DoS possible attack

We are aware of a possible DoS exploit as reported by Security Tracker. We are working on a fix. Please note that in order to exploit this issue, the attacker needs to be logged into the router, so the attacker would need to know the admin password of the wireless router.

It is obvious that if the attacker knows the administration password of the router, the attacker could simply reprogram the router, or disconnect it from the network, without having to do a DoS attack.

For those reasons, we believe the actual risk to be very low and basic security measures such as changing the default admin password is likely to prevent any hacker taking advantage of this exploit.
