HTTPSohopeless: 26,000 Telstra Cisco boxen open to device hijacking

Mark 85

Is there a workaround or isn't there?

First we read: There are no patches or workarounds available for the security blunder, which potentially affect millions of users.

Followed in the same paragraph with: One workaround would be to ensure the SSH and HTTPS configuration servers in the routers are firewalled off from harm.

I guess it's time to toss Cisco into the scrap heap...
