okay now start .......

Pre-requirements and tools 

All the tools used in this project are easily available in the internet

Hardware Requirements

Laptop: A laptop with the internet connectively with at list 2-3 Ram is required, as I have

used Virtual Workstation for the demonstration. So RAM is consumed as well at least 10

GB hard will be enough for setup.

Router:A TP-link is a company, which mostly manufacture the home based DSL and

ADSL router. TP-LINK is a global provider of networking products, available in over 100

countries with tens of millions of customers. T TP-LINK is a global provider of

SOHO&SMB networking products and the World's No.1 provider of WLAN products, with

products available in over 120 countries to tens of millions customers. Committed to

intensive R&D, efficient production and strict quality management, TP-LINK continues to

provide award-winning networking products in Wireless, ADSL, Routers, Switches, IP

Cameras, Power line Adapters, Print Servers, Media Converters and Network Adapters

for Global end-users. Here router model TD-W8901D with the firmware 6.0.0 is used in

this project for the demonstration proposed.

Browser: A browser is a software application used to locate, retrieve and display content on the

World Wide Web, including Web pages, images, video and other files. As a client/server model,

the browser is the client run on a computer that contacts the Web server and requests information.

The Web server sends the information back to the Web browser, which displays the results on

the computer or other Internet-enabled device that supports a browser.

Mozilla is a free software community best known for producing the Firefox web browser. The

Mozilla community uses, develops, spreads and supports Mozilla products and works to advance

the goals of the Open Source Web application.Any browser will work here I have used Firefox to

access the router.

Demonstration

Procedure for exploiting security vulnerability

Step 1: Try to login to the router with form browser.

As we know deafault user name and password is admin admin, but sometimes user change the password but username is same “admin”. So how  we access the router without username and password. If it is your own router or modam then you will reset it , but what happen if it is your victum’s modam.

So here is the method, using this method you can get the password.

Now just type the ip in your browser of router or modam and place “/rom-0” after your router or modam’s ip . Eg: in case “192.168.1.1/rom-0”

As you can see in pic. Then you got rom file and save it your computer anywhere.

Rom file  is a file where our password of router or modam is saved. Now by using reverse engineering we get the password from rom file in plain text. But it is not easy. So here is Russian software by using we decrypt the password from rom file.

Now just open this link In your browser and download the software,, link is http://www.hakim.ws/huawei/rom-0/ 

After download the software just open it and click on the button which is highlighted in picture

After click this button you have to open the rom file which is you download and save that in your computer, now just select your rom file and click on open button ,,as you can see in the picture.

When you click on open button then after that in just  1-3 seconds your router or modam  password shows to you in  plain text.

Thanks if you like please share
