| reply to Bob from 1973 said by Bob from 1973 :
I didn't know routers could be hacked via the WWW. Is this limited to wireless routers.
Well its not that simple. Some really baddly thought out routers had remtoe admin enabled by default as well as admin admin for the pass word. This ment that any one knowing your ip could change settigns on your router. Fairly harmless on the surface. But remember a router is kind of your first line of deffence if you got one. It acts as a very basic incoming firewall that can be hard to get past. So a attacker knowing your ip and that you have remote admin on with default pass and user name means your router does nothing to protect you. Now again still fairly harmless at this point as long as your comps have no flaws that can be used to trash your comp.
But lets say your son or daughter has a old windows 98 box they play with. It has by default port 139 open via netbios it resides on the local ip 192.168.1.101. Hacker forwards port 139 to the 101 address and starts dropping things in via admin shares (easy stuff because by defgault the entire hd was shared in win98 first ed if i recall) So hacker drops a trojan and other nasties on to the hd in start up folder. Then he just crashes the 98 computer useing some exploit or another. Now he fowards the trojans port to the proper computer and waits.
Hacker now owns that 98 ased computer that is useing the same routers as your winxp pro computer and for some reason you installed vnc on the 98 comp and your own with no pass because hey you dont need no pass word you only work this way on your lan.
So is only wifi routers vunrable? No but they are just eeasyer to get at because so many have stupid defaults. Wifi enabled routers manufactures still tend to think of local computers are no threat so no need to secure the router by default from local attacks.
Little secret ab out my laptop its a war driving laptop (i do it for fun even got a gps on it so i can pin point a signal) It can even scan channels not normally available in the us. In my area (5 mile radious) there are over 300 wide open access points almost all are full blown routers with wifi accesspoints. There are another 50 that are secured in some fasion. 300 pluss open and only 50 secured. 2wires tend to always be locked down tight as they are that way by default. Most all linksys are open to the out side 100% default set up on them. Parker visions open or closed by default varies by firm ware.
So for all purposes i am local to over 300 peoples networks when i drive around. I could probably if i was a hacker and in to it take over all of those lans with some effort of course.
Its funny that this topic that was mostly ment as a joke has actually made some serious points. -- Evil does exist and it has a face to often that face is one that should look on their child with love in their eyes.
