CVE-2024-8475

6.5 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass authentication in WiFiBurada by manipulating user-controlled variables that were assumed to be immutable. It affects all WiFiBurada installations before version 1.0.5, potentially exposing administrative functions and user data.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • WiFiBurada
Versions: All versions before 1.0.5
Operating Systems: Any OS running WiFiBurada
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All default installations of affected versions are vulnerable.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete system compromise allowing unauthorized access to administrative functions, user data theft, and potential lateral movement within the network.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to administrative interfaces leading to configuration changes, service disruption, and potential data exposure.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper network segmentation and monitoring, though authentication bypass remains possible.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - Authentication bypass vulnerabilities in internet-facing services are prime targets for attackers.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal attackers could exploit this to gain unauthorized access, but external threat is reduced.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Authentication bypass vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity once the manipulation method is understood.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: 1.0.5

Vendor Advisory: https://www.usom.gov.tr/bildirim/tr-24-1888

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Download WiFiBurada version 1.0.5 or later from official sources. 2. Backup current configuration. 3. Stop WiFiBurada service. 4. Install the new version. 5. Restore configuration if needed. 6. Restart WiFiBurada service.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Segmentation

all

Restrict access to WiFiBurada administration interface to trusted networks only

Access Control Lists

all

Implement IP-based access controls to limit who can reach the vulnerable interface

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict network segmentation to isolate WiFiBurada from untrusted networks
  • Enable detailed logging and monitoring for authentication attempts and access to administrative functions

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check WiFiBurada version via web interface or configuration files. If version is below 1.0.5, system is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Check web interface or configuration files for version information

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify version is 1.0.5 or higher and test authentication mechanisms to ensure they cannot be bypassed.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Failed authentication attempts followed by successful access
  • Access to administrative functions from unusual IP addresses
  • Authentication bypass patterns in logs

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual authentication traffic patterns
  • Access to admin endpoints without proper authentication sequence

SIEM Query:

source="WiFiBurada" AND (event_type="auth_failure" OR event_type="admin_access") | stats count by src_ip, user
