Filed by CERT-Bund (BSI)1 min readRead at source ↗

Ein entfernter, anonymer Angreifer kann eine Schwachstelle in Linksys Router ausnutzen, um Administratorrechte zu erlangen, Informationen offenzulegen, einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand zu verursachen oder Dateien zu manipulieren.

Editorial Analysis

Why it matters

Consumer-grade routers in branch offices or home offices of remote workers represent a blind spot; a critical unpatched admin-takeover flaw makes Linksys devices an easy initial access vector.

What to do

Identify all Linksys routers via network scans, isolate or replace affected devices, and enforce a policy requiring enterprise-grade networking equipment.

Board brief

Unpatched consumer routers in branch offices could give attackers full administrative access to network infrastructure.
