there’s barely any hacking here

the guy found this through looking at the firmware but nmap -p 22 would have also found this

So like the first thing you would do to attack the device

I found an issue exactly like this on an ISP-provided router. I am nowhere near geohot but also didn’t even do as much as the guy in the article lmao

to me this is just normal to do with your devices. I think it’s interesting because it has no fw signing etc and because they left ssh, not because of figuring out how to do the patching.
