New Attack Puts Routers, Cell Phones At Risk

A security researcher at Juniper Networks has demonstrated a new kind of attack that can run unauthorized software on a wide range of devices, including routers and cell phones.

In a demonstration set to take place at the CanSecWest security conference in Vancouver Thursday, Juniper's Barnaby Jack says he will show how this technique could be used to take control of a router and then inject malicious software on virtually every machine on the network.
