Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Cardo Systems Scala Rider Q3 (affected version not known). Affected is some unknown functionality of the file /cardo/api of the component Cardo-Updater. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a privileges management vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-269. The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

The weakness was presented 06/03/2014 by Max Moser with modzero AG as Ride With The Devil as confirmed blog post (Website). The advisory is shared for download at remote-exploit.org. The public release happened without coordination with the vendor. The blog post contains:

The vendor has been informed about this blogpost and the software is removed from my systems. Everyone with the cardo-updater installed should do the same.
This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2014-125001. The exploitability is told to be difficult. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The MITRE ATT&CK project declares the attack technique as T1068. The advisory points out:
During the installation, I was informed by my application monitor Hands Off! (https://www.oneperiodic.com/products/handsoff/) that a new binary "cardo-updater" (running as root!) wants to bind itself to TCP port 8080. Wait a minute. Wtf ... listening on port 8080? After further investigation, I recognised that the binary is installed as a LaunchAgent and thus the application is executed as root. Just to make this clear - I just installed a service running as root and listening on port 8080 on every interface of my computer -- what could possibly go wrong? (…) Depending on what setting you change on the Cardo website, a corresponding request will be constructed and executed.

It is possible to mitigate the weakness by firewalling tcp/8080.
