It is reported that the default configuration allows a remote user to connect to the router via port 80 with a web browser and obtain the remote access password, which is apparently stored in clear text. The remote user can also change the router's configuration and can remotely upgrade the firmware.
Impact:  A remote user can obtain the administrator password, change routing tables, and upload modified firmware.
 
Solution:  No solution was available at the time of this entry.

The author of the report has provided the following recommendations:

- Change the configuration port.
- Give access privileges during initial configuration to only internal ip addresses.
- Install a firewall with appropriate rules.

 

Does anyone know how to get this P/W?
