Exploitation Summary

EIP tracks 1 public exploit for CVE-2019-14326. PoCs published by seqred-s-a.

AI-analyzed exploit summary The repository contains a functional exploit for CVE-2019-14326, which leverages improper access control in Andy Android emulator (up to version 46.11.113) to escalate privileges to root via open telnet/SSH ports (22/23) without authentication. The exploit script `exploit.sh` sends a command to the telnet service on localhost, demonstrating arbitrary command execution as root.

Description

An issue was discovered in AndyOS Andy versions up to 46.11.113. By default, it starts telnet and ssh (ports 22 and 23) with root privileges in the emulated Android system. This can be exploited by remote attackers to gain full access to the device, or by malicious apps installed inside the emulator to perform privilege escalation from a normal user to root (unlike with standard methods of getting root privileges on Android - e.g., the SuperSu program - the user is not asked for consent). There is no authentication performed - access to a root shell is given upon a successful connection. NOTE: although this was originally published with a slightly different CVE ID number, the correct ID for this Andy vulnerability has always been CVE-2019-14326.
