Exploit Posted for Linksys Broadband Routers

Published: | Posted By:

The problem is with the built in web server that is used to configure the device, a fix has yet to be released.
"Many Linksys' network appliances have a remote administration and configuration interface via HTTP, either from the local network, or, if it's enabled, from any host across the internet. The implementation of the embedded HTTP server presents several different exploitable vulnerabilities, some of them allow an unauthorized user to gain control of the appliance, some let an attacker reboot it, and some are of an unknown severity."
They even go into publishing how to exploit the device, scary.
