I am not a php guy.....I don't know how to do this.
I tried a script to allow ssh without password for anyone. It seems to have
written the file, however, I still cannot ssh in as root. Note: this is my
first php script; the pint statements helped me debug and see if it was
working.
<?php
echo "starting...<br>";
$filename = '/etc/pam.d/sshd';
$fh = fopen($filename, 'w+') or die("can't open file");
$contents = fread($fh, 1000);
echo "..file contents:<br> $contents<br>";
$stringData = "account required pam_unix.so\n";
$fw = fwrite($fh, $stringData);
if ($fw == false)
echo "...#1 no luck writing file<br>";
else
echo "...wrote $fw bytes: '$stringData'<br>";
$stringData = "session required pam_unix.so\n";
$fw = fwrite($fh, $stringData);
if ($fw == false)
echo "...#2 no luck writing file<br>";
else
echo "...wrote $fw bytes: '$stringData'<br>";
$stringData = "auth required pam_permit.so\n";
$fw = fwrite($fh, $stringData);
if ($fw == false)
echo "...#3 no luck writing file<br>";
else
echo "...wrote $fw bytes: '$stringData'<br>";
rewind($fh);
$contents = fread($fh, 1000);
echo "...final file contents:<br> $contents<br>";
fclose($fh);
echo "done!<br>";
?>
Output from the script:
starting...
..file contents:
...wrote 32 bytes: 'account required pam_unix.so '
...wrote 32 bytes: 'session required pam_unix.so '
...wrote 28 bytes: 'auth required pam_permit.so '
...final file contents:
account required pam_unix.so session required pam_unix.so auth required
pam_permit.so
done!
One strange behavior....when I re-run the script, I expected to see the
contents of the file displayed after 'starting...' above, but it always
comes back blank, and I still cannot login using ssh....
I did this:
1. restart the nas
2. run script
3. I get this ouput:
mark@orca:~/Desktop/buffalo_nas$ ssh
root@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Connection closed by xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
4. reset nas again
5 I get this ouput:
mark@orca:~/Desktop/buffalo_nas$ ssh
root@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Password:
Password:
Password:
Then all I get when I try to ssh in is Connection closed.
Does anyone have any php scripts to hack this box and give me root access
via ssh?
Thanks!
