Description: Jimmy Scott has reported a vulnerability in SMC broadband routers, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions.
SMC implements session handling per IP basis only. This can be exploited to access the administrator account directly if the administrator's IP can be spoofed and is currently logged in.
Example:
http://[ip]/setup_status.htm
http://[ip]/status.HTM (SMC7008ABR)
Successful exploitation can potentially reveal the administrator's password.
