CERT and Cisco have issued a warning about a vulnerability in the Cisco IOS starting at version 11.3 and affecting all later versions. If your Cisco equipment is HTTP enabled and you're not using TACACS+ or RADIUS for authentication it is vulnerable to complete takeover. The hack is very simple. Please read the Cisco warning and/or the CERT advisory for further information. The warnings were released yesterday. Happy Hacker Stopping. Larry Diffey
