Business recommendation:
------------------------
SEC Consult recommends not to use this device until a thorough security review
has been performed by security professionals and all identified issues have
been resolved.
Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
1. Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
The vulnerability exists in the "httpd" binary in the ASUS DSL-N55U firmware.
If the web path is longer than 50 characters, it will redirect a user to
the cloud_sync.asp page with the web path as a value of a GET parameter.
Due to the lack of input validation, an attacker can insert malicious JavaScript
code to be executed under a victim's browser context.
No authentication is required.
2. Remote DHCP Information Disclosure
An unauthenticated attacker can gain access to DHCP information including
the hostname and private IP addresses of the local machines connected to the
router from the WAN IP address.
Proof of concept:
-----------------
