Hi G33Ks, --Hotel Wi-Fi Router Firmware Vulnerability (March 26, 2015) The routers used by many hotel chains for their Wi-Fi networks have a vulnerability that put guests at risk of malware infection and data theft. The flaw in the authentication firmware of InnGate routers from Singapore-based ANTlabs allows intruders to gain access to the router's root file system. The flaw could be exploited to load malware onto guests' computers, monitor and harvest data sent over the network, and allow access to the hotel's card key system. http://www.wired.com/2015/03/big-vulnerability-hotel-wi-fi-router-puts-guests-risk/ [Editor's Note (Murray): One assumes that our readers understand that wireless LANs, in general, and hotel LANs in particular, are to be treated as hostile and that that VPNs are indicated. Unfortunately, some hotels either resist VPNs or charge a premium for allowing them.]
