A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in A-LINK WL54AP2 up to 1.4.1. Affected is some unknown functionality of the component Network Configuration. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a cross-site request forgery vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-352. The web application does not, or can not, sufficiently verify whether a well-formed, valid, consistent request was intentionally provided by the user who submitted the request. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the management interface on the A-LINK WL54AP3 and WL54AP2 access points before firmware 1.4.2-eng1 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that (1) modify the network configuration via certain parameters to goform/formWanTcpipSetup or (2) modify credentials via certain parameters to goform/formPasswordSetup.

The weakness was shared 10/31/2008 by Henri Lindberg (Website). The advisory is available at louhinetworks.fi. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2008-6823 since 06/04/2009. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. Technical details are unknown but a public exploit is available.

A public exploit has been developed by Henri Lindberg and been published immediately after the advisory. The exploit is shared for download at securityfocus.com. It is declared as highly functional.

Upgrading to version 1.2.3 eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published even before and not after the disclosure of the vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (46255) and Exploit-DB (6899). The entry 48415 is related to this item.
