Re: [The ManageOwnage Series, part II]: User credential disclosure in ManageEngine DeviceExpert

Hi Keith,

Thanks for pointing this out.
I realised the advisory is not very clear - you are right, it is a base 64
encoded md5 hash. To get the actual hash you have to use the following Ruby
code:
Base64.decode64(password).unpack('H*')

The hash is a md5 of
"admin12345678"

Also ManageEngine have decided to fix the issue, and have now released
version 5.9 build 5981 that resolves this vulnerability.

I've updated the advisory at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pedrib/PoC/master/me_deviceexpert-5.txt

Regards
Pedro

Are you sure that this is an MD5 Hash? It looks more like a base64 encoded
string (decoded value " :N yZX@{ ")

Hi,

You can read the usernames and MD5 hashed passwords of all the users
in the Device Expert application by sending an unauthenticated
request.
I am releasing this as a 0 day as ManageEngine have responded that
they do not consider this a priority and won't fix it in the near
future unless a customer requests it. See details below.

To clarify, older versions are definitely vulnerable, I just don't know on
which versions the vulnerability initially appeared.
