VPNFilter malware
Hi,
Does anyone know what NetGear routers are affected by the VPNFilter malware that is out in the wild?
Thanks Johnny :-)
Then there is the Netgear response:
Security Advisory for VPNFilter Malware on Some Routers | Answer | NETGEAR Support
Please follow the advice from Cisco/Talos. Seriously.
Netgear advice will really not help you. I seriously doubt they know what they are talking about. Just an upgrade will not help here if your device is already compromised. It is also laughable to see such advice when the exploit itself is unknown.
Seriously, I know who's advice to rely on.
If everyone checked and updated their routers they would not be at risk of getting this Malware, as stated by Netgear.
I was only after the routers affected, not advice on what to do, after all I run a IT Security company.... :-)
- No problem bill. It’s my first answer I get a solution 😊😝
