-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Advisory ID: SYSS-2019-021 Product: Cynap Manufacturer: WolfVision Affected Version(s): 1.18g, 1.28j Tested Version(s): 1.18g, 1.28j Vulnerability Type: Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key (CWE-321) Risk Level: High Solution Status: Fixed Manufacturer Notification: 2019-05-03 Solution Date: 2019-06-19 Public Disclosure: 2019-07-04 CVE Reference: Not assigned yet Authors of Advisory: Manuel Stotz, Gerhard Klostermeier (SySS GmbH) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Overview: WolfVision Cynap is a wireless collaboration and presentation system. The manufacturer describes the product as follows [1]: "Cynap is a stand-alone all-in-one wireless collaboration and presentation system which includes a built-in media player, web conferencing, on-board recording and streaming , BYOD screen sharing for all mobile devices, and annotation functionality, making it the ideal device to form the centrepiece of new and adapted classrooms and meeting spaces." Due to the use of a hard-coded cryptographic key, an attacker can generate support PINs for resetting the administrative user password in order to gain administrative access to the device. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vulnerability Details: SySS GmbH found out that the WolfVision Cynap wireless collaboration and presentation system uses a static, hard-coded cryptographic secret for generating support PINs used for the provided 'forgot password' functionality. By knowing this static secret and the corresponding algorithm for calculating support PINs, an attacker can reset the password of the administrative user account "ADMIN" and thus gain unauthorized access to the affected Cynap device via a network connection. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Proof of Concept (PoC): SySS GmbH developed a software tool for generating support PINs either in online or offline mode. The following output of the software tools illustrates a successful attack resulting in a reset password for the administrative user account "ADMIN". $ python ./wolfvision_cynap_keygen.py --online 192.168.40.109 WolfVision vSolution Cynap Keygen by Manuel Stotz Gerhard Klostermeier [*] Launch keygen in online mode ...
