Cisco Small Business SRP500 Series devices running affected versions of
firmware contain the following vulnerability:
Cisco Small Business SRP500 Series Services Ready Platforms Command Injection Vulnerability
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This vulnerability is documented in Cisco Bug ID CSCtr45124, and
has been assigned Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) ID
CVE-2011-4005.
For this vulnerability to be exploited, a remote attacker must
either entice an administrator to access a crafted link or perform a
man-in-the-middle attack, intercepting an authenticated session. The
operating system commands that are injected are run in the context of
the root user.
Vulnerability Scoring Details
=============================
Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerability in this advisory
based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS
scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS
version 2.0.
CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability
severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response.
Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then
compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of
the vulnerability in individual networks.
Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding
CVSS at:
http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html
Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the
environmental impact for individual networks at:
http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss
* CSCtr45124 ("Cisco Small Business SRP500 Series Services Ready
Platforms Command Injection Vulnerability")
CVSS Base Score - 9.3
Access Vector - Network
Access Complexity - Medium
Authentication - None
Confidentiality Impact - Complete
Integrity Impact - Complete
Availability Impact - Complete
CVSS Temporal Score - 7.7
Exploitability - Functional
Remediation Level - Official-Fix
Report Confidence - Confirmed
Impact
======
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in the execution
of arbitrary commands on the device.
Software Versions and Fixes
===========================
When considering software upgrades, also consult
http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and any subsequent advisories to determine
exposure and a complete upgrade solution.
In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the
devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current
hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported
properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, contact
the Cisco Small Business Support Center or your contracted maintenance
provider for assistance.
This vulnerability has been fixed in the following firmware
versions:
+------------------------------------------------------------+
| Affected Product | First Fixed Release |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------|
| Cisco SRP521W | 1.1.24 |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------|
| Cisco SRP526W | 1.1.24 |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------|
| Cisco SRP527W | 1.1.24 |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------|
| Cisco SRP541W | 1.2.1 |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------|
| Cisco SRP546W | 1.2.1 |

Platforms firmware can be downloaded at
http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/navigator.html?mdfid=282736194&i=rm
Workarounds
===========
The following mitigations help limit exposure to this vulnerability.
* Disable Remote Management
Caution: Do not disable remote management if administrators
manage devices via the WAN connection. This action will result in
a loss of management connectivity to the device.
Remote Management is enabled by default. Administrators can disable
this feature by choosing "Administration > Web Access Management".
Change the setting for the Remote Management field to Disabled.
Disabling remote management limits exposure because the
vulnerability can then be exploited from the inter-LAN network only.
* Limit Remote Management Access to Specific IP Addresses
If remote management is required, secure the device so that it can
be accessed by certain IP addresses only, rather than the default
setting of All IP Addresses. After choosing "Administration > Web
Access Management", an administrator can change the Allowed Remote
IP Address setting to ensure that only devices with specified IP
addresses can access the device.
Obtaining Fixed Software
========================
Cisco has released free software updates that address this
vulnerability. Prior to deploying software, customers should consult
their maintenance provider or check the software for feature set
compatibility and known issues specific to their environment.
Customers may only install and expect support for the feature
sets they have purchased. By installing, downloading, accessing
