Cisco Security Advisory
Cisco RV180 VPN and RV180W Wireless-N Multifunction VPN Routers Unauthorized
Access Vulnerability
High
Advisory ID:
cisco-sa-20160803-rv180_1
Published:
2016 August 3 16:00 GMT
Version 1.0:
Final
CVSS Score:
Base - 7.1
Workarounds:

Cisco Bug IDs:
CSCuz43023
CVE-2016-1429
CWE-22
Summary
A vulnerability in the web interface of the Cisco RV180 VPN Router and Cisco
RV180W Wireless-N Multifunction VPN Router could allow an unauthenticated,
remote attacker to access arbitrary files on the system. This vulnerability
allows the attacker to perform directory traversal.
The vulnerability is due to lack of proper input verification and sanitization
of the user input directory path. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability
by sending a crafted HTTP request to the affected device. An exploit could
allow the attacker to read arbitrary files on the system that should be
restricted.
Cisco has not released and will not release a firmware update to address this
vulnerability. Mitigations for this vulnerability are available.
This advisory is available at the following link:
http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20160803-rv180_1
Affected Products
Vulnerable Products
All firmware versions of Cisco RV180 VPN Router and RV180W Wireless-N
Multifunction VPN Router are vulnerable.
Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable
No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by this
vulnerability.
Workarounds
There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability. The following two
mitigations may help limit exposure to this vulnerability:
Disable Remote Management
Caution: Do not disable remote management if the device is managed via the WAN
connection. This will result in loss of management connectivity to the device.
Disabling this feature prevents Cisco QuickVPN access.
Remote Management is disabled by default. If it is enabled, administrators can
disable it using the Web Access screen: Administration > Management Interface
> Web Access. Check the box for Disabled in the Remote Management field.
Disabling remote management helps ensure that only users on the LAN could
attempt to exploit the vulnerabilities. Remote management is not enabled by
default on the device.
Limit Remote Management Access to Specific IP Addresses
If remote management is required, harden the device so that it can be accessed
only by certain IP addresses, rather than the default setting of any. By
accessing the configuration screen (Administration > Management Interface >
Web Access), an administrator can change the Remote IP address field to ensure
only devices with specified IP addresses can access the device.
Fixed Software
Cisco has not released and will not release firmware updates to address the
vulnerability described in this advisory. The Cisco RV180 Router and the Cisco
RV180W Router have entered the end-of-life (EoL) process. Please refer to the
EoL notices for these products:
End-of-Sale and End-of-Life Announcement for the Cisco RV180W Wireless-N
Multifunction VPN Router
End-of-Sale and End-of-Life Announcement for the Cisco RV180 VPN Router
Customers are encouraged to migrate to the Cisco RV130W Wireless-N
Multifunction VPN Router.
When considering a device migration, customers are advised to consult the
Cisco Security Advisories and Responses archive at
http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and review subsequent advisories to determine
exposure and a complete upgrade solution.
In all cases, customers should ensure that new devices will be sufficient for
their network needs; new devices contain sufficient memory, and current
hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by
the new product. If the information is not clear, customers are advised to
contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted
maintenance providers.
Exploitation and Public Announcements
The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is not aware of any
public announcements or malicious use of the vulnerability that is described
in this advisory.
Source
This vulnerability was found and reported to Cisco from security researcher
Harri Kuosmanen.
