How the Exploit Works

The exploit works by taking advantage of the client-side authentication mechanism in CHOCO TEI WATCHER mini. The attacker sends a specially crafted request to the server, which mistakenly interprets the request as authenticated. As a result, the server exposes sensitive information, such as the login password, which the attacker can then use to gain unauthorized access to the system.

Conceptual Example Code

Below is a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited:

GET /password-retrieval HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:89.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/89.0
Accept: application/json

This example represents a simple HTTP request. An attacker, knowing the vulnerability, would simply send this request to the server. The server, due to the vulnerability, would respond with the login credentials.

Mitigation

Users are urged to apply the vendor’s patch as soon as it is available. As a temporary mitigation, deploying a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can help to block or alert on any suspicious activity. Regular monitoring and auditing of network traffic can also aid in detecting any attempts to exploit this vulnerability.
