An issue was discovered on NETGEAR WNR1000V4 1.1.0.54 devices. Multiple actions within the web management interface (setup.cgi) are vulnerable to command injection, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands, as demonstrated by shell metacharacters in the sysDNSHost parameter.

An issue was discovered on NETGEAR WNR1000V4 1.1.0.54 devices. The web management interface (setup.cgi) has an authentication bypass and other problems that ultimately allow an attacker to remotely compromise the device from a malicious webpage. The attacker sends an FWremote.htm&todo=cfginit request without a cookie, reads the Set-Cookie header in the 401 Unauthorized response, and then repeats the FWremote.htm&todo=cfginit request with the specified cookie.
