Prevent DNS Rebind Attacks in New Firmware

[Robertoakley2]

Hi,

Almost all routers are open to this form of attack

Would it be possible to focus on router security and assure us that a default rule is put in place to prevent these sorts of attacks?

Any update on this?

Also the USB vulnerability. Does it affect Billion routers?

Our engineers have checked it and the 7800 series seems unaffected (7800dx was tested with the following link http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r188037 ... ng-attacks)

Things to do to make sure you are not attacked (better safe then sorry I would suggest) and you should be fine

1. Change the router admin password
2. Use open DNS servers eg 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220

This is the USB vulnerability

Great. thank for sharing.

No problem. It's nice to find a company like yours that cares about security and listens to its customers.

Just got a reply from Broadcom, see below

"Broadcom reference software does not include any drivers from KCodes"

So we shouldn't be effected
