Attackers can gain sensitive information from the system. Organizations using this specific firmware version are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • EndRun Technologies Sonoma D12 Network Time Server (GPS)
Versions: F/W 6010-0071-000 Ver 4.00
Operating Systems: Embedded firmware
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Specific vulnerable component not detailed in available references; likely affects web management interface or network services.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Full system compromise allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands, steal sensitive data, modify device configuration, or use the device as a pivot point into the network.

🟠

Likely Case

Information disclosure of system data, configuration details, or network information that could be used for further attacks.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if proper network segmentation and access controls prevent unauthorized access to the device management interface.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - Network time servers are often exposed to networks and could be directly accessible from the internet in some configurations.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Even internally, the vulnerability could be exploited by malicious insiders or compromised internal systems.

🎯 Exploit Status

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

OS command injection vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity once the injection point is identified.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: http://endrun.com

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Check vendor website for firmware updates
2. Download latest firmware from EndRun Technologies
3. Follow vendor's firmware update procedure
4. Verify successful update and restart device

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Segmentation

all

Isolate the Sonoma D12 device from untrusted networks and restrict access to management interfaces

Access Control Lists

all

Implement strict firewall rules to limit which IP addresses can communicate with the device

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict network segmentation to isolate the device from untrusted networks
  • Monitor network traffic to/from the device for suspicious command injection patterns

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check device firmware version via web interface or serial console: should show F/W 6010-0071-000 Ver 4.00

Check Version:

Check via web interface at device IP or use vendor-specific CLI commands

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify firmware version has been updated to a version later than 4.00

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual command execution in system logs
  • Multiple failed authentication attempts
  • Unexpected process execution

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual network traffic patterns to/from the device
  • Suspicious HTTP requests containing shell metacharacters

SIEM Query:

Search for patterns like ';', '|', '&', '`', '$()' in HTTP requests to device management interface
