Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in F5 BIG-IP 11.0.0/11.1.0/11.2.0/11.2.1 (Firewall Software). This issue affects an unknown code of the file sam/admin/reports/php/saveSettings.php of the component Accelerator. The manipulation of the argument defaultQuery with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in sam/admin/reports/php/saveSettings.php in the (1) APM WebGUI in F5 BIG-IP LTM, GTM, ASM, Link Controller, PSM, APM, Edge Gateway, and Analytics and (2) AVR WebGUI in WebAccelerator and WOM 11.2.x before 11.2.0-HF3 and 11.2.x before 11.2.1-HF3 allow remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the defaultQuery parameter.

The weakness was published 01/22/2013 by Stefan Viehböck with SEC Consult as 93 as confirmed mailinglist post (Bugtraq). The advisory is shared at seclists.org. The public release has been coordinated with F5. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2012-3000 since 05/30/2012. The attack may be initiated remotely. A simple authentication is needed for exploitation. Technical details as well as a public exploit are known. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1505 for this issue.

After immediately, there has been an exploit disclosed. The exploit is available at sec-consult.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. We expect the 0-day to have been worth approximately $5k-$25k. By approaching the search of inurl:sam/admin/reports/php/saveSettings.php it is possible to find vulnerable targets with Google Hacking. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 78141 (F5 Networks BIG-IP : SQL injection vulnerability from an authenticated source (SOL14154)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family F5 Networks Local Security Checks.
