ReadyNAS RN214 Joomla cyber attack

Hello Community,

 

Is anyone getting attacked by ReadyNAS OS with this signature CVE-2015-8562 ?

 

Since I added ReadyNAS RN214 to my home network I'm getting this attacks every 10 ~mins.

Although the attack comes from ReadyNAS with a Joomla signature, I don't have Joomla installed on ReadyNAS.

    I haven't seen it.

     

    Do you have ReadyCloud installed on the PC?  ReadyDrop was replaced by ReadyCloud.

      Yes, I have ReadyCLOUD.

      Maybe this is a false positive by my NortonAntivirus... I have a support ticket open with Netgear waiting for their inputs.
