I was thinking more about exploiting the firmware whilst connected in the router.

I don't know if this is possible, but if you do manage to find an exploit like a buffer overflow, you can potentially get into the memory of the router and see anything that is on RAM... that is what I am worried about, not really getting the WPA info but actually accessing the main memory unit.
