At Blackhat 2009, Felix Lindner (F/X) delivered a quality presentation on "Router Exploitation". This is a continuation of a theme with F/X as he has long focused on IOS vulnerabilities with the Internet Routing Protocol Attack Suite (IRPAS) being one such example.
Network World treats this information as if there has been new ground broken in the area of IOS exploitation which is not accurate. However, stating that these "attacks" are nothing new and that they require a high level of sophistication to accomplish, does not advance Network World's action line of the sky is falling and that IOS is unsafe to use.
