TITLE:
Linksys WRT160N Cross-Site Request Forgery Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA34625

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34625/

DESCRIPTION:
Russ McRee has reported a vulnerability in Linksys WRT160N, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery
attacks.

The administrative web interface allows users to perform certain
actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to
verify the requests. This can be exploited to perform administrative
actions when a logged in administrator is tricked into visiting a
malicious web page.

The vulnerability is reported in firmware version 1.02.2. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not browse untrusted web sites while being logged in to the
administrative web interface.
