Holy shit, they should just call this feature "automatically add my router to a botnet". I guess the only saving grace is that the router is likely to be downloading its firmware updates over a wired connection.

so you can't take over ever router in a city unless you can find a misconfigured router or a cisco ios vuln, that's alright then
-
Oh yeah, I was not suggesting that it was not exploitable, just that the bar might be a little higher than "find a device on open WiFi". It's ridiculous either way.
-
there's also a script in cgi-bin that installs anything uploaded to it without any authentication, but i haven't verified that it actually works live since i don't have this router, and didn't want to assert a statement that might be wrong
