iball Baton 150M Wireless router – Authentication Bypass

Any attacker can escalate his privilege to admin using this vulnerability. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker needs to navigate to the router's login page which is usually the IPV4 default gateway IP, i.e. 172.20.174.1. Then, the attacker needs to append password.cgi to the URL i.e. http://172.20.174.1/password.cgi. Right-clicking and viewing the source code will disclose the username, password and user role of the admin in the comment section. The attacker can then successfully log in using the disclosed credentials.

Mitigation:

The vendor should ensure that the login page is securely developed and that the credentials are not disclosed in the source code.
