Dear s.gottschall (at) dd-wrt (dot) com [email concealed],

According to current practices, it's considered as a security
vulnerability. The fact you must be logged in to device in browser is a
mitigation factor.

To protect routers against attacks like this either generate some kind
of non-predictable session id as a hidden field in any HTML form and
check this id or check Referer:.

sgdwc> this is no security flaw since you must be already logged in
within the webinterface of dd-wrt. otherwise this here will not work. we
already fixed this issue in our sourcetree
