Tenda FH303/A300 Firmware V5.07.68_EN Cookie Session Weakness Remote DNS Change PoC
Once modified, systems use foreign DNS servers, which are usually set up by cybercriminals. Users with vulnerable systems or devices who try to access certain sites are instead redirected to possibly malicious sites. Modifying systems' DNS settings allows cybercriminals to perform malicious activities like steering unknowing users to bad sites, replacing ads on legitimate sites, controlling and redirecting network traffic, and pushing additional malware.
Mitigation:
Users should ensure that their systems are running the latest version of the firmware and that they have enabled the latest security patches.
