Hi, I am about to pen-test a watchguard firebox II firewall and I have never worked on one of those before. Does anyone out there know of common exploits or problems with these things?
I've never had to go up against one either, so this is probably teaching you to suck eggs here, but they're based on the Linux kernel, so that would probably be a good place to start looking for vulnerabilities. Also, the single example I've seen did some incredibly strange stuff with the addressing (i.e. the internal interface had the same IP address as the internal interface of the external router, if I remember correctly), so don't let that catch you out if that's what you encounter.
