## Technical details

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the D-Link DWR-932B router within the 'qmiweb' HTTP daemon. The component fails to properly restrict access to sensitive data when handling 'CfgType=get_homeCfg' requests. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the device to retrieve sensitive configuration information, including potentially the WPS PIN and other system settings. This issue is part of a broader set of vulnerabilities identified in the device's firmware (revB 2.02EU), which also includes hardcoded credentials and backdoors. No official patch was provided by the vendor at the time of disclosure.
