Firmware Analysis: Extraction of ASP Files in the GoAhead Architecture
maio 15, 2020
GoAhead is an open-source web architecture that is widely used in embedded systems thanks to its high performance and high availability. Traditional servers built on the GoAhead architecture usually see a large number of dynamic pages written in the Active Server Pages (ASP) scripting language and functions written in C/C++ that are registered to the scripting layer for ASP scripts’ invocation. For the purpose of more thorough security audits, we should not only understand how these functions are implemented but also analyze how ASP scripts are handled. This article uses the firmware of a certain switch as an example to illustrate how to extract ASP files when GoAhead is involved.
