The persistent javascript code injection in the framLoad() function bypass all the security checks and cause a Denial of Service disabling any access to the router web interface. Access is restored with a new firmware installation. Example of a working code: //////// !WARNING! TEST AT YOUR OWN RISK /////// var loginMsg loads input from the 'welcome message form' ... function framLoad () { var status = '0'; var count = ''; var Retry = ''; var period = ''; var loginMsg = ''; var LockTime; var waitTime; if ( advancedaccountsecurity == '0' ) { loginrandom = '0'; } ... #Remediation The vulnerable form should sanitize input. ########################################
