TeamCity 2017.1.5 - Weak file permissions - Privilege Escalation

=====================================================

# Vendor Homepage: http://www.jetbrains.com
# Date: 17 Oct 2017
# Version : TeamCity Version: 2017.1.5 Build: 47175
# Tested on: Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (EN) and Windows 10 x64
# Author: Heliand Dema
# Contact: heliand@cyber.al
=====================================================

Teamcity installs two services called 'TCBuildAgent' and
'TeamCityService' with weak file permission running with SYSTEM privileges.
Services configured to use an executable with weak permissions are
vulnerable to privilege escalation attacks.
An unprivileged user could modify or overwrite the executable with
arbitrary code, which would be executed the next time the service is
started. Depending on the user that the service runs as, this could
result in privilege escalation.

SERVICE_NAME: TCBuildAgent
        TYPE               : 110  WIN32_OWN_PROCESS (interactive)

                                  BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(F)
                                  NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(F)
                                  BUILTIN\Users:(I)(RX)

>icacls.exe c:\TeamCity\bin\TeamCityService.exe

                                    BUILTIN\Administrators:(I)(F)
                                    NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(I)(F)
                                    BUILTIN\Users:(I)(RX)
           Modify --- >       NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(M)

Notice the line: NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(I)(M) which lists the
permissions for authenticated however unprivileged users.
The (M) stands for Modify, which grants an unprivileged user the ability
to read, write and delete files and subfolders within this folder.
 
 
====Proof-of-Concept====
 
To properly exploit this vulnerability, the local attacker must insert
an executable file called TeamCityAgentService-windows-x86-32.exe or
TeamCityService.exe and replace the original file. Next time service
starts the malicious file will get executed as SYSTEM.
