BACKDOOR


BACKDOOR DISCOVERED IN D-LINK ROUTERS




Recently Craig Heffner, a vulnerability researcher with Tactical Network Solutions who specializes in wireless and embedded systems, found the vulnerability which is embedded in the D-Link firmware.

Should someone gain access to your router via the backdoor they could change the settings of your router and send you to fake websites which look exactly like the one you were going to (i.e. - Amazon.com). The specific browser string is "xmlset_roodkcableoj28840ybtide" which, when reversed reads "edit by joel backdoor" indicating this was intentional. Read the full article HERE.
