Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Privilege escalation
EUVDB-ID: #VU15459
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 9.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:U/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-18471
CWE-ID:
CWE-77 - Command injection
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
The weakness exists due to most of the API endpoints and the web interface were accessible without authentication while one of the endpoints in the REST API interface is located at /api/2.0/rest/aggregator/xml which loads xml data from POST data. A remote attacker cause the xml parser to make a request to the server at 192.168.56.1 for the file XXE_CHECK, get usernames and passwords,
cause the daemon to skip over junk data until it finds the string as shown in the IDA snippet below and inject arbitrary commands and execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
Cybersecurity Help is currently unaware of any solutions addressing the vulnerability.
