Three easy steps to world domination:
Pwn a bunch of SOHO routers. ??? Profit
I can help you with Step 1. In this talk, I'll describe several 0-day vulnerabilities in Netgear wireless routers. I'll show you how to exploit an unexposed buffer overflow using nothing but a SQL injection and your bare hands. Additionally, I'll show how to use the same SQL injection to extract arbitrary files from the file systems of the wifi routers. This presentation guides the audience through the vulnerability discovery and exploitation process, concluding with a live demonstration. In the course of describing several vulnerabilities, I present effective investigation and exploitation techniques of interest to anyone analyzing SOHO routers and other embedded devices.
