exit(0x43120):
# 0x4f2c5 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)

# rsp & 0xf == 0
# rcx == NULL
#
# 0x4f322 execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x40, environ)
# constraints:
# [rsp+0x40] == NULL
#
# 0x10a38c execve("/bin/sh", rsp+0x70, environ)
# constraints:
# [rsp+0x70] == NULL
#

#

Regular expression is acceptable.

Show All Gadgets
Sometimes one_gadget finds too many gadgets to show them in one screen,
by default gadgets would be filtered automatically according to the difficulty of constraints.
Use option --level 1 to show all gadgets found instead of only those with higher probabilities.

Combine with Script
Pass your exploit script as one_gadget's arguments, it can
try all gadgets one by one, so you don't need to try every possible gadgets manually.
$ one_gadget ./spec/data/libc-2.19.so -s 'echo "offset ->"'
In Ruby Scripts
require 'one_gadget'
OneGadget.gadgets(file: '/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6')
#=> [324293, 324386, 1090444]
# or in shorter way
one_gadget('/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6', level: 1)
#=> [324293, 324386, 939679, 940120, 940127, 940131, 1090444, 1090456]
