D-Link DWL-G700AP httpd DoS
author: l0om
page: www.excluded.org
product: D-Link DWL-G700AP
firmware: tested on v2.00 and the latest v2.01
The DWL-G700AP is an accesspoint from D-Link and the only way to configure
it is the http service which is managed from a httpd called "CAMEO". This
webserver is very easy to DoS because all you have to do is send the AP the
following string: "GET \n\n". I really have been thinking how bad you have
to code to shutdown the whole service with one request which is handeld by
one child process. my guess is that the parent httpd tries to log the request
and runs into a "segmentation fault" while reading the "GET", "POST" or
whatever request with no filename.
PoC exploit follows just for phun and no profit.
best wishes everyone and have phun!

exploit tested on firmware: v2.00 and the latest v2.01
remote DoS exploit for the CAMEO-httpd which is running on the
D-Link
Accesspoint DWL-G700AP. After executing this the accesspoint
cannot be
configured anymore because the only way to administrate the AP
is the
administration with your browser. you have to reboot the box
to get the
httpd started again.
have phun!
