TITLE

Cisco IOS of SCP Arbitrary file browsing or overwriting vulnerability in the server

DESCRIPTION

The SCP server in Cisco IOS 12.2 through 12.4, when Role-Based CLI Access is enabled, does not enforce the CLI view configuration for file transfers, which allows remote authenticated users with an attached CLI view to (1) read or (2) overwrite arbitrary files via an SCP command. Cisco IOS is prone to a remote privilege-escalation vulnerability. This issue is tracked by Cisco Bug ID CSCsv38166. Attackers may exploit this issue to obtain sensitive information or to create denial-of-service conditions. Successful exploits may also lead to further attacks. This configuration file may include passwords or other sensitive information. The Cisco IOS SCP server is an optional service that is disabled by default. Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds available for this vulnerability apart from disabling either the SCP server or the CLI view feature if these services are not required by administrators. This advisory is posted at the following link: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-scp.shtml Note: The March 25, 2009, Cisco IOS Security Advisory bundled publication includes eight Security Advisories. Each advisory lists the releases that correct the vulnerability or vulnerabilities in the advisory. The following table lists releases that correct all Cisco IOS Software vulnerabilities that have been published in Cisco Security Advisories on March 25, 2009, or earlier. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-bundle.shtml Individual publication links are listed below: * Cisco IOS cTCP Denial of Service Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-ctcp.shtml * Cisco IOS Software Multiple Features IP Sockets Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-ip.shtml * Cisco IOS Software Mobile IP and Mobile IPv6 Vulnerabilities http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-mobileip.shtml * Cisco IOS Software Secure Copy Privilege Escalation Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-scp.shtml * Cisco IOS Software Session Initiation Protocol Denial of Service Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-sip.shtml * Cisco IOS Software Multiple Features Crafted TCP Sequence Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-tcp.shtml * Cisco IOS Software Multiple Features Crafted UDP Packet Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-udp.shtml * Cisco IOS Software WebVPN and SSLVPN Vulnerabilities http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-webvpn.shtml Affected Products ================= Vulnerable Products +------------------ Cisco devices running an affected Cisco IOS software release, configured to offer SCP server functionality, and configured to use role-based ACL access are affected by this issue. The username command defines a local user and attaches, via the view keyword, the previously defined view to the user. And finally, the ip scp server enable command enables the Cisco IOS SCP server. The absence of the username command does not guarantee that the device's configuration is not affected by this vulnerability because the name of a CLI view can be supplied by means of an Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) server by using the cli-view-name attribute. Note: The CLI view attached to a user can be supplied by a AAA server. The SCP server functionality is only available on encryption-capable images. Encryption-capable images are those that contain either a "k8" or "k9" in the image name, for example, "C7200-ADVSECURITYK9-M". Devices that do not run encryption-capable images are not vulnerable. To determine the Cisco IOS Software release that is running on a Cisco product, administrators can log in to the device and issue the show version command to display the system banner. The system banner confirms that the device is running Cisco IOS Software by displaying text similar to "Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software" or "Cisco IOS Software." The image name displays in parentheses, followed by "Version" and the Cisco IOS Software release name. Other Cisco devices do not have the show version command or may provide different output. The following example identifies a Cisco product that is running Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(26) with an installed image name of C2500-IS-L: Router#show version Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) 2500 Software (C2500-IS-L), Version 12.3(26), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2) Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport Copyright (c) 1986-2008 by cisco Systems, Inc.

No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by this vulnerability. Details ======= SCP is a protocol similar to the Remote Copy (RCP) protocol, which allows the transfer of files between systems. The main difference between SCP and RCP is that in SCP, all aspects of the file transfer session, including authentication, occur in encrypted form, which makes SCP a more secure alternative than RCP. SCP relies on the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, which uses TCP port 22 by default. The Role-Based CLI Access feature allows the network administrator to define "views". Views are sets of operational commands and configuration capabilities that provide selective or partial access to Cisco IOS software EXEC and configuration (Config) mode commands. This vulnerability could allow authenticated users to retrieve or write to any file on the device's file system, including the device's saved configuration and Cisco IOS image files. This configuration file may include passwords or other sensitive information. Note that a view can be attached to a user when defining the user in the local database (via the username <user name> view ... command), or by passing the attribute cli-view-name from an AAA server. This vulnerability does not allow for authentication bypass; login credentials are verified and access is only granted if a valid username and password is provided. This vulnerability may cause authorization to be bypassed. Vulnerability Scoring Details ============================== Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS version 2.0. CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding CVSS at http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the environmental impact for individual networks at http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss CSCsv38166 - SCP + views (role-based CLI) allows privilege escalation CVSS Base Score - 9.0 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Low Authentication - Single Confidentiality Impact - Complete Integrity Impact - Complete Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 7.4 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed Impact ====== Successful exploitation of the vulnerability described in this advisory may allow valid but unauthorized users to retrieve or write to any file on the device's file system, including the device's saved configuration and Cisco IOS image files. This configuration file may include passwords or other sensitive information. Software Versions and Fixes =========================== When considering software upgrades, also consult http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and any subsequent advisories to determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution. In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or your contracted maintenance provider for assistance. If a given release train is vulnerable, then the earliest possible releases that contain the fix (along with the anticipated date of availability for each, if applicable) are listed in the "First Fixed Release" column of the table. The "Recommended Release" column indicates the releases which have fixes for all the published vulnerabilities at the time of this Advisory. A device running a release in the given train that is earlier than the release in a specific column (less than the First Fixed Release) is known to be vulnerable. Cisco recommends upgrading to a release equal to or later than the release in the "Recommended Releases" column of the table. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |

=========== If the Cisco IOS SCP server functionality is not needed then the vulnerability described in this document can be mitigated by disabling the SCP server or the CLI view feature. The SCP server can be disabled by executing the following command in global configuration mode: no ip scp server enable If the SCP server cannot be disabled due to operational concerns, then no workarounds exist. The risk posed by this vulnerability can be mitigated by following the best practices detailed in "Cisco Guide to Harden Cisco IOS Devices" at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_tech_note09186a0080120f48.shtml Please refer to the Obtaining Fixed Software section of this advisory for appropriate solutions to resolve this vulnerability. Due to the nature of this vulnerability, networking best practices like access control lists (ACLs) and Control Plane Policing (CoPP) that restrict access to a device to certain IP addresses or subnetworks may not be effective. If access is already granted to a specific IP address or subnetwork, a user with low privileges will be able to establish an SCP session with the device, which would allow the user to exploit this vulnerability. Obtaining Fixed Software ======================== Cisco has released free software updates that address these vulnerabilities. Prior to deploying software, customers should consult their maintenance provider or check the software for feature set compatibility and known issues specific to their environment. Customers may only install and expect support for the feature sets they have purchased. By installing, downloading, accessing or otherwise using such software upgrades, customers agree to be bound by the terms of Cisco's software license terms found at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/general/warranty/English/EU1KEN_.html, or as otherwise set forth at Cisco.com Downloads at http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-usingswc.shtml Do not contact psirt@cisco.com or security-alert@cisco.com for software upgrades. Customers with Service Contracts +------------------------------- Customers with contracts should obtain upgraded software through their regular update channels. For most customers, this means that upgrades should be obtained through the Software Center on Cisco's worldwide website at http://www.cisco.com Customers using Third Party Support Organizations +------------------------------------------------ Customers whose Cisco products are provided or maintained through prior or existing agreements with third-party support organizations, such as Cisco Partners, authorized resellers, or service providers should contact that support organization for guidance and assistance with the appropriate course of action in regards to this advisory. The effectiveness of any workaround or fix is dependent on specific customer situations, such as product mix, network topology, traffic behavior, and organizational mission. Due to the variety of affected products and releases, customers should consult with their service provider or support organization to ensure any applied workaround or fix is the most appropriate for use in the intended network before it is deployed. Customers without Service Contracts +---------------------------------- Customers who purchase direct from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco service contract, and customers who purchase through third-party vendors but are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their point of sale should acquire upgrades by contacting the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC). TAC contacts are as follows. * +1 800 553 2447 (toll free from within North America) * +1 408 526 7209 (toll call from anywhere in the world) * e-mail: tac@cisco.com Customers should have their product serial number available and be prepared to give the URL of this notice as evidence of entitlement to a free upgrade. Free upgrades for non-contract customers must be requested through the TAC. Refer to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/support/tsd_cisco_worldwide_contacts.html for additional TAC contact information, including localized telephone numbers, and instructions and e-mail addresses for use in various languages.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a complete TCP three-way handshake to an associated TCP port. 5) An unspecified error in the implementation of the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) can be exploited to reload an affected device via a specially crafted SIP message. This vulnerability is reported in Cisco IOS with SIP voice services enabled, and which process SIP messages as part of configured VoIP functionality. 6) An unspecified error in the handling of TCP packets can be exploited to reload an affected device via a sequence of specially crafted TCP packets. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a complete TCP three-way handshake to an associated TCP port. This vulnerability is reported in Cisco IOS with the following features enabled: * Airline Product Set (ALPS) * Serial Tunnel Code (STUN) and Block Serial Tunnel Code (BSTUN) * Native Client Interface Architecture support (NCIA) * Data-link switching (DLSw) * Remote Source-Route Bridging (RSRB) * Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) * X.25 for Record Boundary Preservation (RBP) * X.25 over TCP (XOT) * X.25 Routing 7) An unspecified error in the handling of UDP packets can be exploited to block an interface of an affected device by sending a specially crafted UDP packets. SOLUTION: Please see the following vendor advisory for fixed versions. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-bundle.shtml PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: 1, 3, 5 - 9) Reported by the vendor. 2) The vendor also credits Jens Link.
