RE: limewire cookie (among others) disclosure vuln

["leon" <leon () inyc com>]

Try searching for keen and watch all kinds of cookies come up.  By
default it does not share the whole harddrive but it is a simple click
of a mouse that gives the whole thing up.   I was thinking more along
the lines of people dumping the same file.  Browse host rarely works.

Hope that helps,

Leon

Ps:  I am saying most people tend to mis configure (ie share the whole
harddrive) this is NOT the default behavior.  So no there is no
directory traversal vuln.

I fully agree that if someone was sharing their entire hard drive this
would
be a really bad thing in terms of ability to compromise the machine. 

I just installed limewire and it defaulted my shared directory to
\limewire1.7\shared\

Do you have a way of bypassing this? Some sort of directory traversal? 

I tried searching for things like 'rundll' and came up with lots! If the
shared directory is default, are people manually changing this to C:\ ?!


Also, not getting much luck using the 'browse host' function, it doesn't
seem to return anything.

Telneting directly to the host on TCP 6347 yielded nothing either.

Hi everyone,

Aleph One suggested I post this here to get a more polished version for
an advisory.  Here is what I have found and I am sure most of the people
here can test this and develop it even further.  Limewire is a gnutella
file sharing client.  Due to common misconfigurations by the user,
people are sharing their whole harddrives.  This means you can do
everything from downloading someone's quicken data file (quicken is a
money management program) to downloading cookies off peoples hard
drives.  Who cares about the cookies you say?  Well I have found cookies
from certain sites that contains people user name & password stored in
clear text.  I am sure with enough testing you could figure out a way to
dump the sam file off an NT box or etc etc.


Anyone who wants to run with this great I would just appreciate if you
do further the research you let me know what you find.

Cheers Vuln-Dev,

Leon
