Tag: File Disclosure

An information exposure is the unintentional disclosure of information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

The information either
* is regarded as sensitive within the product’s own functionality, such as a private message; or
* provides information about the product or its environment that could be useful in an attack but is normally not available to the attacker, such as the installation path of a product that is remotely accessible.

Many information exposures are resultant (e.g. PHP script error revealing the full path of the program), but they can also be primary (e.g. timing discrepancies in cryptography). There are many different types of problems that involve information exposures. Their severity can range widely depending on the type of information that is revealed.

Vulnerability Summary
The following advisory describes an arbitrary file content disclosure vulnerability found in GoAhead web server.

The GoAhead web server is present on multiple embedded devices, from IP Cameras to Printers and other embedded devices.

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to disclose the content of the file being accessed. As most embedded devices do not run a SQL (or SQL-like) daemon, the credentials for authentication are stored inside the file being accessed. Through this disclosure attack, an attacker can view the credentials required to access the device.

Credit
An independent security researcher Istvan Toth has reported this vulnerability to Beyond Security’s SecuriTeam Secure Disclosure program.

Vendor response
Update #2: The vulnerability of the “/” less access causing file disclosure dates back to 2004, http://aluigi.altervista.org/adv/goahead-adv2.txt, I cannot find any indication when GoAhead fixed it – in any case it is still present in 2017 in devices that use the GoAhead server.

Update: The vendor (GoAhead) claims the vulnerability is not in his product, but rather in the camera vendor’s code.

We at Beyond Security, are unsure about this, but as none of the camera vendors responded, we are left in the dark at the root cause for the vulnerability.

Since this vulnerability affects practically multiple devices that have the GoAhead web server (these devices appear to implement old versions of GoAhead), there is no one company you can report these vulnerabilities to or get them addressed – further the majority of the products that are vulnerable are OEM products with no real “vendor” behind them.

We urge users who have an embedded device and have GoAhead running on them, you can know this by seeing the following banner returned when you connect to the device:

To remove the device from the network, or at the very least not allow access to the web interface to anyone beside a very strict IP address range.
