, Broadcom, Deutsche Telekom, Alice Italy, Pirelli (Italy),

################
Vulnerabilities
################

This firmware have a flaw in tftp
service ,if a user have enable lan access
to tftp server and/or access from Wan ,
this router is prone vulnerable to a DoS
condition.

in the configuration file we can look for
services enabled at this line =>

---------------------------------------------------
srvCtrlList ftp="lan" http="lan" icmp="lan"
snmp="disable" ssh="disable" telnet="lan" tftp="lan"
----------------------------------------------------

in this case we have enabled tftp access from lan

oks create a new html file for example tweaking.html
(this file exists in poligon firmwares but you can use other
that´s have in yopur router in the /webs folder).

let´s try to upload it from my machine to /webs router folder

tftp -i 192.168.1.1 PUT c:\tweaking.html /webs

the file is aparently upload and the tftp server is configured
for reboot the router after upload finished.

Them i make the same test via Wan access and i have
the same result the router is reboot...

This can cause a DoS to a user , because a atacker
can force to reset all time, the victim´s router.

##############
Solution
#############

No solution was available at this time.

by default this router is configured for
denied the access from WAN connections
But this style attack can be done if any
user is inside the LAN or if enable the
access from WAN for tftp service.

Configure to disable tftp and
Grant access to device ,only to trust users.
