Nice video I would love to see in the next videos about exploiting the firmware, what are you looking for, how to attack the services without falling into looking for published CVEs, but rather to discover new bugs or what things we should investigate either technical or knowledge to exploit such things at the application level, once extracted the firmware.

You generally just use binwalk and try and mount FS on loop back Dev then you can explore the file system (usually it’s squash but binwalk can handle that). Then you can re-host or disassemble what you want but most people pillage the files for secrets that are generally out in the open…. - Credential - MIT Vuln Researcher Person

The XML files are how you configure Voip Phone. See if you can find the provisioning manual and accompanying software to figure out what's in each file. I suspect the files are encrypted and you may need the software or key to decrypt them.

Interesting. You could use openssl to decode the various certificates into a human friendly version for more details. Also - the 20 pin connector that you pointed out at the start of the video looks like a JTAG header. - one way to check would be to see if half of them (one row) should be joined to ground.

In regards to the q-tip fuzz getting hooked on the pins. My girlfriend uses these special type of cotton swabs called "glob mops" for cleaning her...medicinal tools. They're like normal cotton swabs, but they're packed really densely, and one end is packed to a fine point. May be useful for something like that 🤔
@jaybrooks1098

to clean the chip before putting it into the reader, you can just dip the whole chip into alcohol... way faster and better than cleaning it with qtips. to clean the solder of the pins, you can put the solder wick on the table and put the pins on it, then run the soldering tip over them, i find it easier and safer that way (you wont bend the pins).

Most likely the pin header is for connecting JTAG. It could be possible to dump the FLASH and even debug the device using that port and no need to do any hardware job. All you need is a tool like PEEDI, BDI2000 or BDI3000.

You don't see a file system as the device uses TFTP provided by the network to run the firmware from the ram directly. Cisco VOIP phones do the same thing. They call the (MAC ADDRESS).xml then call there model number.bin to run the .xml is stored on the device while the .bin is downloaded every time. Upon boot up they check the .xml vs the TFTP for consistency.

@@mattbrwn Yeah, I thought the actual blocks and how they're divided was the responsibility of the OS, I assume it might be possible for you to find contiguous blocks without any problem. However, with your findings about the cross site injection, that kinda voids the need to figure out how that works. Worst case scenario you can go back to what it was before!
