What is CVE-2008-1245?

A vulnerability in the Belkin F5D7230-4 router allows remote attackers to exploit the cgi-bin/setup_virtualserver.exe component. By sending an HTTP request with malformed POST data accompanied by a 'Connection: Keep-Alive' header, an attacker can induce a denial of service condition, leading to a temporary outage of the router's control center. This could disrupt the router's functionality, preventing legitimate users from accessing essential network features.
