~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Overview:



WolfVision Cynap is a wireless collaboration and presentation system.



The manufacturer describes the product as follows [1]:



"Cynap is a stand-alone all-in-one wireless collaboration and

presentation system which includes a built-in media player, web

conferencing, on-board recording and streaming , BYOD screen sharing

for all mobile devices, and annotation functionality, making it the

ideal device to form the centrepiece of new and adapted classrooms and

meeting spaces."



Due to the use of a hard-coded cryptographic key, an attacker can

generate support PINs for resetting the administrative user password in

order to gain administrative access to the device.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Vulnerability Details:



SySS GmbH found out that the WolfVision Cynap wireless collaboration

and presentation system uses a static, hard-coded cryptographic secret

for generating support PINs used for the provided 'forgot password'

functionality.



By knowing this static secret and the corresponding algorithm for

calculating support PINs, an attacker can reset the password of the

administrative user account "ADMIN" and thus gain unauthorized access to

the affected Cynap device via a network connection.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Proof of Concept (PoC):



SySS GmbH developed a software tool for generating support PINs either

in online or offline mode.



The following output of the software tools illustrates a successful

attack resulting in a reset password for the administrative user

account "ADMIN".
