Kofax Capture 6.0.0.0 Unauthenticated File Read/Write & SMB Coercion via .NET Remoting

Description

Kofax Capture, now referred to as Tungsten Capture, version 6.0.0.0 (other versions may be affected) exposes a deprecated .NET Remoting HTTP channel on port 2424 via the Ascent Capture Service that is accessible without authentication and uses a default, publicly known endpoint identifier. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit .NET Remoting object unmarshalling techniques to instantiate a remote System.Net.WebClient object and read arbitrary files from the server filesystem, write attacker-controlled files to the server, or coerce NTLMv2 authentication to an attacker-controlled host, enabling sensitive credential disclosure, denial of service, remote code execution, or lateral movement depending on service account privileges and network environment.
