Hi, I found a bug in ZyXEL Prestige 650 HW Routers with Http Remote Administration active.
Prestige 623/652 are also vulnerable which is very sad, have you contacted Zyxel about it? If so, how patient have you been? This is really annoying because it is really easy to "exploit" and without a working firmware I will have to disable the Web Management on all my remote clients because it is "usuallly" on by default.

Exploting this bug, the attacker can reset the router configurantion.

The "/rpFWUpload.html" is not password protected. To exploit this bug you only need write that:

http://[Router ip]/rpFWUpload.html

and click the Reset button.


Sorry if this post is misspelling... but I'm from Spain and my english level is poor...
