Q1What is this vulnerability? (Essence + Consequences)
π¨ **Essence**: Tenda W308R v2 has a **Cookie Session Weakness**. π **Consequences**: Attackers can **modify DNS settings** without permission. This redirects user traffic to **malicious sites** (Phishing/Malware).β¦
π‘οΈ **Root Cause**: **CWE-290** (Authentication Bypass via Spoofing). The router fails to validate the **admin language cookie** properly. Weak session management allows unauthorized state changes.
Q3Who is affected? (Versions/Components)
π¦ **Affected**: **Tenda W308R** (Home Wireless Router). π **Specific Version**: **v2 V5.07.48**. Only this specific firmware version is vulnerable to this specific flaw.
Q4What can hackers do? (Privileges/Data)
π **Hacker Power**: **Unauthenticated** access! π They can change **DNS servers** via the `/goform/AdvSetDns` endpoint. Result: **Traffic redirection** to attacker-controlled servers.β¦
β‘ **Threshold**: **LOW**. π« **No Auth Required**. π« **No User Interaction Needed**. Attackers just send a crafted GET request with a fake cookie. Extremely easy to exploit remotely.
Q6Is there a public Exp? (PoC/Wild Exploitation)
π **Public Exp?**: **YES**. π **ExploitDB ID**: 44373. π **Advisory**: VulnCheck published details. Proof-of-Concept (PoC) is available for immediate testing and exploitation.
Q7How to self-check? (Features/Scanning)
π **Self-Check**: Scan for **Tenda W308R** devices. π§ͺ Test the `/goform/AdvSetDns` endpoint. πͺ Send a GET request with a manipulated **admin language cookie**. If it accepts the change, you are vulnerable!
π οΈ **Workaround**: **Isolate** the device on a separate VLAN. π« **Disable** remote management features. π **Monitor** DNS settings manually.β¦
