It looks like Fritz!Box rebinding protection also prevents accessing a FritzBox over a SSH port forwarding

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/08/09

For quite some times my back-up way to access a Fritz!Box when the VPN itself failed was to SSH into a system behind it and use SSH port forwarding to access the Fritz!Box.

Seems that only works for older models with older firmware versions, but newer models with newer firmware now give a rebinding protection error.

I am not sure why it does this as technically there is no [Wayback/Archive] DNS rebinding – Wikipedia.

Regrettably, I could not find a way around this from the links below.
