Business recommendation:
------------------------
The vendor did not reply to any of our communication attempts. The security
issues have not been fixed. Users of this product are urged to contact their
support representative and request the vulnerabilities to be fixed.

SEC Consult highly recommends to perform a thorough security review of the
product conducted by security professionals to identify and resolve potential
further security issues.


Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
1) Reflected Cross-Site-Scripting Vulnerability (CVE-2023-27572)
An attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the
victim's session, thus perform all actions, exfiltrate information, etc. In
order to exploit this vulnerability the attacker will have to trick the user
into visiting a manipulated URL.

2) Missing Authentication (CVE-2023-27572)
Logfiles can be downloaded without prior authentication, once the correct URL
is known. This allows an attacker to gain further information about the usage
of the device.


Proof of concept:
-----------------
1) Reflected Cross-Site-Scripting Vulnerability (CVE-2023-27572)
The following URL has to be visited by the victim in order to execute arbitrary
JavaScript code.

http://$IP/https_redirect.php?page=%22;alert(document.domain);var%20dummy=%22


2) Missing Authentication (CVE-2023-27572)
The following HTTP request will return the log file of the device without
checking for a valid session cookie.

-------------------
