135 million Arris modems vulnerable to reboot attacks | #CyberSecurity 

135 million Arris modems vulnerable to reboot attacks | #CyberSecurity  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.grahamcluley.com - April 8, 2016 1:00 PM
135 million Arris modems are at risk of being knocked offline for between three and 30 minutes, because of an easily patchable vulnerability.

Security researcher David Longenecker explains that the SB6141 model Arris (formerly Motorola) SURFboard modem, one of the most popular cable modems in the world with 135 million currently in production, is vulnerable to unauthenticated reboot attacks due to two flaws.

The first issue is quite basic: the user interface for the modem has absolutely no authentication set up. Astonishingly, this allows a local attacker to look up 192.168.100.1 and access the administration web interface without entering a username and password.

Hackers are now targeting your router

Hackers are now targeting your router | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.usatoday.com - March 21, 2014 5:10 PM

It's time for a router emergency call to 911. You knew about hackers stealing our credit cards from retailers, the NSA spying on anyone who picked up a cellphone or writes an email, and ad trackers watching our every move and purchase.


Hang on, we've got a string of recent reports of router vulnerabilities. Backdoors have been found in NetGear and Linksys routers , two of the biggest sellers. A host of other brand names including D-Link, Micronet, Tenda and others have also been the subject of mass attacks that let hackers hijack your browser, produce fake search results, and download malware into all the devices connected to your network.


Yes, it's possible and it's happening. Take a deep breath. Here's what you need to do to secure your router and save money too.
