TITLE:
Netgear WNR2000 Information Disclosure and Security Bypass

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA36398

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/36398/

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Netgear WNR2000, which can
be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and
bypass certain security restrictions.

1) Access to cgi-bin/router-info.htm is not properly restricted to
authenticated administrators. This can be exploited to disclose
sensitive information e.g. the WPA passphrase.

2) Access to cgi-bin/NETGEAR_WNR2000.cfg is not properly restricted,
which can be exploited to download and disclose potentially sensitive
information.

3) Access to cgi-bin/upg_restore.cgi is not properly restricted to
authentication administrators, which can be exploited to change the
configuration of the device.

The vulnerabilities are reported in firmware version 1.2.0.8. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict network access to the web-based interface.
