#helper.cvsstable(confidentiality: "N", integrity: "N", availability: "N")
|
||||
|
||||
=== Description
|
||||
|
||||
Administrative web applications and interfaces enable the management of organizational resources, processes, and data. These applications are typically used by administrative staff and other authorized persons to perform a variety of tasks. For example, administrators can use technical administration interfaces to read runtime data from servers and ensure smooth operation.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Finding
|
||||
|
||||
When searching for administration interfaces, the applications `Uptime Kuma` at `https://status.maride.inv` and `Nginx Proxy Manager` at `https://nginx.maride.inv` were found. The URLs of the administration interfaces were found via TLS Transparency Logs#footnote[https://letsencrypt.org/docs/ct-logs/].
|
||||
|
||||
Both applications have a login screen and cannot be used by unauthorized visitors. Since administration accounts are set up during the initial configuration of the applications, it was not possible to log in using default credentials. A brute force attack was not performed to check for common passwords.
|
||||
|
||||
The version of `Uptime Kuma` is not specified, while the version of `Nginx Proxy Manager` is 2.11.2 and free of publicly known vulnerabilities (CVEs).
|
||||
|
||||
=== Evaluation
|
||||
|
||||
The administration interfaces are not vulnerable and cannot be used without valid credentials. Because of this, the findings are considered purely informative.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Recommendation
|
||||
|
||||
It should be checked whether these administration interfaces must be accessible via the Internet. Protecting the interfaces behind an additional authentication layer, such as HTTP Basic Auth, or only offering them within a protected network such as a VPN would minimize the attack surface and prevent the possible exploitation of security vulnerabilities in the administration interfaces that may be found in the future.

= Management Summary
|
||||
|
||||
== Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
This penetration test was conducted to proactively identify, assess, and validate the severity of security vulnerabilities within the defined scope of #targetInSentence, specifically those exploitable by #helper.placeholder("external attackers in real-world scenarios"). Adversarial techniques to bypass controls, gain unauthorized access, and compromise critical assets were performed for this test scenario to determine the actual impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
|
||||
|
||||
== Test Object
|
||||
|
||||
#helper.placeholder(lorem(30))
|
||||
|
||||
== Test Methodology
|
||||
|
||||
The aim of the test was to uncover vulnerabilities and weaknesses of all kinds. These were carried out in accordance with the OWASP Web Security Testing Guide, version 4#footnote("https://owasp.org/www-project-web-security-testing-guide/stable/4-Web_Application_Security_Testing"), and, where applicable, the MITRE ATT&CK Framework#footnote("https://attack.mitre.org"). Recommendations for system hardening were made based on the current version of the CIS Benchmarks#footnote("https://www.cisecurity.org/") and the appropriate variant in each case.
|
||||
|
||||
The penetration test was performed as a #helper.placeholder("black box test, without any access to source code or other information other than the scope").
|
||||
|
||||
== Findings
|
||||
|
||||
The penetration test revealed #context(helper.riskCategoryStats.values().map(v => v.final()).sum()) findings, which can be divided into the following risk categories:
|
||||
|
||||
#table(
|
||||
columns: (16.66%, 16.66%, 16.66%, 16.66%, 16.66%, 16.66%),
|
||||
align: center,
|
||||
[Critical], [High], [Medium], [Low], [None], [Other],
|
||||
table.cell(context(helper.riskCategoryStats.Critical.final()), fill: red, align: center),
|
||||
table.cell(context(helper.riskCategoryStats.High.final()), fill: orange, align: center),
|
||||
table.cell(context(helper.riskCategoryStats.Medium.final()), fill: yellow, align: center),
|
||||
table.cell(context(helper.riskCategoryStats.Low.final()), fill: lime, align: center),
|
||||
table.cell(context(helper.riskCategoryStats.None.final()), fill: white, align: center),
|
||||
table.cell(context(helper.riskCategoryStats.Other.final()), fill: gray, align: center),
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
== Recommendations & Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
Based on the results of this penetration test, #targetInSentence may be exposed to a production environment.
|
||||
|
||||
#pagebreak()
|
||||
== Test Scope and Setup
|
||||
|
||||
The test was conducted from #helper.placeholder("01.01.1970") to #helper.placeholder("01.01.1970").
|
||||
#helper.placeholder([
|
||||
Connection to #targetHandy was made through a dedicated VPN connection via vpnhost.maride.inv. The inner IP address of the test device was 10.0.0.42.
|
||||
])
|
||||
|
||||
The following scope was set for the penetration test:
|
||||
|
||||
#let inscope = table.cell("In scope", fill: lime, align: center)
|
||||
#let outscope = table.cell("Out of scope", fill: gray, align: center)
|
||||
|
||||
#table(
|
||||
columns: (25%, 50%, 25%,),
|
||||
align: center,
|
||||
[*Type*], [*Value*], [*State*],
|
||||
[Address], [#helper.placeholder("10.23.42.1")], inscope,
|
||||
[Address], [#helper.placeholder("2001:db8::2342")], inscope,
|
||||
[Domain], [#helper.placeholder("*.maride.inv")], inscope,
|
||||
[URL], [#helper.placeholder("secret.maride.inv/flag.txt")], outscope,
|
||||
[URL], [#helper.placeholder("important.maride.inv/rickroll")], outscope,
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
From the perspective of the machine used for the penetration test, the network layout was seen as shown in the graph below - simplified by leaving out hops that are not relevant for the penetration test, like third-party network operators and ISPs.

== CIA Triad
|
||||
|
||||
The CIA triad is a fundamental framework for information security that encompasses three important principles: confidentiality, integrity, and availability. In this report, each of the three principles is used to highlight specific aspects of the security implications for the area under observation. All three principles are explained in more detail below.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Confidentiality (C)
|
||||
The principle of confidentiality means that information is only accessible to authorized users or entities. It protects sensitive data from unauthorized access or disclosure through measures such as encryption, access controls, and data classification. By maintaining confidentiality, companies reduce the risks of data breaches and unauthorized disclosure, thereby preserving the privacy and trustworthiness of their information assets.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Integrity (I)
|

Integrity preserves the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of data. It prevents unauthorized changes, deletions, or falsifications through techniques such as checksums, digital signatures, and access controls. By maintaining data integrity, companies ensure the reliability and credibility of their information assets, thereby minimizing the risk of fraud or manipulation.

||||
|
||||
=== Availability (A)
|
||||
Availability ensures the smooth and reliable provision of information. Potential interruptions to services, systems, or networks are mitigated through redundancy, failover mechanisms, and disaster recovery planning. By maintaining high availability, companies maintain operational continuity and user satisfaction by mitigating the impact of downtime or failures. At the same time, the unavailability of information can have serious consequences, such as lost revenue.

== Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
|
||||
|
||||
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) provides a standardized, vendor- and platform-agnostic methodology for quantifying the technical severity of software, hardware, and firmware vulnerabilities. Its outputs deliver numerical scores that contextualize a vulnerability’s risk relative to others, facilitating consistent prioritization across diverse systems. CVSS is structured around three interdependent metric groups: *Base*, *Temporal*, and *Environmental*. The Base Score captures the inherent characteristics of a vulnerability (e.g., exploitability, impact), assigning it a severity rating under idealized conditions. Temporal Metrics dynamically adjust this base score based on time-sensitive factors like exploit availability or the existence of patches. Finally, Environmental Metrics tailor the severity assessment to an organization’s specific deployment, accounting for mitigations, criticality of affected assets, and other contextual factors unique to the environment.
|
||||
|
||||
The only metric group that can be calculated without deep knowledge of the environment and situation is the Base Score, as the Base Score reflects intrinsic vulnerability characteristics (e.g., exploit complexity, impact on confidentiality/integrity) and is designed to be vendor-neutral and environment-agnostic. It does not account for the specific client’s infrastructure, patch status, or operational context. Since a penetration test reports on a single target environment, the Base Score represents the objective severity of the flaw within the scope of the test (e.g., "this flaw could be exploited in this network").
|
||||
|
||||
The version of the Common Vulnerability Scoring System used in this report is 3.1#footnote("https://www.first.org/cvss/v3-1/user-guide").
|
||||
|
||||
=== Attack Vector (AV)
|
||||
|
||||
This metric quantifies how remotely an attacker can exploit a vulnerability, directly influencing the Base Score:
|
||||
|
||||
- *Network (N)*: Highest severity. Attack possible from anywhere on the internet (e.g., sending a malicious packet across routers).
|
||||
- *Adjacent (A)*: Moderate severity. Exploit limited to local networks (e.g., same subnet, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi, or secure VPN).
|
||||
- *Local (L)*: Lower severity. Requires local access (console/SSH) or user interaction (e.g., phishing a document).
|
||||
- *Physical (P)*: Lowest severity. Requires direct physical contact (e.g., evil-maid attacks, cold boot, DMA via USB).
|
||||
|
||||
=== Attack Complexity (AC)
|
||||
|
||||
This metric quantifies the technical difficulty of exploiting a vulnerability, independent of user interaction. It directly impacts the Base Score:
|
||||
|
||||
- *Low (L)*: Attack is repeatable and predictable with no special conditions. Example: Exploiting a buffer overflow in a service accessible via network.
|
||||
- *High (H)*: Exploit requires attacker preparation or external factors, reducing reliability. This may include:
|
||||
- Gathering target-specific knowledge (e.g., configuration settings, shared secrets).
|
||||
- Overcoming mitigations (e.g., race conditions, anti-exploit techniques).
|
||||
- Network manipulation (e.g., man-in-the-middle attacks).
|
||||
- Example: Exploiting a flaw requiring a victim’s browser to accept a malicious file.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Privileges Required (PR)
|
||||
|
||||
This metric measures the attacker’s initial access level needed to exploit a vulnerability, directly impacting the Base Score:
|
||||
|
||||
- *None (N)*: Highest severity. Exploitable by unauthorized attackers with no prior access (e.g., unauthenticated web attack).
|
||||
- *Low (L)*: Moderate severity. Requires basic user privileges (e.g., standard account access to non-sensitive resources).
|
||||
- *High (H)*: Lowest severity. Needs administrative privileges to access critical system settings/files (e.g., root/superuser access).
|
||||
|
||||
=== User Interaction (UI)
|
||||
|
||||
This metric assesses whether a vulnerability requires human involvement (beyond the attacker) to be exploited, directly influencing the Base Score:
|
||||
|
||||
- *None (N)*: Highest severity. Exploitable without user action (e.g., automated network attack).
|
||||
- *Required (R)*: Lower severity. Requires user interaction (e.g., clicking a malicious link or installing software).
|
||||
|
||||
=== Scope (S)
|
||||
|
||||
This metric determines if a vulnerability breaches security boundaries, allowing impact on components outside its original security scope (e.g., an app exploiting a database). Directly impacts Base Score severity:
|
||||
|
||||
- *Unchanged (U)*: Lowest severity. Vulnerability only affects resources within the same security authority (e.g., a web app affecting its own files).
|
||||
- *Changed (C)*: Highest severity. Vulnerability crosses security boundaries, impacting components under different authorities (e.g., a compromised web server accessing a database).
