Descriptions

The devices allow access to an unprotected endpoint that allows MPFS
file system binary image upload without authentication. The MPFS2 file
system module provides a light-weight read-only file system that can be
stored in external EEPROM, external serial flash, or internal flash
program memory. This file system serves as the basis for the HTTP2 web
server module, but is also used by the SNMP module and is available to
other applications that require basic read-only storage capabilities.
This can be exploited to overwrite the flash program memory that holds
the web server's main interfaces and execute arbitrary code.

Los dispositivos permiten el acceso a un punto final desprotegido que permite la carga de imágenes binarias del sistema de archivos MPFS sin autenticación. El módulo de sistema de archivos MPFS2 proporciona un sistema de archivos liviano de solo lectura que se puede almacenar en una EEPROM externa, una memoria flash serial externa o una memoria flash interna de programa. Este sistema de archivos sirve como base para el módulo de servidor web HTTP2, pero también lo utiliza el módulo SNMP y está disponible para otras aplicaciones que requieren capacidades básicas de almacenamiento de solo lectura. Esto puede aprovecharse para sobrescribir la memoria flash del programa que contiene las interfaces principales del servidor web y ejecutar código arbitrario.
