Plus, it lets you share your stored content across your network and over the Internet so family members, friends and employees can access it no matter where they are. --[ 01 - Command Injection Within the DNS-343 web directory is a folder named "maintenance" that contains a number of ASP scripts that are related to maintenance tasks that can be performed. The script by the name of "test_mail.asp" caught my attention, and that is what we will focus on for now. --[ 01.1 - Vulnerable code analysis The DNS-343 utilizes the goAhead web server, which contains a functionality called goForms, which basically stores CGI in memory. This is important to know as the previously mentioned "test_mail.asp" posts directly to the "/goform/Mail_Test" endpoint. Code for this particular goForm can be found within the "webs" binary. int __fastcall sub_27D24(int a1) { int v1; // r4@1 int *v2; // r10@1 char *v3; // r8@1 char *v4; // r6@1 char *v5; // r5@1 char *v6; // r7@1 int v7; // r12@1 char *v8; // r0@4 char *v10; // [sp+10h] [bp-230h]@1 char *v11; // [sp+14h] [bp-22Ch]@1 char s; // [sp+18h] [bp-228h]@4 v1 = a1; v2 = &dword_8D968; v3 = sub_4D340(a1, (int)"f_auth", &byte_7F4B4); v11 = sub_4D340(v1, (int)"f_username", &byte_7F4B4); v10 = sub_4D340(v1, (int)"f_password", &byte_7F4B4); v4 = sub_4D340(v1, (int)"f_smtpserver", &byte_7F4B4); v5 = sub_4D340(v1, (int)"f_sender", &byte_7F4B4); v6 = sub_4D340(v1, (int)"f_sendto", &byte_7F4B4); system("rm /tmp/email_*"); v7 = (unsigned __int8)*v3 - 49; if ( *v3 == 49 ) v7 = (unsigned __int8)v3[1]; if ( v7 ) { sprintf(&s, "email -h %s -p 25 -a 0 -s %s -d %s -t", v4, v5, v6); v2 = &dword_8D968; v8 = &s; } else { sprintf(&s, "email -h %s -p 25 -a 1 -u %s -w %s -s %s -d %s -t", v4, v11, v10, v5, v6); v8 = &s; } *v2 = system(v8); *v2 = sub_27C80(); return THISISAREDIRECT(v1, "web/maintenance/test_mail_result.asp"); } As can be seen in the above psuedo code, the form data passed to the goForm endpoint is never sanitized, and then used directly in a system call. This can be leveraged by an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute code as root and take complete control of the device. --[ 01.2 - Remote exploitation Exploiting this issue is trivial, and can be achieved by simply sending a post request containing a command injection string within one of the fields that are affected to the "/goform/Mail_Test" endpoint. I achieved this by sending a post request with the following data. f_smtpserver=;touch /tmp/gulftech; The above post request successfully creates the file named "gulftech" within the /tmp directory as the root user. --[ 02 - Credit James Bercegay GulfTech Research and Development --[ 03 - Proof of concept We strive to do our part to contribute to the security community.
