A method for bypassing code execution isolation systems in Python has been published, based on an old bug that appeared in Python 2.7, identified in 2012, and still unpatched in Python 3. This bug allows specially crafted Python code to initiate calls to already freed memory (Use-After-Free) in CPython. It was initially believed that this bug posed no security threat and could only rarely, typically in artificially created scenarios, cause script crashes. <\/p>\n

A security researcher known by the pseudonym kn32 became interested in the issue and managed to prepare a working exploit that allows the execution of any system command without direct access to methods like os.system. The exploit is implemented in pure Python and works without importing external libraries or installing a handler for 'code.__new__'. It only uses the 'builtin.__id__' hook, which is typically not restricted. From a practical standpoint, the provided code can be used to bypass isolation mechanisms in various services and environments (for example, in training environments, online shells, embedded handlers, etc.) that allow code execution in Python but restrict available calls and do not allow access to methods like os.system. <\/p>\n

The provided code is analogous to calling os.system, working through exploiting a vulnerability in CPython. The exploit works with all versions of Python 3 on x86-64 architecture systems and demonstrates stable operation in Ubuntu 22.04, even with PIE, RELRO, and CET protection modes enabled. The process involves obtaining from the Python code information about the address of one of the functions in the executing CPython code. Based on this address, it calculates the base address of CPython in memory and the address of the system() function in the loaded instance of libc. Finally, it initiates a direct jump to the specified address of system, substituting the pointer of the first argument with the string '\/bin\/sh'.
