KL-001-2017-014 : Barracuda WAF Support Tunnel Hijack

Title: Barracuda WAF Support Tunnel Hijack
Advisory ID: KL-001-2017-014
Publication Date: 2017.07.06

1. Vulnerability Details

     Affected Vendor: Barracuda
     Affected Product: Web Application Firewall V360
     Affected Version: Firmware v8.0.1.014
     Platform: Embedded Linux
     CWE Classification: CWE-304: Missing Critical Step In Authentication
     Impact: Remote Access
     Attack vector: DNS, SSH

2. Vulnerability Description

     During the creation of a tunnel connection to barracuda
     support, the code creating the tunnels fails to:
       1) Validate DNS Records,
       2) Validate SSH Host Key, and
       3) Transmit Public SSH Key over an encrypted, verified channel.

3. Technical Description

     file: /usr/local/bin/support-tunnel

     The first host added to the available remote hosts is done through using
     DNS resolution on support01.barracudanetworks.com. If an attacker can control DNS,
     it is possible to subvert network traffic by creating records that will resolve to
     an attacker's IP address.

       [snip]
       sub remote_hosts() {
           my $central = 'support01.barracudanetworks.com';
           my @hosts;
           my $host = resolv_host($central) || $central;

           push @hosts, {
               'ssh' => { 'host' => $host, 'port' => 22 },
               'web' => { 'host' => $host, 'port' => 80 },
           };

           push @hosts, {
               'ssh' => { 'host' => '64.235.147.77', 'port' => 22 },
               'web' => { 'host' => '64.235.147.77', 'port' => 80 },
           };

           push @hosts, {
               'ssh' => { 'host' => '64.235.154.112', 'port' => 22 },
               'web' => { 'host' => '64.235.154.112', 'port' => 80 },
           };

           return @hosts;
       } # remote_hosts
       [snip]

     The appliance will send a URL-encoded copy of the public key using HTTP.

       sub tunnel_post_key($$$$) {
               my $host        = shift;
               my $port        = shift;
               my $serial      = shift;
               my $pubkey      = shift;

               [snip]

               $url    = sprintf('/tunnel-broker?serial=%s&cs=%s&key=%s&keycs=%s&version=%s', $serial,
Digest::MD5::md5_hex($serial), url_escape($pubkey), Digest::MD5::md5_hex($pubkey), url_escape(VERSION));

               #
               # Write an HTTP request.
               #
               $req    = "GET $url HTTP/1.0\r\nHost: $host\r\n\r\n";

               do {
                       $retval = aio_write($sock, $req);
               } while ($retval == AIO_WOULDBLOCK && $stop > time);

               if ($retval != AIO_SUCCESS) {
                       throw(SYSTEM_EXCEPTION, "aio_write($addr:$port, $req): $!");
                       aio_close($sock);
                       return undef;
               }

               [snip]

               return 1;
       } # tunnel_post_key

     It should be noted that the appliance is shipped with a default key
     (pvt_md5:194d9a5167153e1137134e1896d67b47,pub_md5:62c3a6e160cc501f2ffa2d1434176e93)
     but will generate and submit a new key should the default key no longer exist.
     This happens in the ssh_key_path function.

     Finally, the appliance specifically sets StrictHostKeyChecking to no.
     This instructs the ssh client to ignore any SSH host-key mismatch and allows
     an attacker to more easily leverage their own SSH server for attacks.

       sub ssh_command_args($\$$$$;$$) {
               my $sshcmd      = shift;
               my $serialref   = shift;
               my $sshkey      = shift;
               my $sshhost     = shift || 'support01.barracudanetworks.com';
               my $sshport     = shift || 22;
               my $lsshport    = shift || local_ssh_port || 22;
               my $lwebport    = shift || local_web_port || 8000;
               my $lsslvpnport = shift;
               if( get_product() eq "bvs" ) {
                       $lsslvpnport = local_sslvpn_port || 443 if !$lsslvpnport;
               }
               my @version     = ssh_version_of($sshcmd);
               my (@args, $has_unixfwd, $has_exitonfwdfailure, $has_defineremotehost);

               $has_unixfwd            = ($version[0] > 4 || ($version[0] == 4 && $version[1] >= 4));
               $has_exitonfwdfailure   = ($version[0] > 4 || ($version[0] == 4 && $version[1] >= 4));
               $has_defineremotehost   = ($version[0] >= 4);

               push @args, '-T';                               # Don't allocate a TTY
               push @args, '-' . ('v' x want_verbose)          # Passthru verbosity
                       if want_verbose;
               push @args, '-o', 'StrictHostKeyChecking=no';   # Ignore Support01 host key (bad idea?)
               push @args, '-i', $sshkey;

               push @args, '-o', 'ExitOnForwardFailure=yes'    # Abort if forwarding fails. (By default if remote
forwarding fails SSH continues the session.)
                       if $has_exitonfwdfailure;

               if ($has_unixfwd) {
                       push @args, '-R', "[/var/tunnels/ssh/${$serialref}.sock]:127.0.0.1:$lsshport";
                       push @args, '-R', "[/var/tunnels/www/${$serialref}.sock]:127.0.0.1:$lwebport";
                       push @args, '-R', "[/var/tunnels/sslvpn/${$serialref}.sock]:127.0.0.1:$lsslvpnport" if
get_product() eq "bvs";

     To demonstrate, we created DNS entries to force support01.barracudanetworks.com to resolve to 1.3.3.7.
     Next, we bound to port 80. Using either the web application or admin console, we initiated a support
     tunnel connection.

       # nc -l -p 80
       GET

     After creating the appropriate user and adding the public key to the
     authorized_keys file, the SSH connection was successful.
