Chinese Manufactured Routers Have Backdoor

Chinese Manufactured Routers Have Backdoor A line of routers from a China-based manufacturer has a serious flaw that could allow a hacker to monitor someone’s Internet traffic, according to research from Trend Micro. The routers are sold under the Netcore brand name in China and Netis outside of the country, wrote Tim Yeh a threat researcher. The Netcore and Netis routers have an open UDP port listening at port 53413, which can be accessed from the Internet. The password needed to open up this backdoor is hardcoded into the router’s firmware. Using the backdoor, hackers could upload or download hostile code and even modify the settings on vulnerable routers in order to to monitor a person’s Internet traffic as part of a so-called man-in-the-middle (MitM) attack. By attempting MitM attack, a potential attacker could intercept users’ internet communication, steal sensitive information and even hijack sessions. The researchers scanned the Internet and had indicated that millions of devices worldwide are potentially vulnerable. The researcher wrote: “Using ZMap to scan vulnerable routers, we found more than two million IP addresses with the open UDP port,” Yeh wrote in a blog post. “Almost all of these routers are in China, with much smaller numbers in other countries, including but not limited to South Korea, Taiwan, Israel, and the United States.” Exploiting this flaw is not too difficult, as a simple port scan can reveal the open UDP ports to anyone using such an online tool.

How to Create a Password Protected Folder without any Extra Software

How to Create a Password Protected Folder without any Extra Software Before you get started you need to create a folder that will house your password protected folder, this is just an ordinary folder and can be located anywhere and named anything. image62 Open the document, now paste the following code into the contents of the document: cls @ECHO OFF title Folder Private if EXIST "HTG Locker" goto UNLOCK if NOT EXIST Private goto MDLOCKER :CONFIRM echo Are you sure you want to lock the folder(Y/N) set/p "cho=>" if %cho%==Y goto LOCK if %cho%==y goto LOCK if %cho%==n goto END if %cho%==N goto END echo Invalid choice. goto CONFIRM :LOCK ren Private "HTG Locker" attrib +h +s "HTG Locker" echo Folder locked goto End :UNLOCK echo Enter password to unlock folder set/p "pass=>" if NOT %pass%== PASSWORD_GOES_HERE goto FAIL attrib -h -s "HTG Locker" ren "HTG Locker" Private echo Folder Unlocked successfully goto End :FAIL echo Invalid password goto end :MDLOCKER md Private echo Private created successfully goto End :End Change the PASSWORD_GOES_HERE text to the password you want to set. Now go ahead and save the file as locker.bat. Now run your batch file by double clicking on it–the first time you run it, it will create a folder called Private. This is where you can store all your secret things. When you have finished adding all your stuff to the Private folder, run locker.bat again.
