Part 10 of Broken, Abandoned, and Forgotten Code is up! In this part we hunt for a UART connection inside the Netgear R6200 router.
When we start developing our minimized bootstrap firmware as well as the custom, stage 2 firmware in later parts, it will take many iterations to get it right. During that process it will be essential to recover a bricked router from a non-functional firmware update. The UART connection makes it possible to restore a working firmware. Here's a link to part 10: http://shadow-file.blogspot.com/2015/07/abandoned-part-10.html If you missed my post to Full Disclosure where I introduced the series, here's that: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2015/May/44 As always I welcome feedback via email or Twitter. I'm @zcutlip. I hope you enjoy it!
