Authentication & Session Management

Login Flow

Entry Point:

  1. User accesses /index.html
  2. Redirects to /cgi-bin/indexmain.cgi
  3. If not authenticated, redirects to /cgi-bin/login_advance.cgi
  4. Login page displays login form

Login Handler: login_advance.cgi

Login Process:

User Input (username/password)
    ↓
POST to login_advance.cgi
    ↓
Backend validation (libwebutil.so)
    ↓
Check username/password against:
    - /etc/config/rpcd (root user)
    - Virtual user database
    - PAM authentication
    ↓
If valid:
    - Generate SessionKey
    - Set HTTP cookie (session=SessionKey)
    - Store session in /tmp/session_*
    - Redirect to indexmain.cgi
    ↓
If invalid:
    - Return to login page with error

Session Management

Session Cookie:

  • Name: session
  • Value: SessionKey (random token)
  • Path: /
  • Secure: HTTPS only (if configured)

Session Functions (libwebutil.so):

Session Creation:

  • cgiValidateAddSessionKey - Add new session
  • cgiHeaderCookieSetString - Set cookie header
  • cgiGetCurrSessionKey - Get current session key

Session Validation:

  • cgiSessionCheck - Validate session on each request
  • cgiValidateLocalSessionKey - Validate local session
  • CookieGet - Get cookie value
  • getSessionFilePathFromCookie - Resolve session file

Session Cleanup:

  • cgiSessionClean - Clean expired sessions

Session Storage:

  • Session files likely in /tmp/session_* or /var/run/
  • Contains: SessionKey, CurrSessionTime, SessionIP

Session Timeout:

  • Configured in config.json: "SessionMaxTime": 600 (10 minutes)
  • Warning before timeout: "SessionWarning": false (disabled)

Session Security:

  • IP address validation (SessionIP)
  • Timestamp validation (CurrSessionTime)
  • SessionKey randomness check
  • Automatic lockout: SessionLockedState, SessionLockedTime

Authentication Bypass Checks

Paths Checked:

  • /cgi-bin/login_advance.cgi - Login required
  • /cgi-bin/logout_advance.cgi - Always accessible
  • Static resources (css, js, images) - Typically no auth required
  • Error pages - No auth required

Potential Bypasses (to test):

  • Direct CGI access without session cookie
  • Session fixation attacks
  • CSRF token absence
  • Cookie tampering

Default Credentials

From rpcd config (/etc/config/rpcd):

config login
    option username 'root'
    option password '$p$root'
    list read '*'
    list write '*'

Username: root Password Hash: $p$root - This appears to be a placeholder/template

Actual Password:

  • Not hardcoded in firmware
  • Set during provisioning or first login
  • May default to device-specific value (serial number, etc.)

Permissions:

  • Full read access: '*'
  • Full write access: '*'

  • Format suggests weak or placeholder hash
  • Risk: Brute-force attack, rainbow tables

❌ Multiple jQuery Versions

  • jQuery 1.3.2 (released 2009) - Known XSS vulnerabilities
  • jQuery 1.6.3 (2011) - CVE-2011-4969 (XSS)
  • jQuery 3.6.0/3.6.3 - Relatively current
  • Risk: XSS exploitation via old jQuery

❌ No CSRF Protection Observed

  • No CSRF token generation found
  • No CSRF validation in CGI handlers
  • Risk: Cross-site request forgery attacks

HIGH

⚠️ Inconsistent Validation

  • Some CGI binaries may lack input validation
  • Frontend validation != backend validation
  • Need to audit: Each CGI for proper input sanitization

⚠️ Session Storage Location Unknown

  • Session files location not confirmed
  • Might be predictable paths in /tmp/
  • Risk: Session hijacking if files world-readable

⚠️ HTTP Credential Transmission

  • If HTTPS not enforced, credentials sent in clear
  • No evidence of forced HTTPS redirect
  • Risk: Man-in-the-middle attacks

⚠️ Embedded HTML in Binaries

  • HTML templates embedded in CGI binaries
  • Difficult to audit for XSS
  • Risk: Persistent XSS if templates have vulnerabilities

MEDIUM

⚠️ Multiple HTTP Server Instances

  • 4 mini_httpd instances possible
  • Different configurations may have different security
  • Risk: Inconsistent security posture

⚠️ Old SSL/TLS Libraries Possible

  • Firmware from 2024 but may use old libraries
  • Need to check: OpenSSL/LibreSSL version in libcrypto

⚠️ No Rate Limiting Observed

  • Login endpoint may lack rate limiting
  • Risk: Brute-force attacks

⚠️ Verbose Error Messages

  • Debug strings in binaries
  • May leak sensitive information
  • Risk: Information disclosure

LOW

⚠️ Debug Features Present

  • isDebugVersionFW flag found
  • Debug-specific CGI paths
  • Risk: Debug endpoints may bypass security

⚠️ Telnet Support

  • RemMagTELNET.cgi suggests Telnet support
  • Risk: Unencrypted remote access

Frontend-Backend Validation Analysis

Validation Patterns

Frontend Validation (JavaScript)

Found in jQuery Validate plugin:

  • Form field validation
  • Input format checking
  • Client-side sanitization

Limitations:

  • ✗ Can be bypassed via browser DevTools
  • ✗ Can be bypassed by direct HTTP requests
  • ✗ Not security-relevant (convenience only)

Backend Validation (CGI/C)

Functions Found:

  • check_value() - Generic value checking
  • cgiHtmlEscape() - HTML entity encoding
  • escape_html() - HTML escaping
  • escapeBackslash4JS() - JavaScript escaping

OID Validation:

  • All CGI access data via OID (InternetGatewayDevice.*)
  • OID layer may provide validation
  • Functions: cccRdmGetObjectByOID(), cccRdmGetObjListByOID()

Validation Gap Analysis

Methodology: To identify frontend/backend validation gaps, the following tests should be performed:

  1. Bypass Frontend Validation:

    • Capture legitimate request in browser
    • Modify POST data to invalid values
    • Submit directly via curl/Burp
    • Check if backend accepts invalid data

  2. Parameter Tampering:

    • Add extra parameters
    • Remove required parameters
    • Change parameter types (string→number, etc.)

  3. Boundary Testing:

    • Oversized inputs (buffer overflow)
    • Special characters injection
    • Null bytes, Unicode edge cases

Suspected Vulnerable Endpoints

Based on naming and common patterns:

High Priority for Testing:

  1. File Upload Handlers:

    • firewareUpgrade.cgi (firmware upload)
    • backupRestore.cgi (config upload)
    • ⚠️ Risk: Path traversal, malicious file upload

  2. Command Injection Candidates:

    • ping.cgi - May execute system ping command
    • DiagGeneral.cgi - May execute diagnostic commands
    • ⚠️ Risk: Command injection via unsanitized input

  3. SQL Injection Candidates (if DB used):

    • Any CGI with _list suffix (queries)
    • Filter/search functions
    • ⚠️ Risk: SQL injection (if using SQL database)

  4. Path Traversal:

    • fileSharing_browse.cgi - File browsing
    • viewlog.cgi - Log file access
    • ⚠️ Risk: Directory traversal to access sensitive files

  5. XSS Candidates:

    • Any CGI that echoes user input
    • menuJson.cgi - Dynamic content generation
    • naviView_partialLoad.cgi - Partial page loads
    • ⚠️ Risk: Reflected/Stored XSS

Recommended Testing

For Each CGI:

  1. Intercept legitimate request
  2. Test with:
    • SQL injection payloads: ' OR '1'='1, '; DROP TABLE--
    • Command injection: ; ls, | cat /etc/passwd, `whoami`
    • Path traversal: ../../../etc/passwd, ..\\..\\windows\\system32
    • XSS payloads: <script>alert(1)</script>, <img src=x onerror=alert(1)>
    • Buffer overflow: Very long strings (10KB+)
    • Format strings: %s%s%s%n
    • Null bytes: file.txt\0.jpg
  3. Check response for:
    • Execution indicators (error messages, timing)
    • Reflected input (XSS)
    • File disclosure
    • Server errors (500 = possible vulnerability)

API Endpoints

JSON-Based API

Menu Structure API:

  • Endpoint: /cgi-bin/menuJson.cgi
  • Purpose: Dynamic menu generation based on user permissions and features
  • Format: JSON response

Tab Configuration API:

  • Endpoints: Each page has corresponding /html/pages/*/tab.json
  • Purpose: Define page structure and CGI mappings
  • Format: Static JSON files

Example Tab JSON Structure:

{
    "tabTitle": "MLG_Menu_SubTitle_RemoteMGMT",
    "pageIndex": "maintenance-remotemgmt",
    "MLG_Tab_subTitle_General": {
        "url": "../../../cgi-bin/RemMagGeneral.cgi"
    },
    "MLG_Tab_subTitle_WWW": {
        "url": "../../../cgi-bin/RemMagWWW.cgi"
    }
}

Management APIs

MHS API Path:

  • /mhs/APIS/ - Management Host System API
  • /mhs/jsps/ - JSP-style management pages

Purpose: Likely for ISP/OLT remote management

Zero-Touch Provisioning:

  • File: /var/zerotouch.json
  • Purpose: Auto-configuration data from network
  • Accessible via: /zerotouch.json symlink in web root

TR-069/TR-369 Integration

TR-069 CGI:

  • tr69cfg.cgi - TR-069 configuration via web UI
  • tr69cfg.html - TR-069 status page

TR-369/USP CGI:

  • tr369.cgi - USP configuration
  • agentMTP.cgi - Message Transfer Protocol config
  • controller.cgi - USP controller management
  • stompConn.cgi - STOMP protocol connections
  • mqttClient.cgi - MQTT connections

Data Model:

  • Based on InternetGatewayDevice OID structure
  • USP Device.LocalAgent.* objects
  • Backend handles OID queries via libbemodules.so

Data Flow

Request Flow

User Browser
    ↓
HTTPS Request to mini_httpd (port 443/8080)
    ↓
mini_httpd validates session cookie
    ↓
If session valid:
    - Parse request (GET/POST)
    - Extract CGI path
    - Set environment variables
    - Execute CGI binary (/usr/shared/web/cgi-bin/X.cgi)
        ↓
    CGI Binary Execution:
        - Link libwebutil.so (session, HTML escaping)
        - Link libbemodules.so (backend OID access)
        - Parse POST/GET parameters
        - Call cgiSessionCheck()
        - Process business logic
        - Call OID functions (cccRdmGetObjectByOID, etc.)
        - Generate HTML output (embedded in binary)
        - Call escape_html() on user input
        - Output to stdout
        ↓
    mini_httpd receives stdout
    ↓
    Add HTTP headers (Content-Type, Set-Cookie, etc.)
    ↓
    Send response to browser

Data Storage Flow

Web UI Change
    ↓
CGI validates input
    ↓
Update OID via libbemodules.so
    ↓
OID change triggers backend action (be_*)
    ↓
Backend module (libbemodules.so):
    - Validate change
    - Update RDM (Runtime Data Model)
    - Write to /var/config.cfg
    - Trigger system command (e.g., restart service)
    - Send ubus notification
    ↓
Service reconfigures (dhcp, firewall, wifi, etc.)
    ↓
Configuration persisted to flash (/var/config.cfg)

OID Architecture

Object Identifier (OID) Structure:

  • Format: InternetGatewayDevice.Category.SubCategory.{i}.Parameter
  • Example: InternetGatewayDevice.LANDevice.1.WLANConfiguration.1.SSID

OID Access Functions:

  • cccRdmGetObjectByOID(oid) - Get single object
  • cccRdmGetObjListByOID(oid) - Get object list
  • cccRdmSetObjectByOID(oid, value) - Set object value

OID Modules (in libbemodules.so):

  • Each OID has:
    • OID_*_Boot - Initialization at boot
    • OID_*_ConfigLoaderFunc - Configuration loader
    • OID_*_ConfigLoaderFunc_Boot - Boot-time config load

Example OIDs Found:

  • OID_InternetGatewayDevice_X_5067F0_Ext_LoginPrivilegeMgmt_i_ConfigLoaderFunc
  • OID_InternetGatewayDevice_ManagementServer_X_5067F0_CAContent_ConfigLoaderFunc_Boot
  • OID_InternetGatewayDevice_Mos_MosUserConfig_ConfigLoaderFunc
