Description

Several Netis Routers including rebranded routers from GLCtec and Stonet suffer from a command injection vulnerability at the change admin password page of the router web interface (see CVE-2024-48456 for more details). The vulnerability stems from improper handling of the 'password' and 'new password' parameter within the router's web interface. Attackers can inject a command in the 'password' or 'new password' parameter, encoded in base64, to exploit the command injection vulnerability. When exploited, this can lead to command execution, potentially allowing the attacker to take full control of the router. An attacker needs to be authenticated to initiate this RCE, however CVE-2024-48457 allows an unauthenticated attacker to reset the Wifi and router password, hence gaining full root access to the router to execute the RCE. Last but not least, CVE-2024-48455 allows for unauthenticated information disclosure revealing sensitive configuration information of the router which can be used by the attacker to determine if the router is running specific vulnerable firmware. The following router firmware versions are vulnerable: * netis_MW5360_V1.0.1.3031_fw.bin * Netis_MW5360-1.0.1.3442.bin * Netis_MW5360_RUSSIA_844.bin * netis_NC21_V3.0.0.3800.bin (https://www.netisru.com/support/downinfo.html?id=40) * netis_NC63_V3.0.0.3327.bin (https://www.netis-systems.com/support/downinfo.html?id=35) * netis_NC63_v4_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.3889.bin (https://www.netis-systems.com/support/downinfo.html?id=35) * Netis_NC63-V3.0.0.3833.bin (https://www.netisru.com/support/downinfo.html?id=35) * netis_app_BeeWiFi_NC63_v4_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.3503.bin * netis_NC65_V3.0.0.3749.bin * Netis_NC65_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.3508.bin (https://www.netis-systems.com/support/downinfo.html?id=34) * Netis_NC65v2-V3.0.0.3800.bin (https://www.netisru.com/support/downinfo.html?id=34) * netis_NX10_V2.0.1.3582_fw.bin * netis_NX10_V2.0.1.3643.bin * Netis_NX10_v1_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.4142.bin (https://www.netis-systems.com/support/downinfo.html?id=33) * netis_NX10-V3.0.1.4205.bin (https://www.netisru.com/support/downinfo.html?id=33) * netis_app_BeeWiFi_NC21_v4_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.3329.bin * netis_app_BeeWiFi_NC21_v4_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.3500.bin * Netis_NC21_v2_Bangladesh-V3.0.0.3854.bin (https://www.netis-systems.com/support/downinfo.html?id=40) * GLC_ALPHA_AC3-V3.0.2.115.bin (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1P69yUfzeZeR6oABmIdcJ6fG57-Xjrzx6) * potentially others...

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use exploit/linux/http/netis_unauth_rce_cve_2024_48456_and_48457
msf exploit(netis_unauth_rce_cve_2024_48456_and_48457) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(netis_unauth_rce_cve_2024_48456_and_48457) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(netis_unauth_rce_cve_2024_48456_and_48457) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(netis_unauth_rce_cve_2024_48456_and_48457) > exploit

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
