Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Linksys WRT350N, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
1) An error within the processing of association requests can be exploited to reboot or hang-up the device by sending a specially crafted association request containing an overly long information element.
This vulnerability is reported in firmware version 2.00.17. Other versions may also be affected.
NOTE: Only the EU version of the WRT350N is affected.
2) Input passed via the "dyndns_domain" parameter is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected device.
This vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 2.00.19.
Solution:
Update to version 2.00.19.
Provided and/or discovered by:
