NSSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager) is a service manager for Windows that allows users to easily install, configure, and manage system services. NSSM is often used as an alternative to the built-in Windows Service Manager. A vulnerability was discovered in NSSM version 2.24 that allows for privilege escalation.
# Malicious configuration file path malicious_config_file = os.path.join(config_dir, ' malicious_config.txt') nssm-2.24 privilege escalation
# Start the service nssm_command = 'nssm start service_name' os.system(nssm_command) NSSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager) is a service manager
A PoC exploit was created to demonstrate the vulnerability. The exploit creates a malicious configuration file with elevated privileges and sets the path to the configuration file in the NSSM service configuration. nssm-2.24 privilege escalation
# NSSM configuration directory config_dir = 'C:\\Path\\To\\NSSM\\config'
