Hi All,
The Security Advisory for VU 582384 has been updated.
Also, for more information see the link below.
I have an R7300DST which i'm guessing without trying the exploit, is probably vulnerable.
Is netgear "working on a fix" or even acknowledging this issue yet?
More importantly, is there i way i can be notified if a new firmware is released? I don't want to have to remember to check once a day.

Don't know if Netgear is working on a solution. I will assume that they are. I can find NO acknowledgment of the problem by Netgear on their website or online. ZDnet has a bulletin out on this in which they say that they contacted Netgear and did not get a response.
