*WAGO IO PLC 758-870, 750-849, 750-849 vulnerabilities*

*Background*
According to WAGO’s Web site, WAGO is an international company based in
Germany. They operate production facilities in Germany, Switzerland,
Poland, China, and India. WAGO maintains offices worldwide.

According to WAGO, its products are deployed across several sectors
including manufacturing, building automation, electric generation,
transportation, and others. WAGO estimates that these products are used
worldwide.

*Vulnerability Details*

*Weak Credential Management*
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-6472

*Affected models:*
*WAGO IO 750-849 & 750-881*
Modular I/O System. WAGO-I/O-IPC web-based management
Order number 750-849
Firmware revision 01.01.27 (04)
Order number 750-849
Firmware revision 01.02.05 (03)

*WAGO IO 758-870*
Modular I/O System. WAGO-I/O-IPC web-based management

WAGO device models 750-849 and 750-881 come configured, by default, with
three (3) accounts having weak credentials.

admin - wago
user - user
guest - guest

WAGO device model 758-870 comes configured, by default, with five (5)
accounts having weak credentials.

root:wago
admin:wago
user:user
www:www
guest:guest

The application / system never initiates a forceful password change on
first use or later for that matter.

*Impact*
Attackers are able to exploit these vulnerabilities by using the default
credentials to gain unauthorized administrative access to the systems.

*No privilege separation*
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-6473

*Affected models:*
WAGO IO 750-849 & 750-881
Modular I/O System. WAGO-I/O-IPC web-based management
Order number 750-849
Firmware revision 01.01.27 (04)
Order number 750-881
Firmware revision 01.02.05 (03)

All three accounts can manage the device via HTTP(S) with full privileges.
There seems to be no privilege separation when logged in as any user - all
the functionality is available to these three accounts - admin, user, guest.

*Impact*
Attackers can control the device using any of the three default accounts &
perform any changes without any restrictions.

*Insecure ftp configuration / filesystem permissions*
CVE-ID: *XXX [MITRE, CVE please]*

WAGO IO 758-870 device also runs a FTP server. All the five (5) users
documented above can log in over FTP.

The FTP server configuration and filesystem permissions are set up
insecurely and allows unauthorized file access.

a. Login to FTP as 'guest' user
b. Should have no access ideally outside ftproot /
c. ’guest' can still access any file system location
d. Multiple files across the file system have too open / unrestricted
access permissions. 'guest' can access multiple, critical files.
e. Access control is not enforced sufficiently, consistently & correctly.

For example, ‘guest’ user is restricted and cannot download the /etc/passwd
on the first attempt. However, *the system allows download of /etc/passwd
file in the second attempt performed from a different directory with loose
access permissions.*

There may be other files accessible as well.

*PoC*
