卡拉今天看了什麼<p>Linksys Velop routers send Wi-Fi passwords in plaintext to US servers</p><blockquote><a href="https://stackdiary.com/linksys-velop-routers-send-wi-fi-passwords-in-plaintext-to-us-servers/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Link</a></blockquote>📌<span> Summary:<br><br>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。<br><br></span>🎯<span> Key Points:<br><br> Testaankoop發現兩款Linksys路由器在明文中將Wi-Fi登入資訊傳送到AWS伺服器,包括Linksys Velop Pro 6E和Velop Pro 7。<br>
