🔥 Overview

Zayed Shield is a professional cybersecurity solution that completely mitigates CVE-2025-68717, a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in KAYSUS KS-WR3600 routers (Firmware 1.0.5.9.1).

🎯 The Problem (CVE-2025-68717)

The KAYSUS KS-WR3600 router suffers from a CRITICAL authentication bypass vulnerability:

• ❌ Endpoints like /cgi-bin/system-tool accept empty or invalid sessions
• ❌ Attackers can piggyback on active user sessions
• ❌ No proper session validation
• ❌ Unauthorized access to sensitive configuration
• ❌ Privilege escalation without authentication

CVSS Score: Critical (Estimated 9.8/10)

✅ Our Solution

Zayed Shield provides a complete, production-ready security framework that:

• ✅ Blocks all empty/invalid session attempts (primary vulnerability fix)
• ✅ Prevents session hijacking through IP and fingerprint validation
• ✅ Enforces multi-layer authentication with secure token generation
• ✅ Detects and logs intrusion attempts in real-time
• ✅ Implements automatic IP blocking for suspicious activities
• ✅ Provides comprehensive security auditing and reporting

🎬 Quick Start

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/asrar-mared/درع-زايد.git
cd درع-زايد

# No dependencies required - pure Python 3!

Basic Usage

from vulnerability_hunter import VulnerabilityHunter

# Initialize the security system
hunter = VulnerabilityHunter()

# Add authorized users
hunter.add_user("admin", "SecurePassword123!", "admin")
hunter.add_user("user1", "UserPass456", "user")

# Create a secure session
session = hunter.create_session(
    username="admin",
    password="SecurePassword123!",
    ip_address="192.168.1.100",
    user_agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64)"
)

# Validate session before granting access
is_valid, message = hunter.validate_session(
    session_id=session.session_id,
    ip_address="192.168.1.100",
    user_agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64)",
    endpoint="/cgi-bin/system-tool"
)

if is_valid:
    # Grant access to sensitive endpoint
    print(f"✅ Access granted: {message}")
else:
    # Block access and log intrusion attempt
    print(f"🚫 Access denied: {message}")

🎯 How It Fixes CVE-2025-68717

The Original Vulnerability

# VULNERABLE CODE (Original KAYSUS implementation)
def access_system_tool(request):
    # ❌ CRITICAL FLAW: Accepts empty sessions!
    session_id = request.cookies.get('session', '')
    
    # ❌ No validation - just checks if ANY user is logged in
    if any_active_sessions():  # Wrong approach!
        return execute_privileged_action()
    
    return login_required()

Our Secure Implementation

# SECURE CODE (Zayed Shield implementation)
def validate_session(session_id, ip_address, user_agent, endpoint):
    # ✅ STEP 1: Reject empty/invalid sessions immediately
    if not session_id or session_id.strip() == "":
        log_intrusion("empty_session", ip_address, endpoint)
        return False, "❌ Empty session rejected"
    
    # ✅ STEP 2: Verify session exists and is valid
    if session_id not in active_sessions:
        log_intrusion("invalid_session", ip_address, endpoint)
        return False, "❌ Invalid session"
    
    session = active_sessions[session_id]
    
    # ✅ STEP 3: Check session expiration
    if session.is_expired():
        return False, "❌ Session expired"
    
    # ✅ STEP 4: Verify IP address (prevent hijacking)
    if session.ip_address != ip_address:
        log_intrusion("ip_mismatch", ip_address, endpoint)
        return False, "🚨 IP mismatch - Security alert"
    
    # ✅ STEP 5: Check fingerprint
    if not verify_fingerprint(session, user_agent):
        log_intrusion("fingerprint_mismatch", ip_address, endpoint)
    
    # ✅ STEP 6: Verify permissions for sensitive endpoints
    if is_sensitive_endpoint(endpoint):
        if session.access_level != "admin":
            return False, "🚫 Insufficient privileges"
    
    # ✅ All checks passed!
    session.update_activity()
    return True, "✅ Session validated"
