So Hopelessly Broken - The Implications of Pervasive Vulnerabilities in SOHO Routers

via YouTube

Overview

Explore the critical security vulnerabilities in SOHO routers in this comprehensive DerbyCon 3.0 conference talk. Delve into the implications of pervasive vulnerabilities, examining various SOHO router products and the associated security risks. Learn about testing methodologies, including information gathering, scanning, and enumeration techniques. Analyze web applications, servers, and conduct static code analysis and fuzzing. Gain insights into reverse engineering tools and techniques, exploit development, and testing for cross-site request forgery and command injection. Discover directory traversal attacks, buffer overflows, and MIPS architecture specifics. Witness live demonstrations of vulnerabilities and exploits, including an ASUS RT-AC66U ROP chain and MIPS shellcode exploit.
