The Linksys Group Inc.'s BEFSR41 EtherFast Cable/DSL Router with 4-Port Switch is vulnerable to a remote DoS attack that requires the attacker to do nothing more than access a specific script on the router's remote management interface. The vulnerability affects all of the routers with firmware versions earlier than 1.42.7. http://eletters1.ziffdavis.com/cgi-bin10/flo?y=eSkd0EXgz40DUm0ry20Ac -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
