Unauthenticated remote code execution on D-Link ShareCenter products ==================================================================== [ADVISORY INFORMATION] Title: Unauthenticated remote code execution on D-Link ShareCenter products Release date: 08/02/2012 Last update: 08/02/2012 Credits: Roberto Paleari, Emaze Networks S.p.A (roberto.paleari@emaze.net) [VULNERABILITY INFORMATION] Class: Authentication bypass, remote code execution [AFFECTED PRODUCTS] We confirm the presence of the security vulnerabilities on the following products/firmware versions: * DNS-320, firmware version 2.00.1217.2010 * DNS-320, firmware version 2.01.0512.2011 * DNS-320, firmware version 2.02.0901.2011 * DNS-320, firmware version 2.02.0923.2011 * DNS-325, firmware version 1.01.1217.2010 Other models and firmware versions are probably also vulnerable, but they were not checked. [VULNERABILITY DETAILS] D-Link ShareCenter devices suffer from a publicly-known authentication bypass issue that, according to an existing advisory[1], can be exploited to cause a Denial-of-Service. In this advisory we shed some light over the impact of this issue. In particular, the device implements almost no authentication checks on HTTP requests for any existing CGI script (i.e., all the CGIs under the /cgi directory). As an example, an attacker may retrieve the device model & firmware version by accessing the following resources: http://<device IP address>/cgi-bin/discovery.cgi http://<device IP address>/cgi-bin/system_mgr.cgi?cmd=get_firm_v_xml Besides information gathering, this vulnerability can be exploited to gain full control of the device. In particular, an undocumented functionality permits to execute arbitrary commands, displaying their output in the generated HTML page. As an example, to execute the "ls" command, an attacker can access the following URL: http://<device IP address>/cgi-bin/system_mgr.cgi?cmd=cgi_sms_test&command1=ls Even in this case, no authentication checks are performed. References: [1] http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/50902/info [REMEDIATION] We are not aware of an updated firmware that corrects the issue described in this advisory. [DISCLOSURE TIME-LINE] * 22/12/2011 - Initial vendor contact. * 27/12/2011 - Vendor replied. * 28/12/2011 - Emaze asks for a technical contact to discuss the details of the vulnerability.
