Privilege escalation vulnerability scan

GTFO binariesThe script will scan for SUID binaries on the system and check them against GTFOBins for potential vulnerabilities and privilege escalation techniques.What are GTFO BinariesGtfobins has made a significant impact on the cybersecurity landscape by providing a comprehensive collection of “gtfo” binaries and associated techniques. Accoring to DotComMagazine Gtfobins are a collection of Linux/Unix-binaries. These binaries can be leveraged to escalate privileges, bypass security restrictions, and gain unauthorized access to systems.Thus empowers security professionals to test the security of their systems and identify potential vulnerabilities. It serves as a valuable resource for penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and red teaming exercises. Additionally, system administrators can leverage Gtfobins to better understand the risks associated with certain binaries and implement appropriate security measures to protect their systems. This tool will help you do just that.GTFOBins Vulnerability ScannerOverviewThe GTFOBins Vulnerability Scanner is a tool designed to identify potential vulnerabilities and privilege escalation techniques in SUID binaries on a Linux system. It leverages information from GTFOBins, a curated list of Unix binaries that can be exploited by an attacker to bypass local security restrictions. This tool will help you identify the low hanging fruits in your system which you can then place security controls over.FeaturesScans the system for SUID binaries.Checks identified SUID binaries against GTFOBins for potential vulnerabilities.Displays potential privilege escalation techniques for vulnerable binaries such as e.g. SUDO, SUID, SHELL, FILE-READ, FILE-WRITE, FILE-DOWNLOAD, REVERSE SHELL, FILE-UPLOAD, LIMITED SUID, LIBRARY LOAD.Provides information on binaries that are not present in the local system.Welcome screen with ASCII art.Dependenciescurl (Ensure it is installed on your system)latest version of pythongitpython is used for Git operationspyyaml is used for parsing YAML content.subprocess: os, threading, argparse, and sys are built-in Python librariesOptions-v, --verbose: Enable verbose mode.-o, --output : such as result.txtLicenseThis tool is licensed under the GPL-3.0 License - see the LICENSE file for details.Acknowledgments and Special ThanksGTFOBins (gtfobins.github.io) - A fantastic resource for binary exploitation techniques.Credits to this repository for providing the main source for ALL the GTFO Binaries inforamtion.ContributingContributions are welcome!

Privilege escalation happens when an attacker attempts to gain unauthorized access to high-level privileges on a system, network, or application.Key takeaways of this article:Main types of privilege escalationWhat are the risks of a privilege escalation attackPrivilege escalation techniques according to MITREAttack typesHow to keep safe from privilege escalation attacksHow Privilege Escalation WorksTo perform a privilege escalation attack, a threat actor should first infiltrate the targeted network. Hackers usually gain initial access by exploiting a vulnerability, using compromised credentials or social engineering techniques. At this point, there are two possibilities. Hackers might take over a privileged account from the beginning, or they could only gain access to a standard user account.In the second scenario, their next step would be to survey the network until they can continue the attack. To achieve their further goals, they will need to gain access to a privileged account. Privileged accounts grant users special rights, like access to critical data and infrastructure.After gaining a foothold in the compromised system, the hackers will attempt to gain administrative rights. Thus, they will eventually be able to perform a series of actions on the operating system or the server:run commandschange security configurationsinstall malwaremove laterallyFurther on, privilege escalation can lead to:business disruptioncompromising confidentiality, integrity, and access to sensitive dataunauthorized access to system resourcescomplete system takeoverPrivilege Escalation TypesThere are two types of privilege escalation: vertical and horizontal. In VPE (vertical privilege escalation), the attacker aims taking over an account that has system or root privileges. In HPE (horizontal privilege escalation) the hacker takes over an account and then tries to expand its control to other similar ones.Threat actors can achieve both types of privilege escalation by taking advantage of existing operating system vulnerabilities.Vertical Privilege EscalationVertical privilege escalation, also known as privilege elevation, starts from a point of lower privilege.

Admins into deploying malicious versions of publicly available software.Avoiding malicious imagesDocker image scanners may not catch these images if they contain malware that is not associated with a publicly disclosed vulnerability. For that reason, the best way to protect yourself from malicious images is to ensure that you only download images from trusted sources. Avoid unofficial Docker Hub registries or GitHub repositories.You should also avoid using the “latest” tag when pulling container images. Instead, specify an image version. This mitigates the risk that attackers may slip a malicious image into an otherwise legitimate container registry and, by giving it a version number that is more recent than the other images, tricking people into using it.Privilege escalation threatsEven if all of the container images that you deploy are vulnerability-free, a breach could occur due to a privilege escalation attack.In a privilege escalation attack, processes that are supposed to be able to access only the resources inside a given container “escape” the container and access resources in other containers or the host server.Preventing privilege escalationThe main vector for privilege escalation attacks is bugs in either the container runtime software, which is responsible for executing containers, or the host operating system.Thus, the primary means of defending against privilege escalation is to secure the container runtime and the host operating system. You do this mainly by ensuring that all of the software running on your host server (or servers) is up-to-date and free from known vulnerabilities.You can also reduce the risk of a privilege escalation attack by deploying a kernel-hardening framework, like AppArmor or SELinux. These frameworks impose additional access controls (based on policies that you configure and apply) to the host operating system, providing a second layer of defense against processes that escape the containers in which they are supposed to live.Finally, choosing a minimalist operating system, such as Alpine Linux, can mitigate the risk of container privilege escalation by reducing the number of libraries and services that an attacker could potentially exploit. As a best practice, your host OS should include no software other than the bare minimum required to deploy, orchestrate, monitor, and secure containers. If you want to run other workloads along your containers, do it on a different server or VM.Application vulnerabilitiesNo matter how secure you make your container images and the environment in which they run, you’ll face security issues if the application that you host using containers contains flaws inside its source code.For example, insufficient data input validation could enable attacks like SQL injection, allowing attackers to access sensitive information. Or, a buffer overflow vulnerability could enable attackers to execute arbitrary code and take over your container (and, possibly, the entire host).Managing application vulnerabilitiesBecause application vulnerabilities occur within application code rather than in any of the processes or tooling associated with containers, you’ll need to manage application vulnerabilities at the application level.Scan your application source code for vulnerabilities as part of your CI/CD pipeline using Static Application Security Testing, which can identify poor coding practices that could
