Backdoors Found in Barracuda Networks Gear
http://j.mp/VlErdW (Krebs)
"A broad variety of the latest firewall, spam filter and VPN appliances
sold by Campbell, Calif. based Barracuda Networks Inc. contain
undocumented backdoor accounts, the company disclosed today. Worse
still, while the backdoor accounts are apparently set up so that they
would only be accessible from Internet addresses assigned to
Barracuda, they are in fact accessible to potentially hundreds of
other companies and network owners."
