Rosewill RXS-3211 IP Camera Password Retriever

Created
05/30/2018

Description

This module takes advantage of a protocol design issue with the Rosewill admin executable in order to retrieve passwords, allowing remote attackers to take administrative control over the device. Other similar IP Cameras such as Edimax, Hawking, Zonet, etc, are also believed to have the same flaw, but not fully tested. The protocol design issue also allows attackers to reset passwords on the device.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
