0x00 前言
OpenSSH是SSH（Secure SHell）协议的免费开源实现。SSH协议族可以用来进行远程控制，或在计算机之间传送文件。而实现此功能的传统方式，如telnet(终端仿真协议)、rcp ftp、rlogin、rsh都是极为不安全的，并且会使用明文传送密码。
OpenSSH提供了服务端后台程序和客户端工具，用来加密远程控制和文件传输过程中的数据，并由此来代替原来的类似服务。
OpenSSH广泛用于基于Unix的系统，通常用于远程登录和远程文件传输，以及其他网络服务。
0x01 漏洞描述
默认配置下的OpenSSH Server (sshd)中存在信号处理程序竞争条件漏洞，如果客户端未在LoginGraceTime 秒内（默认情况下为 120 秒，旧版 OpenSSH 中为 600 秒）进行身份验证，则 sshd 的 SIGALRM 处理程序将被异步调用，但该信号处理程序会调用各种非async-signal-safe的函数（例如syslog()），威胁者可利用该漏洞在基于 glibc 的 Linux 系统上以root 身份实现未经身份验证的远程代码执行。

* -------------------------------------------------------------------------
* SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_9.2p1 Exploit
* -------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* Exploit Title : SSH Exploit for CVE-2024-6387 (regreSSHion)
* Author : 7etsuo
* Date : 2024-07-01
*
* Description:
* Targets a signal handler race condition in OpenSSH's
* server (sshd) on glibc-based Linux systems. It exploits a vulnerability
* where the SIGALRM handler calls async-signal-unsafe functions, leading
* to rce as root.
*
* Notes:
* 1. Shellcode : Replace placeholder with actual payload.
* 2. GLIBC_BASES : Needs adjustment for specific target systems.
* 3. Timing parameters: Fine-tune based on target system responsiveness.
* 4. Heap layout : Requires tweaking for different OpenSSH versions.
* 5. File structure offsets: Verify for the specific glibc version.
