Routers manufactured by Netcore, a popular brand for networking equipment in China, have a wide-open backdoor that can be fairly easily exploited by attackers. These products are also sold under the Netis brand name outside of China. This backdoor allows cybercriminals to easily run arbitrary code on these routers, rendering it vulnerable as a security device.

Ubiquiti Networks products have the remote administration feature enabled by default and a new flaw found by researchers at SEC Consult allows malicious hackers to quickly identify potentially vulnerable devices.
There have been several reports over the past months about devices from wireless networking solutions provider Ubiquiti Networks being abused by malicious actors for DDoS attacks and malware distribution. Such attacks are in many cases possible due to unchanged default credentials and a remote management feature that is enabled by default.
