Asus RT Router Models Are Vulnerable to Simple Hacks

[tonysamson]

Hi Merlin,

I came across this news report that certain models of Asus router may have some vulnerabilities. I'm not much of a technical person so I think I'd rather just point you to the said report:

https://wwws.nightwatchcybersecurity.com/2017/05/09/multiple-vulnerabilities-in-asus-routers/
https://bierbaumer.net/security/asuswrt/

May I know if your firmware is affected by this bug? If yes, and I know that you are somewhat busy, may we have your advice how we can mitigate this vulnerability while waiting for an updated firmware? Thanks.

best regards,

Tony
