How one #GPL #lawsuit accidentally created the homelab router that changed #networking forever
source: howtogeek.com/a-legal-accident…
It didn't take long for a group to take this source #code, inspect it, and start to modify it. This was #OpenWrt and it changed everything. By loading modified #firmware on the little Linksys, it was possible to unlock or add features that #Linksys did not intend for that model or price bracket.

@dashdsrdash @kim @FLOX_advocate It is usually not regular computers or servers that are a problem. It is all the embedded devices that are the issue. I have an old crappy 8 port #dlink smartswitch, a #vonage #linksys VOIP device, an #epson eco-tank printer, and a #roku premiere from them that is holding me back from moving #ipv6 .

Linksys Velop routers send Wi-Fi passwords in plaintext to US servers
Link
📌 Summary:
根據Testaankoop的調查，發現兩款Linksys路由器正在以明文的方式將Wi-Fi登入資訊傳送到位於美國的亞馬遜(AWS)伺服器，包括Linksys Velop Pro 6E和Velop Pro 7這兩款mesh路由器。這個漏洞讓攻擊者能夠攔截傳輸過程中的Wi-Fi網路名稱(SSID)和密碼，從而進行竊聽和惡意攻擊。儘管Testaankoop多次向Linksys提出警告，但該公司並未採取有效措施，直到Testaankoop再次聯絡後才進行了更新，但仍未解決問題。這個問題可能源於Linksys固件中使用的第三方軟體，但無論如何，這種漏洞仍然存在，即使是最新的Linksys 7 Pro，都無法避免。研究人員建議消費者不要購買這些路由器，因為存在嚴重的網路入侵和資料損失的風險。
