Sensitive Information Disclosure in Franklin Fueling Systems TS-550 evo tsaws.cgi

IdentifiersCVE-2013-7247CWE-284

CVE-2013-7247 is an insufficient access control vulnerability in the TS-550 evo web management interface from Franklin Fueling Systems. In affected firmware, including 2.0.0.6833 and other versions before 2.4.0, the cgi-bin/tsaws.cgi endpoint processes the cmdWebGetConfiguration action in a TSA_REQUEST without enforcing appropriate authorization boundaries. As a result, a low-privilege user can invoke this action and retrieve sensitive configuration data, including application user names and password hashes stored in DES format. The flaw exposes credential material that should be restricted to highly privileged administrative contexts.

ANALYST BRIEF

Impact, mitigation & remediation

What it means. What to do now. Patch path, mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.

Impact

What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.

Successful exploitation discloses sensitive authentication data for all users configured on the device, specifically user names and password hashes. Because the hashes are stored in DES format, they may be susceptible to offline cracking, which can lead to recovery of plaintext credentials. Compromise of those credentials can enable unauthorized access to authenticated management functions and may facilitate broader compromise of the TS-550 evo device and associated operational environment.

Mitigation

If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.

Until remediation is fully deployed, restrict network access to the device management interface and web application to trusted administrative networks only. Minimize exposure of the management service, enforce network segmentation around affected devices, and monitor for unauthorized requests to the vulnerable CGI functionality and other suspicious management activity. Review device accounts for weak or reused passwords because exposed hashes may enable credential recovery.

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Upgrade Franklin Fueling Systems TS-550 evo devices to firmware version 2.4.0 or later, which is identified as addressing this issue. Validate that the upgraded firmware is deployed across all affected devices and confirm that access to configuration-retrieval functionality is properly restricted to authorized administrative roles only.
