The updates are out, and you'd better install them as soon as possible before bots start exploiting them and . Instructions on how to apply the updates are included in the company websites.

Let's see what happened:

About 17 Netgear routers have remote bypass ς μέσω URL. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι κάθε κακόβουλος χρήστης ή τα κακόβουλα μπορούν να αποκτήσουν πρόσβαση στη its configuration ς σου.

The most important thing is that anyone can access without having a password. How;

By simply adding the characters & genie = 1 at the end of the URL.

So bad news for any portal that has remote access enabled, as anyone on the internet can take advantage of the vulnerability and take ownership of the router. This can change DNS settings, redirect browsers to malicious sites and more.
