# Exploit Title: Druva inSync Windows Client 6.6.3 - Local Privilege Escalation
# Date: 2020-05-21
# Exploit Author: Matteo Malvica
# Credits: Chris Lyne for previous version's exploit
# Vendor Homepage: druva.com
# Software Link: https://downloads.druva.com/downloads/inSync/Windows/6.6.3/inSync6.6.3r102156.msi
# Version: 6.6.3
# Tested on: Windows 10 1909-18363.778
# CVE: CVE-2020-5752
# Command injection in inSyncCPHwnet64 RPC service
# Runs as nt authority\system. so we have a local privilege escalation
# The path validation has been only implemented through a 'strncmp' function which can be bypassed by
# appending a directory traversal escape sequence at the end of the valid path.
# Writeup: https://www.matteomalvica.com/blog/2020/05/21/lpe-path-traversal/
# Example usage:
#python insync.py "windows\system32\cmd.exe /C net user Leon /add"
#python insync.py "windows\system32\cmd.exe /C net localgroup Administrators Leon /add"
