PROBLEM
Axel Hammer found following. Allied Telesyn AT-AR220e, Firmware
1.08a RC14, combined DSL/Cable-Router, NAT, Firewall, HTML-Config.
This Device is equipped with the function 'Virtual Server', which
is a portmapper WAN -> LAN. The 'Virtual Server'-functionality
can be disabled completely and single portmappings can be disabled
each, too.
If a portmapping is set-up, e.g.
Status; Global Port; Internal Port; Internal IP; Protocol
disabled; 80; 80; 192.168.0.1; TCP
AND the Virtual-Server-Feature is enabled, there is no check for
the enabled/disabled setup of each of the single portmappings.
They still remain active.
It is possible to gain access to mapped services, which may be
left unsecured.
SOLUTION
Unused mappings should be deleted from the list-of-portmappings.
If there are no used mappings at all, the Virtual-Server-feature
should be disabled.
