============ Vulnerability Overview: ============
|
|
|
|
* OS Command Injection
|
|
=> parameter: wan_hostname
|
|
=> command: `%20ping%20192%2e168%2e178%2e101%20`
|
|
|
|
The vulnerability is caused by missing input validation in the wan_hostname parameter and can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands. With wget it is possible to upload and execute a backdoor to compromise the device.
|
|
You need to be authenticated to the device or you have to find other methods for inserting the malicious commands.

=> This setting is placed permanent into the configuration and so it gets executed on every bootup process of the device.

|
|
* For changing the current password there is no request to the current password
|
|
|
|
With this vulnerability an attacker is able to change the current password without knowing it. The attacker needs access to an authenticated browser.

* reflected XSS
|

=> parameter: submit_button

Injecting scripts into the parameter submit_button reveals that this parameter is not properly validated for malicious input.
