Αν χρησιμοποιείτε κάποιο router της Netgear στο σπίτι σας ή κάπου αλλού, μάλλον ήρθε η ώρα να αναβαθμίσετε το firmware… H κατασκευάστρια εταιρεία μόλις κυκλοφόρησε ένα τσουνάμι από patches για πάρα πολλά models which constructs and are affected.
Vulnerabilities were identified by Martin Rakhmanov Trustwave, The researcher spent more than a year chasing vulnerabilities in Netgear's firmware.
The updates are out, and you'd better install them as soon as possible before bots start exploiting them and botnets. 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 ID cardς μέσω URL. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι κάθε κακόβουλος χρήστης ή τα κακόβουλα programs μπορούν να αποκτήσουν πρόσβαση στη σελίδα its configuration deviceς 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.
Do not wait: Directly upgrade your Netgear firmware.
