Buffer overflow in Ubiquiti airCam RTSP service


1. *Advisory Information*

Title: Buffer overflow in Ubiquiti airCam RTSP service
Advisory ID: CORE-2013-0430
Advisory URL:
http://www.coresecurity.com/advisories/buffer-overflow-ubiquiti-aircam-rtsp-service
Date published: 2013-06-11
Date of last update: 2013-06-11
Vendors contacted: Ubiquiti
Release mode: Coordinated release


2. *Vulnerability Information*

Class: Classic buffer overflow [CWE-120]
Impact: Code execution
Remotely Exploitable: Yes
Locally Exploitable: No
CVE Name: CVE-2013-1606


3. *Vulnerability Description*

The Ubiquiti [1] airCam RTSP service 'ubnt-streamer', has a buffer
overflow when parsing the URI of a RTSP request message. This bug allows
remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via RTSP request message.


4. *Vulnerable Packages*

   . Cameras Models: airCam, airCam Mini, airCam Dome.
   . Firmware Version Verified: AirCam v1.1.5.
   . Other devices are probably affected too, but they were not checked.


5. *Non-Vulnerable Packages*

   . firmware v1.2.0 (airVision 2.x platform).
   . firmware v1.1.6 (airVision 1.x platform).

6. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds*

Patched firmware versions can be downloaded from the Ubiquiti official
website [2], [3].


7. *Credits*

These vulnerabilities were discovered and researched by Andres Blanco
from Core Exploit Writers Team. The publication of this advisory was
coordinated by Fernando Miranda from Core Advisories Team.
