Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In September 2018 (Bypass)

BigTree 4.2.23 on Windows, when Advanced or Simple Rewrite routing is enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a ..\ substring, as demonstrated by a launch.php?bigtree_htaccess_url=admin/images/..\ URI.

It was discovered that the Western Digital My Cloud device before 2.30.196 is affected by an authentication bypass vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to authenticate as an admin user without needing to provide a password, thereby gaining full control of the device. (Whenever an admin logs into My Cloud, a server-side session is created that is bound to the user's IP address. After the session is created, it is possible to call authenticated CGI modules by sending the cookie username=admin in the HTTP request. The invoked CGI will check if a valid session is present and bound to the user's IP address.) It was found that it is possible for an unauthenticated attacker to create a valid session without a login. The network_mgr.cgi CGI module contains a command called "cgi_get_ipv6" that starts an admin session -- tied to the IP address of the user making the request -- if the additional parameter "flag" with the value "1" is provided. Subsequent invocation of commands that would normally require admin privileges now succeed if an attacker sets the username=admin cookie.

An issue was discovered in OpenAFS before 1.6.23 and 1.8.x before 1.8.2. The backup tape controller (butc) process accepts incoming RPCs but does not require (or allow for) authentication of those RPCs. Handling those RPCs results in operations being performed with administrator credentials, including dumping/restoring volume contents and manipulating the backup database. For example, an unauthenticated attacker can replace any volume's content with arbitrary data.

An issue was discovered in CIRCONTROL CirCarLife before 4.3. There is PLC status disclosure due to lack of authentication for /html/devstat.html.

An issue was discovered in CIRCONTROL CirCarLife before 4.3. There is internal installation path disclosure due to the lack of authentication for /html/repository.

FURUNO FELCOM 250 and 500 devices use only client-side JavaScript in login.js for authentication.

LG SuperSign CMS allows authentication bypass because the CAPTCHA requirement is skipped if a captcha:pass cookie is sent, and because the PIN is limited to four digits.

A vulnerability in the local system administration component of Avaya Aura Communication Manager can allow an authenticated, privileged user on the local system to gain root privileges. Affected versions include 6.3.x and all 7.x version prior to 7.1.3.1.

A vulnerability in the one-X Portal component of Avaya IP Office allows an authenticated attacker to read and delete arbitrary files on the system. Affected versions of Avaya IP Office include 9.1 through 9.1 SP12, 10.0 through 10.0 SP7, and 10.1 through 10.1 SP2.

An issue was discovered on KONE Group Controller (KGC) devices before 4.6.5. FTP does not require authentication or authorization, aka KONE-03.

An authentication bypass flaw was found in the smart_proxy_dynflow component used by Foreman. A malicious attacker can use this flaw to remotely execute arbitrary commands on machines managed by vulnerable Foreman instances, in a highly privileged context.

The Symantec Messaging Gateway product prior to 10.6.6 may be susceptible to an authentication bypass exploit, which is a type of issue that can allow attackers to potentially circumvent security mechanisms currently in place and gain access to the system or network.

Platform sample code firmware in 4th Generation Intel Core Processor, 5th Generation Intel Core Processor, 6th Generation Intel Core Processor, 7th Generation Intel Core Processor and 8th Generation Intel Core Processor contains a logic error which may allow physical attacker to potentially bypass firmware authentication.

In Apache Karaf version prior to 3.0.9, 4.0.9, 4.1.1, when the webconsole feature is installed in Karaf, it is available at .../system/console and requires authentication to access it. One part of the console is a Gogo shell/console that gives access to the command line console of Karaf via a Web browser, and when navigated to it is available at .../system/console/gogo. Trying to go directly to that URL does require authentication. And optional bundle that some applications use is the Pax Web Extender Whiteboard, it is part of the pax-war feature and perhaps others. When it is installed, the Gogo console becomes available at another URL .../gogo/, and that URL is not secured giving access to the Karaf console to unauthenticated users. A mitigation for the issue is to manually stop/uninstall Gogo plugin bundle that is installed with the webconsole feature, although of course this removes the console from the .../system/console application, not only from the unauthenticated endpoint. One could also stop/uninstall the Pax Web Extender Whiteboard, but other components/applications may require it and so their functionality would be reduced/compromised.

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on vulnerable installations of Samsung Galaxy Apps Fixed in version 6.4.0.15. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of push messages. The issue lies in the ability to start an activity with controlled arguments. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges to resources normally protected from the application. Was ZDI-CAN-5331.

For some Iomega, Lenovo, LenovoEMC NAS devices versions 4.1.402.34662 and earlier, by setting the Iomega cookie to a known value before logging into the NAS's web application, the NAS will not provide the user a new cookie value. This allows an attacker who knows the cookie's value to compromise the user's session.

Pulse Secure Client 9.0R1 and 5.3RX before 5.3R5, when configured to authenticate VPN users during Windows Logon, can allow attackers to bypass Windows authentication and execute commands on the system with the privileges of Pulse Secure Client. The attacker must interrupt the client's network connectivity, and trigger a connection to a crafted proxy server with an invalid SSL certificate that allows certification-manager access, leading to the ability to browse local files and execute local programs.

HPE StorageWorks XP7 Automation Director (AutoDir) version 8.5.2-02 to earlier than 8.6.1-00 has a local and remote authentication bypass vulnerability that exposed the user authentication information of the storage system. This problem sometimes occurred under specific conditions when running a service template.

In Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) versions prior to 1.1.4 it was discovered that a user could scale out allocators on new hosts with an invalid roles token. An attacker with access to the previous runner ID and IP address of the coordinator-host could add a allocator to an existing ECE install to gain access to other clusters data.

IBM Datacap Fastdoc Capture 9.1.1, 9.1.3, and 9.1.4 could allow an authenticated user to bypass future authentication mechanisms once the initial login is completed. IBM X-Force ID: 148691.

IBM Rational Engineering Lifecycle Manager 5.0 through 5.02 and 6.0 through 6.0.6 could allow remote attackers to bypass authentication via a direct request or forced browsing to a page other than URL intended. IBM X-Force ID: 142561.

In Ice Qube Thermal Management Center versions prior to version 4.13, the web application does not properly authenticate users which may allow an attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

Bypassing password security vulnerability in McAfee Application and Change Control (MACC) 7.0.1 and 6.2.0 allows authenticated users to perform arbitrary command execution via a command-line utility.

Insufficient security checks exist in the recovery procedure used by the Foscam C1 Indoor HD Camera running application firmware 2.52.2.43. A HTTP request can allow for a user to perform a firmware upgrade using a crafted image. Before any firmware upgrades in this image are flashed to the device, binaries as well as arguments to shell commands contained in the image are executed with elevated privileges.

foreman before version 1.15.0 is vulnerable to an information leak through organizations and locations feature. When a user is assigned _no_ organizations/locations, they are able to view all resources instead of none (mirroring an administrator's view). The user's actions are still limited by their assigned permissions, e.g. to control viewing, editing and deletion.
