Lots of routers are vulnerable to this. One of my favorite DefCon talks [1] (favorite talks in general, actually) goes over this vulnerability. Generally, I think browsers handle this as well as they can. DNS rebinding preys on a feature that's useful for being able to fall back on redundant servers if a primary fails, which is important. IIRC from the talk, browsers have implemented policies that prevent rebinding to non-public IP ranges. The talk below touches on how that's not quite sufficient for routers, because they also happen to have a valid public IP, but often don't properly filter or NAT packets from the LAN NIC, leaving them vulnerable because the packets still come from a private IP, so the source-IP-based security lets them through.
