Vendor description:  
-------------------  
D-Link Corporation is a Taiwanese multinational networking equipment   
manufacturing corporation. The DIR-3060 (also known as the EXO AC3000 Smart   
Mesh Wi-Fi Router) is one of their higher-end home/small business routers.   
  
  
Vulnerability overview/description:  
-----------------------------------  
The D-Link DIR-3060 is affected by a post-authentication command injection  
vulnerability. Any person who is able to gain authenticated access to a   
DIR-3060 would be able to run arbitrary system commands on the device as the   
system "admin" user, with root privileges.   
  
  
Proof of concept:  
-----------------  
When a SOAP request is made to the SetVirtualServerSettings SOAP endpoint, the  
function at 00461918 in prog.cgi is invoked. This function traverses the SOAP  
XML request body, stores expected SOAP field values, and takes different paths  
depending on the values.   
  
If a request with a non-null LocalIPAddress, Enabled set to “true”, an   
InternalPort of “9” and a ProtocolType of “UDP” is sent, the function   
CheckArpTables (named by me, based at 0046163c) is invoked.  
  
// ...snip   
iVar5 = strcmp(Enabled,"true");   
if ((((iVar5 == 0) && (LocalIPAddress != (char *)0x0)) &&   
(iVar5 = strcmp(InternalPort,"9"), iVar5 == 0)) &&   
(iVar5 = strcmp(ProtocolType,"UDP"), iVar5 == 0)) {   
local_4154 = local_4154 + 1;   
iVar5 = CheckArpTables(LocalIPAddress, InternalPort, ProtocolType, 0xdc, local_4154);   
if (iVar5 == -1) {   
local_4160 = 0xb;   
goto LAB_00462504;   
}   
}   
// ...snip  
  
Interestingly, UDP/9 correlates to the canonical Discard Protocol, which is the  
TCP/UDP/IP equivalent of /dev/null.   
  
The CheckArpTables() function attempts to check the device ARP records, by   
calling the arp system command and grep’ing the output. However, the user-  
controlled value passed as the LocalIPAddress is written directly into the   
command line format string with snprint(). This string is then passed directly  
to a function called FCGI_popen(), which is a library function imported from   
libfcgi.so.  
  
undefined CheckArpTables(char *LocalIPAddress, char *InternalPort, char *ProtocolType, undefined param_4, int param_5) {  
// ...snip...  
memset(buffer, 0, 0x40);  
// ...snip...  
snprintf(buffer, 0x40, "arp | grep %s | awk \'{printf $4}\'", LocalIPAddress);  
iVar1 = FCGI_popen(buffer, "r");  
// ...snip...   
}  
  
We can see in libfcgi.so that FCGI_popen() is essentially only a thin wrapper   
around the stdio popen() library function. Arguments passed to FCGI_popen()   
get passed directly to popen().  
  
  
int FCGI_popen(char *param_1, char *param_2)   
{  
FILE *__stream;   
int iVar1;   
__stream = popen(param_1,param_2);   
iVar1 = FCGI_OpenFromFILE(__stream);   
if ((__stream != (FILE *)0x0) && (iVar1 == 0)) {   
pclose(__stream);   
}   
return iVar1;   
}  
  
Since the LocalIPAddress value is not sanitized or checked in any way, a   
crafted command injection string can be passed as the LocalIPAddress, which   
will then be written to the arp command format string, and passed (almost)   
directly to popen().
