Four serious security issues on the popular appliance could be exploited by hackers with any level of access within the host network, Bitdefender researchers say.

A series of vulnerabilities on the popular asset management platform Device42 could be exploited to give attackers full root access to the system, according to Bitdefender.

By exploiting a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in the staging instance of the platform, attackers could successfully obtain full root access and gain complete control of the assets housed inside, Bitdefender researchers wrote in the report. The RCE vulnerability (CVE-2022-1399) has a base score of 9.1 out of 10 and is rated "critical," explains Bogdan Botezatu, director of threat research and reporting at Bitdefender.

"By exploiting these issues, an attacker could impersonate other users, obtain admin level access in the application (by leaking session with a LFI) or obtain full access to the appliance files and database (through remote code execution)," the report noted.

RCE vulnerabilities allow attackers to manipulate the platform to execute unauthorized code as root — the most powerful level of access on a device. Such code can compromise the application as well as the virtual environment the app is running on.

To get to the remote code execution vulnerability, an attacker that has no permissions on the platform (such as a regular employee outside of the IT and service desk teams) needs to first bypass authentication and gain access to the platform.

**Chaining Flaws in Attacks**

This can be made possible through another vulnerability described in the paper, CVE-2022-1401, that lets anyone on the network read the contents of several sensitive files in the Device42 appliance.

The file holding session keys are encrypted, but another vulnerability present in the appliance (CVE-2022-1400) helps an attacker retrieve the decryption key that is hardcoded in the app.

"The daisy-chain process would look like this: an unprivileged, unauthenticated attacker on the network would first use CVE-2022-1401 to fetch the encrypted session of an already authenticated user," Botezatu says.

This encrypted session will be decrypted with the key hardcoded in the appliance, thanks to CVE-2022-1400. At this point, the attacker becomes an authenticated user.

"Once logged in, they can use CVE-2022-1399 to fully compromise the machine and gain complete control of the files and database contents, execute malware and so on," Botezatu says. "This is how, by daisy-chaining the described vulnerabilities, a regular employee can take full control of the appliance and the secrets stored inside it."

He adds these vulnerabilities can be discovered by running a thorough security audit for applications that are about to be deployed across an organization.

"Unfortunately, this requires require significant talent and expertise to be available in house or on contract," he says. "Part of our mission to keep customers safe is to identify vulnerabilities in applications and IoT devices, and then to responsible disclose our findings to the affected vendors so they can work on fixes."

These vulnerabilities have been addressed. Bitdefender received version 18.01.00 ahead of public release and was able to validate that the four reported vulnerabilities — CVE-2022-1399, CVE-2022-1400, CVE 2022-1401, and CVE-2022-1410 — are no longer present. Organizations should immediately deploy the fixes, he says.

Earlier this month, a critical RCE bug was discovered in DrayTek routers, which exposed SMBs to zero-click attacks — if exploited, it could give hackers complete control of the device, along with access to the broader network.

**Common questions and answers**

This section answers common questions that may occur after reading this bulletin.

**1\. How do I determine if my device is updated to address these issues?**

To learn how to check a device's security patch level, see Check and update your Android version.

*   Security patch levels of 2022-08-01 or later address all issues associated with the 2022-08-01 security patch level.
*   Security patch levels of 2022-08-05 or later address all issues associated with the 2022-08-05 security patch level and all previous patch levels.

Device manufacturers that include these updates should set the patch string level to:

*   \[ro.build.version.security\_patch\]:\[2022-08-01\]
*   \[ro.build.version.security\_patch\]:\[2022-08-05\]

For some devices on Android 10 or later, the Google Play system update will have a date string that matches the 2022-08-01 security patch level. Please see this article for more details on how to install security updates.

**2\. Why does this bulletin have two security patch levels?**

This bulletin has two security patch levels so that Android partners have the flexibility to fix a subset of vulnerabilities that are similar across all Android devices more quickly. Android partners are encouraged to fix all issues in this bulletin and use the latest security patch level.

*   Devices that use the 2022-08-01 security patch level must include all issues associated with that security patch level, as well as fixes for all issues reported in previous security bulletins.
*   Devices that use the security patch level of 2022-08-05 or newer must include all applicable patches in this (and previous) security bulletins.

Partners are encouraged to bundle the fixes for all issues they are addressing in a single update.

**3\. What do the entries in the _Type_ column mean?**

Entries in the _Type_ column of the vulnerability details table reference the classification of the security vulnerability.

CVE-2022-31672: VMSA-2022-0022

An authentication-bypass issue in the component http://MYDEVICEIP/cgi-bin-sdb/ExportSettings.sh of Mega System Technologies Inc MSNSwitch MNT.2408 allows unauthenticated attackers to arbitrarily configure settings within the application, leading to remote code execution.

**CVE-2022-32429****Authentication Bypass and Remote Code Execution on MSNSwitch firmware MNT.2408****Affected Product:**

The affected product is the MSNSwitch Internet-enabled power strip running firmware version MNT.2408. It is unknown if any previous versions are affected.

**Vulnerability Type:**

Authentication Bypass, Command Execution

**Root Cause:**

The vulnerability is an authentication bypass which allows the full configuration of the unit to be downloaded. The credentials obtained here can then be used via a local subnet vulnerability to obtain a full root shell on the device.

The authentication bypass is caused by a routing misconfiguration in the embedded "goahead" web browser. A trailing forward slash is omitted when the route for the cgi-bin directory is defined. This forward slash is present when the path is defined for authentication purposes. This misconfiguration causes URLs of the form http://{TARGET}:{PORT}/cgi-binANYSTRINGHERE to access the /cgi-bin/ directory without requiring authentication.

For instance, the device settings can be accessed at the URL: http://{TARGET}:{PORT}/cgi-bin-hax/ExportSettings.sh

With credentials in hand, it is then possible to exploit a command injection flaw in the /cgi-bin/upgrade.cgi script to execute arbitrary commands on the device. This flaw is caused by insufficient sanitization of a user specified field.

**Impact:**

An attacker can remotely obtain the access credentials for the device itself as well as for other services that the device may be connected to. If configured, this can include Google accounts, accounts for various dynamic DNS providers, other email accounts and Skype/SMS account information. In addition, the attacker will have control over the device itself, including the ability to power cycle connected devices.

The command execution vulnerability is less significant, as it requires the attacker to be on the same subnet as the device. However, if an attacker is in that position, they can obtain full root shell access.

CVE-2022-32429

This Metasploit module exploits an arbitrary command injection in Webmin versions prior to 1.997. Webmin uses the OS package manager (apt, yum, etc.) to perform package updates and installation. Due to a lack of input sanitization, it is possible to inject an arbitrary command that will be concatenated to the package manager call. This exploit requires authentication and the account must have access to the Software Package Updates module.

Webmin Package Updates Command Injection

Vulnerable path is reachable just once a day, but patches still need to be implemented as a matter of priority

Vulnerable path is reachable just once a day, but patches still need to be implemented as a matter of priority

A high-impact vulnerability in small business routers from Cisco could allow “patient and suitably positioned attackers” to obtain unauthenticated remote code execution on affected devices.

The flaw was discovered by researchers at Onekey (formerly IoT Inspector), who found that improper input validation in the Cisco RV160, RV260, RV340, and RV345 series of routers could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the system.

“By sending a specially-crafted input to the web filter database update feature, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system with root privileges,” the team said in a technical blog post this week.

**Perfect timing**

Tracked as CVE-2022-20827 and with a CVSS score of 9.0, the Cisco router vulnerability relates to a flaw in the BrightCloud web filtering feature that comes bundled with the devices.

The researchers discovered the vulnerability when hunting for bugs to craft exploit chains for the Pwn2Own 2021 live hacking event.

“Sadly, the vulnerable path is only reachable once a day, so it did not match the Pwn2Own rules,” they said.

Despite the timing constraints, Onekey said businesses should still implement the fixes as soon as possible. “We know real world attackers can be patient and won’t hesitate to wait on you, so patch your routers,” they said.

**Bug ‘dependency’ confusion**

In an accompanying security advisory, Cisco released a list of vulnerable router firmware versions and relevant patch guidance.

Incidentally, the advisory states that CVE-222-20827 is “dependent” on another flaw, CVE-2022-20841.

However, despite noting similarities in the exploits, Onekey researcher Quentin Kaiser told _The Daily Swig_ that one CVE was not reliant on the other.

“I don’t see the ‘dependency’ between those two vulnerabilities,” Kaiser said. “They’re similar in that they’re both exploiting a lack of protection against man-in-the-middle attacks, but they target different components.”

We have asked Cisco for clarification on this point. This article will be updated if we hear back.

Cisco router flaw gives patient attackers full access to small business networks

August Patch Tuesday tackles 121 CVEs, 17 critical bugs and one zero-day bug exploited in the wild.

August Patch Tuesday tackles 121 CVEs, 17 critical bugs and one zero-day bug exploited in the wild.

Microsoft is urging users to patch a zero-day vulnerability dubbed Dogwalk that is actively being exploited in the wild. The bug (CVE-2022-34713) is tied to a Microsoft Windows Support Diagnostic Tool and allows a remote attacker to execute code on a vulnerable system.

The warning is part of a massive August Patch Tuesday update that included 121 flaws, 17 of which were critical and 101 carrying a Common Vulnerability Scoring System rating of Important.

“The volume of fixes released this month is markedly higher than what is normally expected in an August release. It’s almost triple the size of last year’s August release, and it’s the second largest release this year,” wrote Dustin Childs, Zero Day Initiative manager, in a Tuesday blog post.

****Dogwalk Flaw Was Over Two-Years Old****

The actively exploited Dogwalk bug was first reported to Microsoft in January 2020 by researcher Imre Rad. However, it wasn’t until a separate researchers began tracking the exploitation of a flaw dubbed Follina (CVE-2022-30190) that the Dogwalk bug was rediscovered. That renewed interest in Dogwalk appears to have motivated Microsoft to add the patch to this month’s round of fixes, according to a Tenable Patch Tuesday roundup report.

Microsoft states that CVE-2022-34713 is a “variant of” Dogwalk, but different. Microsoft scored the vulnerability as Important and warns that the exploitation of the bug can only be preformed by an adversary with physical access to a vulnerable computer. However, researchers at Zero Day Initiative outline how a remote attack might occur.

“There is an element of social engineering to this as a threat actor would need to convince a user to click a link or open a document,” Childs wrote.

Microsoft describes a possible attack as having a low complexity value, meaning it can be exploited easily and requires no advance system privileges to execute.

“This bug also allows code execution when MSDT is called using the URL protocol from a calling application, typically Microsoft Word,” Childs wrote. “It’s not clear if this vulnerability is the result of a failed patch or something new,” he added.

****17 Critical Flaws****

The most serious of the vulnerabilities patched on Tuesday include a trio of elevation of privilege vulnerabilities opening instances of Microsoft Exchange Server to attack. Microsoft has released a separate alert page for this flaw to help mitigate the flaws.

“All three vulnerabilities require authentication and user interaction to exploit — an attacker would need to entice a target to visit a specially crafted Exchange server, likely through phishing,” wrote Tenable regarding the Exchange Server bugs.

Back in the Patch Tuesday spotlight is a critical flaw (CVE-2022-35804) in Microsoft’s Server Message Block (SMB) client and server running on Windows 11 systems using Microsoft SMB 3.1.1 (SMBv3), according to the company. Microsoft categorized the bug as “Exploitation More Likely” and assigned an 8.8 severity rating to the flaw.

The flaw only affects Windows 11, which Zero Day Initiative said, “implies some new functionality introduced this vulnerability.” Researchers there said the SMB flaw could potentially be wormable between affected Windows 11 systems only when SMB server is enabled.

“Disabling SMBv3 compression is a workaround for this bug, but applying the update is the best method to remediate the vulnerability,” wrote Childs.

Rated between 8.5 to 9.8 in severity, Microsoft patched a remote code execution flaw (CVE-2022-34715) in its Windows Network File System. This is the fourth month in a row that Microsoft has deployed a critical NFS code execution patch. Interestingly, Microsoft describes the flaw as Important, while researchers warn the bug is Critical and should be a priority patch.

“To exploit this, a remote, unauthenticated attacker would need to make a specially crafted call to an affected NFS server. This would provide the threat actor with code execution at elevated privileges. Microsoft lists this as Important severity, but if you’re using NFS, I would treat it as Critical. Definitely test and deploy this fix quickly,” advises Zero Day Initiative.
