Detailed Description |
The Linksys WRT54G Wireless Router seems to be vulnerable to multiple remote vulnerabilities. Linksys WRT54G Wireless Router versions prior to 4.20.6 are vulnerable to the following vulnerabilities:
1) Download and replace the configuration of affected routers via a special POST request to the 'restore.cgi' or 'upgrade.cgi' script. 2) Execute arbitrary machine code on the affected router with root privileges. 3) An authentication error in ezconfig.asp allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to obtain encrypted configuration information to a vulnerable device and, if the key is known, modify the configuration. 4) Degrade the performance of affected devices and cause the Web server to become unresponsive, potentially denying service to legitimate users.
