In this final part of this series, we are finally going to explain how the stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability can be exploited to gain unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) on the Synology BC500 camera.

In this fourth part of the series, we analyze the memory corruption identified previously and manage to overwrite the program pointer!
In this third part of the series, we focus on the exposed web services running on TCP ports 80 and 443.
Since a valid exploit chain must achieve code execution without prior authentication, we focus on the available functionality that can be accessed without authentication.
In this second blog post of the series, we start with the reconnaissance phase on the camera, a crucial step in understanding our target.
The aim here is to gather information about the target and identify potential vulnerabilities.
Around a year ago a few Compass analysts watched a talk at the Insomni’Hack conference about the Pwn2Own contest.
This is when they decided to take part! In this blog post, they talk about how they picked their target, got the firmware from the camera, and got into the shell.
In today’s interconnected world, it is a well-known fact that systems with Internet exposure are under continual threat of cyber-attacks. This risk extends from private websites to corporate infrastructure. With the increasing modernization of Industrial Control Systems (ICS), these vital components also become more exposed to such threats. But what is the extent and nature […]
TL;DR An attacker is able to register new security keys (FIDO) or other authentication methods (TOTP, Email, Phone etc.) after a successful device code phishing attack. This allows an attacker to backdoor the account (FIDO) or perform the self-service password reset for the account with the newly registered sign-in methods. Microsoft deemed this not a vulnerability.
In June last year, the good folks at SpecterOps dropped awesome research on Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) misconfigurations. Since then, we find and report these critical vulnerabilities at our customers regularly. One of these new attack path is relaying NTLM authentication to unprotected HTTP endpoints. This allows an attacker to get a valid […]
Passwordless products promise greater security and convenience by allowing users to log in to Windows systems with only their smartphone. But what is going on behind the scenes and how could a domain’s security stance be worsened by such a solution? In this post I will explain how these products are implemented and detail the vulnerabilities and weaknesses discovered in three tested products.
SharePoint is a very popular browser-based collaboration and content management platform. Due to its high complexity, proprietary technology and confusing terminology it is often perceived as a black-box that IT and security professionals do not feel very comfortable with. These days, web security topics are well understood by many security professionals, penetration testers and vendors. But what […]
