[aklug] Re: Misfortune cookie

This is the direct link to vulnerable hardware:
http://mis.fortunecook.ie/misfortune-cookie-suspected-vulnerable.pdf

and a quick glance-over shows it to be common off-the-shelf equipment.

I can only speak informally, obviously, but as far as I'm aware,
[GCI] doesn't provide the type of equipment that this article refers to.

None of our HW vendors (cablemodem) seem to be listed in that PDF.

Not so fast, Mike -- I haven't assimilated the last batch of bad news yet!

Anyone from an ISP or other equipment provider want to make a statement here?
