| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Hexis HawkEye G version 3.0.1.4912
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for various requests. This can be achieved through multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities. Specifically, attackers can add arbitrary accounts via the
name parameter to the "interface/rest/accounts/json" API endpoint. They can also turn off certain sensors, such as Url matching, DNS Inject, or IP Redirect Sensor, in a request to "interface/rest/dpi/setEnabled/1". Furthermore, attackers can perform whitelisting of malware MD5 hash IDs via the id parameter to "interface/rest/md5-threats/whitelist".Recommendations
For Hexis HawkEye G version 3.0.1.4912, consider disabling access to the "interface/rest/accounts/json", "interface/rest/dpi/setEnabled/1", and "interface/rest/md5-threats/whitelist" API endpoints until a patch is available. Restrict the use of the
name and id parameters in these endpoints to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, restrict access to the Url matching, DNS Inject, and IP Redirect Sensor features to prevent them from being turned off by unauthorized requests.Exploit
