Overview:
DiCal-RED is a radio module for communication between emergency vehicles and
control rooms. It provides Ethernet, Wi-Fi and cellular network connectivity
and runs a Linux- and BusyBox-based operating system.
The manufacturer describes the product as follows (see [1]):
"The DiCal-Red radio data module reliably guides you to your destination. This
is ensured by the linking of navigation (also for the transmission of position
data) and various radio modules."
Due to the use of unmaintained third-party software components, the device is
vulnerable to numerous known security issues.
Vulnerability Details:
The device’s operating system is based on several well-known open-source
products, such as the Linux kernel, the Dropbear SSH server and the
ProFTPD FTP server.
In particular, it runs the following versions:
Product | Version | Released |
---|---|---|
Linux kernel | 3.14.35 | March 2015 |
Dropbear | 2013.56 | March 2013 |
ProFTPD | 1.3.3g | November 2011 |
There are several publicly known security issues that affect these software
versions, such as CVE-2016-5195, CVE-2016-7406 or CVE-2019-12815.
Proof of Concept (PoC):
None
Solution:
The manufacturer recommends not running the device in an untrusted network.
