Automatic Linux privesc via exploitation of low-hanging fruit e.g. gtfobins, pwnkit, dirty pipe, +w docker.sock
Traitor
Automatically exploit low-hanging fruit to pop a root shell. Linux privilege escalation made easy!
Traitor packages up a bunch of methods to exploit local misconfigurations and vulnerabilities in order to pop a root shell:
- Nearly all of GTFOBins
- Writeable docker.sock
- CVE-2022-0847 (Dirty pipe)
- CVE-2021-4034 (pwnkit)
- CVE-2021-3560
![traitor demo](https://cdn-0.reconshell.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/traitor-demo.gif)
It’ll exploit most sudo privileges listed in GTFOBins to pop a root shell, as well as exploiting issues like a writable docker.sock
, or the recent dirty pipe (CVE-2022-0847). More routes to root will be added over time too.
Usage
Run with no arguments to find potential vulnerabilities/misconfigurations which could allow privilege escalation. Add the -p
flag if the current user password is known. The password will be requested if it’s needed to analyse sudo permissions etc.
traitor -p
Run with the -a
/--any
flag to find potential vulnerabilities, attempting to exploit each, stopping if a root shell is gained. Again, add the -p
flag if the current user password is known.
traitor -a -p
Run with the -e
/--exploit
flag to attempt to exploit a specific vulnerability and gain a root shell.
traitor -p -e docker:writable-socket
Supported Platforms
Traitor will run on all Unix-like systems, though certain exploits will only function on certain systems.
Getting Traitor
Grab a binary from the releases page, or use go:
CGO_ENABLED=0 go get -u github.com/liamg/traitor/cmd/traitor
If the machine you’re attempting privesc on cannot reach GitHub to download the binary, and you have no way to upload the binary to the machine over SCP/FTP etc., then you can try base64 encoding the binary on your machine, and echoing the base64 encoded string to | base64 -d > /tmp/traitor
on the target machine, remembering to chmod +x
it once it arrives.
