Description

Some Linksys Routers are vulnerable to an authenticated OS command injection.
Default credentials for the web interface are admin/admin or admin/password. Since
it is a blind os command injection vulnerability, there is no output for the
executed command when using the cmd generic payload. A ping command against a
controlled system could be used for testing purposes.
