Here's a couple of reasons I think port 9000 should have a password:
- Port 9000 lets you do some things that should only be done by an authenticated administrator. Two examples are setting passwords and turning CSRF protection on/off. - The password can be set without having to enter the old password. - The CVEDetails site shows that LMS has had security holes in the past, and we have to assume it has some today. Without a password, those holes are exploitable by anyone who has access to your network. - Sonos has terrible security. I'm new here, so I don't know if LMS developers would care that better security is a competitive advantage over Sonos. Sonos can't offer it due to backwards-compatibility concerns. People who don't agree should be able to run without a password, but it should at least be an option ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rick_k's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=72191 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115292 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
