Abusing SIP for Cross-Site Scripting? Most definitely!

Last updated on Jun 10, 2021 in , ,

Executive summary (TL;DR) SIP can be used as an attack vector for AppSec vulnerabilities such as cross-site scripting (XSS), potentially leading to unauthenticated remote compromise of critical systems. VoIPmonitor GUI had one such vulnerability which highlights this attack vector exceptionally well. The following writeup explores how persistent backdoor administrative access can be obtained by sending malicious SIP messages. This vulnerability was reported by Enable Security and fixed in VoIPmonitor GUI back in February 2021, using standard cross-site scripting protection mechanisms.…

SIPVicious PRO 6.0.0-beta.4 getting close to take-off!

This one’s a bit of a boring update for SIPVicious PRO. That’s because we’re getting to a stable place where flag names and values do not change too often. Which means, we’re getting out of beta rather soon! However, it is still a major update because we made a significant number of internal changes. For example, we standardized a number of flags to be the same across all tools. We discovered that we can minimize each tool’s flagset by making use of config flags such as --auth-config that allows you to configure behaviours specific to how SIPVicious handles authentication (e.…

Bug discovery diaries: Abusing VoIPmonitor for Remote Code Execution

Executive summary (TL;DR) We fuzzed VoIPmonitor by using SIPVicious PRO and got a crash in the software’s live sniffer feature when it is switched on. We identified the cause of the crash by looking at the source code, which was a classic buffer overflow. Then we realized that was fully exploitable since the binaries distributed do not have any memory corruption protection. So we wrote exploit code using ROP gadgets to get remote code execution by just sending a SIP packet.…
