# HPE Edgeline Infrastructure Manager Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities

#
# 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 [email protected]
# [email protected]'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
