COMMAND
Cisco SNMP unlimitted access
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
Cisco ubr900 series routers
PROBLEM
Scott of Security Secrets revealed :
Using any combination of the following SNMP commands and community,
access to the config was granted (I.e : any community name provided
will work) :
/ Snmp Commands /
snmp-server engineID local 0000000...(the rest)
snmp-server community hardtoguess RO
no snmp-server ifindex persist
snmp-server manager
/ Community /
xyzzy
agent_steal
freekevin
fubar
Notice, that not once, was the RO community name of \'hardtoguess\'
used, and there was no mention in the config of any RW string. A \'sh
snmp comm\' turned up only the RO name, as well as the widely
documented \'cable-docsis\' problem.
This was tested with Solarwinds Network Browser, as well as the
snmpset/snmpget/snmpwalk tools available in Linux.
