Module Overview


Name: Cambium cnPilot r200/r201 Login Scanner and Config Dump
Module: auxiliary/scanner/http/cnpilot_r_web_login_loot
Source code: modules/auxiliary/scanner/http/cnpilot_r_web_login_loot.rb
Disclosure date: -
Last modification time: 2022-01-23 15:28:32 +0000
Supported architecture(s): -
Supported platform(s): -
Target service / protocol: http, https
Target network port(s): 80, 443, 3000, 8000, 8008, 8080, 8443, 8880, 8888
List of CVEs: CVE-2017-5260

This module scans for Cambium cnPilot r200/r201 management login portal(s), attempts to identify valid credentials, and dump device configuration. The device has at least two (2) users - admin and user. Due to an access control vulnerability, it is possible for 'user' account to access full device config. All information, including passwords, and keys, is stored insecurely, in clear-text form, thus allowing unauthorized admin access to any user.

Module Ranking and Traits


Module Ranking:

  • normal: The exploit is otherwise reliable, but depends on a specific version and can't (or doesn't) reliably autodetect. More information about ranking can be found here.

Basic Usage


This module is a scanner module, and is capable of testing against multiple hosts.

msf > use auxiliary/scanner/http/cnpilot_r_web_login_loot
