CVE-2019-10655 is an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability affecting Grandstream GAC2500 firmware 1.0.3.35, GXP2200 firmware 1.0.3.27, GVC3202 firmware 1.0.3.51, and GXV3275 and GXV3240 firmware before 1.0.3.219 Beta. Exploitation chains a cookie-based buffer overflow that overwrites an authentication-related data structure with command injection through shell metacharacters in the priority parameter of the management log-retrieval operation. The chain bypasses authentication and permits remote code execution. A browser-mediated CSRF exploitation route is also possible because lighttpd accepts the cookie through an Accept HTTP header supplied by XMLHttpRequest. Zerobot and a Mirai variant incorporate exploits for this vulnerability.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting Grandstream GXV31XX IP multimedia phones. The exploit leverages two vulnerabilities: a command injection in the 'settimezone' action's 'timezone' parameter and an authentication bypass via a specially crafted 'phonecookie' cookie. The module allows unauthenticated remote command execution on affected devices by sending HTTP requests to the /manager endpoint. It supports multiple payloads, including bind shells and Meterpreter reverse shells, and is weaponized for operational use. The code is written in Ruby and structured as a standard Metasploit exploit module, making it easy to use within the Metasploit framework. The exploit specifically targets devices running vulnerable firmware versions as referenced in CVE-2019-10655.
