New vulnerability found in Linksys routers
Researchers from the SANS Institute Internet Storm Center (ISC) issued an alert on February 12, 2014 stating that older models of the Linksys E-series router have been compromised. Early reports indicated that a self-replicating program, recently given the name TheMoon, which exploits authentication bypass vulnerabilities, causes the infection. The vulnerability is preventable with specific settings changes in the administration interface of the affected devices.
