Status:
* Reported to Belkin August 6th.
* To the best of my knowledge, Belkin:
* has not notified existing users of the product of the vulnerability
* has not recalled products
* is not actively encouraging users to upgrade their firmware
* has "improved" the firmware in unspecified ways since the initial
report. (direct communication)
* has not published details or release notes of the "firmware
improvements", or stated whether and when the new version started shipping on
NetCams. The PDF user manual on the Belkin site as of today still references
firmware version 2.3.0.
