AMILABS CISCO IP PROTOCOL EXPLOIT TESTING RESULTS
JULY 18 2003
This is not a typical AMILABS formatted document, due to the importance
and severity of such a topic this document has forsaken all the fancy
formatting that most of AMI's customers have come to expect.
This document is organized in three simple sections:
Section I Local Exploit Tests
Section II Cumulative Exploit Tests
Section III Remote Multihop Exploit Tests
Summary at bottom of email
As you may be aware of already there is a major security exploit against
Cisco router interfaces using either all or one of the following IP
protocols with random/useless data in the payload
IP next protocol types 53 SWIPE
55 Mobil IP
77 SUN ND
103 PIM
More details about the exploit are at:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20030717-blocked.shtml
Please read the above Cisco advisory before following these document
experiment results.
This document is outlined in a sequential manner for the experiments
covered. So, please read through all the sections.
This is a bit long for the group study emails but please read through
the whole thing to gain a good understanding of the exploit.
Section I Local Exploit Tests
By using my protocol analyzer Agilent's Network Analyzer create/edit a
packet I can easily reproduce the problem and actually cause it without
the need for any coding.
The first set of tests were conducted on a local switched segment on a
single VLAN with my analyzer and one router. The router named router 4
is a Cisco 2513 running 12.2(1b) Its local Ethernet interface attacked
had an IP address of 10.1.1.44 A diagram of my testing from routers 4,
5, and 6 are at http://www.amilabs.com/labdiagrams.htm
Below is the basic packet I created.

According to the advisory and the information posted on the full
disclosure mailing list regarding the LIBNET CODE for the test of this
exploit the use of a sequence of packets/protocols(mentioned above) and
data was presumed. This is not true. I was a able to successfully
achieve the same results using a single protocol and static data
payload.
This excerpt of LIBNET code shows
int protocols[] = { 53, 55, 77, 103 };
struct libnet_stats ls;
lh = libnet_init(LIBNET_RAW4, NULL, errbuf);
that the protocols mentioned above are used to achieve the exploit state
of a remote Cisco interface uses all of them. This is not needed as I
will explain shortly. Also the use of RAW4 is the easier interface to
use in the Libnet library thus enabling even simpler single protocol
versions of this exploit to be created and the IP packet creations
function handled by the API and OS drivers.
For those not familiar with LIBNET please read Mike Schiffman's book
"Building Open Source Network Security Tools" for more information. A
WIN32 version of LIBNET is available from WEBTECA at
http://utenti.lycos.it/webteca/libnet.htm. Also the official Mike
Schiffman Libnet will support win32 environments in release 1.1.1. What
does this mean? More script kiddy versions of this exploit out there
quickly.
Okay, back to using a protocol analyzer to achieve this exploit.
On this first test I generated SWIPE packets(packet shown earlier) to
Router4's basic 10base-T Ethernet interface. The router reached a peak
of 28% utilization upon the acceptance of such packets. I sent an
unlimited amount for several minutes. Note the spoofed source IP address
I used.
As you can see below I filled up the input queue.

Results of this basic packet creation and generation exercise from a
protocol analyzer:
1). Cannot ping after this condition.. Not to or from router
attacked(router4)
2). Doing a clear interface command does not help (see output below) 3).
Doing a shut down and up does not help too (see output below)
A warm reload works(using reload command)

Once the interface has been exploited clearing the interface does not
help:

Shutting down the interface and brining it back up does not help either:

After clears and shutdowns I tried to ping the router 4 10.1.1.44
exploited interface from a neighboring router(router1) on the same
segment.
Router4#
2509#1
[Resuming connection 1 to r1 ... ]
..
Router1#
Router1#ping 10.1.1.44
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.1.1.44, timeout is 2 seconds:
2509#4
[Resuming connection 4 to r4 ... ]
Router4#
Still no luck. I had to do a warm reload of the router to get the
interface back.
Now using a spoofed source MAC and a spoofed IP source address.
The same results as above happened within seconds of packet generation.
So, only a couple hundred packets sent in several seconds and wham! The
interface is out.

What was observed in this test is as follows and is in CAPs to emphasize
the behavior.
THE PROBLELM PERSISTS AFTER TRAFFIC IS GENERATED AND CAN GROW EVEN IF
THE TRAFFIC IS APPLIED AT A LATER TIME..
WHAT THIS MEANS IS THAT IF I STOP GENERATING TRAFFIC AND THE ROUTER IS
STILL IN THE "FROZEN" STATE. I CAN GENRERATE TRAFFIC 10 MINUTES LATER
AND THE INTERFACES'S COUTNERS INCREMENT. SEE BELOW SCREEN OUTPOUT. ALSO,
LOOK AT THE SH PROC CPU OUTPUT, ESPICALLY THE NET BACKGROUNDER PROCESS.

What this means is that the interface is not fully hung for it is still
accepting the exploited packets even after the queue limit has been
reached.
I then reloaded the router.
Section II Cumulative Exploit Tests
I DISCOVERED THAT THE PROBLEM IS CUMULITIVE IN TERMS OF PACKET COUNT AND
NOT JUST A FLOODING OF INPUT. WHAT I DID WAS GENERATE ONE SWIPE PACKET
AT TIME AND WATCHED THE INPUT QUEUE INCRESE PACKET BY PACKET.
THERE IS A 1:1 RATIO OF QUEUE SPACE ALLOCATION PER ONE EXPLOITED PACKET(

So, what this tells us is that attacks can be built up or cumulative and
not felt for days, weeks or months.
Section III Remote Multihop Exploit Tests
MULTIHOP/SPOOFED EXERCISE.
In this test I sent the same SWIP packets from the original router 4
Ethernet segment used in earlier tests but this time instead of
attacking my local router I decided to attack a router 2 hops down that
was using a Multilink serial interface running BGP and EIGRP.
It did not work at first then I remembered I had to change the TTL of
the spoofed packet so it would just reach my victim router interface.
ARCHITECTURE.. for this test I used three routers in my lab. Routers 4,
5. and 6. See AMILAB diagram http://www.amilabs.com/labdiagrams.htm
The packet originates on the local Ethernet switch segment where router4
resides. The middle router is router 6 and the end router where we want
to attack is router 5. There is a dual serial multilink configuration
enabled between router 6 and 5. EIGRP AND BGP are running between these
interfaces. EIGRP is used on all the routers. So, the interface we want
to attack is the MULTILINK 1 interface on router 5 with its IP address
of 100.100.100.1. The other side of the Multilink is 100.100.100.2 on
router 6. I am sending a spoofed packet from an Ethernet segment of
10.1.1.x off the router 4 Ethernet switch segment. Then the packet goes
through router 4 then through router 6 then through router 6's Multilink
interface to the end point which is router 5's multilink interface of
100.100.100.1.

Here is my debug packet detail using an ACL thus turning the router into
a sniffer.
The packet arrived on my multilink1 serial interface from two router
hops away. The source IP address is the spoofed address of 1.1.1.41.

Router6#ping 100.100.100.1
However I cannot ping router 5's multilink interface and the routing
protocols are still screaming.

I then tried to ping the remote exploited serial multilink1 interface
from 2 hops away and it is dead.
>From Router4#ping 100.100.100.1 this is my origination point.

from the from middle router(router6) pinging the other end of the
multilink on router 5.
The EIGRP neighbor is in Query mode up but any packets going to the
100.100.100.1 address is futile, except the exploit packets, remember
section II? .

I also lose my BGP peer over the Multilink.

SUMMARY
. WHAT WE LEARND IS THAT THIS IOS ISSUE CAN BE EXPLOITED BY JUST
ONE PROTOCOL TYPE, THUS NO SPECIAL SEQUEANCE IS NEEDED OF PROTOCOLS
DEFINED IN THE IP HEADER OR RARE/EXOTIC DATA PAYLOAD IS NEEDED.
. SIMPLE EXPLOIT PACKETS CAN BE CREATED AND GENERATED FROM ANY
PLACE
. IT IS CUMULATIVE IN THAT ALL THE PACKET DO NOT HAVE TO BE SENT
AT ONCE. AN ATTACK CAN RENDER A ROUTER USELESS AFTER JUST 76 PACKETS IN
A SECOND OR 76 PACKETS OVER 75 DAYS IF QUEUES ARE NOT CLEARED.
. CHANGING QUEUING DOES NOT HELP FIFO AND FAIR DID NOT HELP
. PACKETS CAN BE SOURCED MAC AND IP ADDRESSED SPOOFED
. SAME BEHAVIOR APPEARED AGAINST A 100MB FAST ETHERNET INTERFACE
ON A 2620XM.
. SAME BEHAVIOR APPEARED AGAINST A SERIAL INTERFACE MULTILINK
. KNOCKS OUT IGP AND EGPS OBVIOUSLY.
. END RESULT THIS ATTACK CAN BE LAUNCHED FROM ANY PLACE AT ANY
TIME TO CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE. ONLY 76+ PACKETS NEED TO BE SENT WITH THE
TTL EXPIRING AT THE END ROUTER INTERFACE.
GOOD LUCK AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU..
