Vault 7: Projects

This publication series is about specific projects related to the Vault 7 main publication.
LAN IP address is not the default LAN IP address listed above, the device LAN IP address
can be retrieved in wireless sniffer capture data (e.g., kismet).
• Log on to the device’s web interface by opening a web browser and pointing it to
http://<Device_LAN_IP_Address>, where “<Device_LAN_IP_Address>” is the device IP
address determined from the previous step (i.e., not the literal string
“<Device_LAN_IP_Address>”). For example, if the <Device_LAN_IP_Address> is
192.168.1.1, use http://192.168.1.1.
• At the login prompt, enter the web interface password and click OK.
• Then click the “Administration” link on the upper right tab.
• Then click the “Firmware Upgrade” tab.
• Click the “Browse…” button and browse to the WRT54Gv5v6_v1[2].02.0_fw[X].bin
firmware file the client computer.
• Click the “Start to Upgrade” button.
• Watch the interface for any additional steps/error messages/information.
Reboots Automatically After Upgrade: Yes
Approximate Upgrade Time: 60 seconds
Known Issues: None
3. Wireless Upgrade Procedure
Prerequisites:
• client computer with 802.11 wireless client card (or built-in 802.11 client hardware).
• wireless encryption (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) key (if wireless security is enabled)
• device LAN IP address (referred to below as <Device_LAN_IP_Address>)
• device web interface password
Limitations: None
Firmware Filename: WRT54Gv5v6_v1[2].02.0_fw[X].bin (where [X] is an optional string)
Instructions:
• Connect/associate the wireless (802.11) client computer (with DHCP enabled) to the device.
If wireless encryption (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is enabled on the device, enter the key when
prompted. If you are not served an IP address by the device, you will need to determine the
device LAN IP address (see next step) and manually assign the wired client an IP address in
the same subnet as the device LAN IP address. For example, if the device LAN IP address is
192.168.1.1, assign yourself an IP address of 192.168.1.11.
• Determine the <Device_LAN_IP_Address>. If the device is running DHCP, the device LAN
IP address is likely the default gateway of your connected client; otherwise, if the device
LAN IP address is not the default LAN IP address listed above, the device LAN IP address
can be retrieved in wireless sniffer capture data (e.g., kismet).
• Log on to the device’s web interface by opening a web browser and pointing it to
http://<Device_LAN_IP_Address>, where “<Device_LAN_IP_Address>” is the device IP
