@mswhirl - let us know if this would be reasonably easy, or quite a bit of work?
If it helps, I can send you a wireshark trace of the login process, firmware flash form post/response, and DDNS form post/responses? And some screenshots

the commands needed to root bring up dropbear and allow ssh through the firewall
user/pass: root:root with a loopback char of Y you could also just look for the success json in the response.

I have confirmed these commands can be executed manually and work through the webui on firmware

There is a working fork for VANT-9 here now: https://github.com/jameskeenan295/autoflashgui
but the commands need to be run multiple times to take effect before the ssh shell starts working. So its still a work in progress.
Did some more testing today and noticed a few interesting points about the rooting process through ddns command injection.
- on VANT-9 and VBNT-Z the commands have a large delay from when the POST is sent before they execute. I observed the delay by posting lots of curl commands and then measured the delta from timestamps from the POST and the web server logs.
- VANT-9 & VBNT-Z both execute the commands twice, for each post to the ddns form. The first executes at +11sec, and second around +23sec.
- The command length (POST'ed to the ddns form) can exceed 1024 characters (I tested various lengths using curl commands
- Easiest method is to submit all the commands in one go, with semicolons between them, and then have patience to wait at least 30sec before testing it.
- VBNT-Z uses different ddns and firmware upgrade URL's to VANT-9
Rooting process is working reliably now for both router models, using default ssh port 22.
To keep things simple for merging the fork back into mswhirls code later I've removed the http server component of the AFG fork, and updated defaults.ini with two new entries:
DNA0130 Vodafone NZ 17.4.0182-0841014
DGA0130 Vodafone NZ 17.1.7988-2461009-CRF846-V2.4.6
Recommendations are:
Untick the "split the given command on semicolons..." option in the AFG GUI (or set defaultSplitCommand=0 in defaults.ini)
Or: you must use: defaultInterCommandDelay=30
Some other minor changes to libautoflashgui.py:
Added timestamps to all the print commands.
Added additional URL's for firmware flashing VANT-9 & VBNT-Z. The flashing process doesn't work yet through AFG. I just get: 500 Internal Server Error
