Chinese-made Zbtlink Routers Have Backdoor, Researchers Say
🚨 At least 100,000 affected routers are deployed worldwide! According to VulnCheck’s CTO, these routers have a backdoor that contacts a specific IP address and a Chinese-registered domain every 35 seconds. This alarming discovery raises concerns about network security.
🔍 Key Findings:
- More than 20 models of a Chinese-made router are available globally with this backdoor.
- Researchers from VulnCheck warn that whoever controls these domains could potentially take over the router and access other networked devices.
💻 The backdoor, discovered by Baines, automatically communicates with a specific IP address every 35 seconds. This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to devices on the same network.
