Subject: Posting on RISKS - hacked NAS's
Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2016 22:33:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57E842C7.9000302@youngman.org.uk> (raw)
Just for info. I know it's not really quite this list, but I can't quite
make out what is affected.
I get the impression this is referring to NAS systems, so it's outside
our remit. But to me, "Seagate NAS" is actually a raid-suitable disk
drive, so it makes me wonder whether it's hacked drive firmware...
unlikely but eminently possible ...
Cheers,
Wol

Subject: "Seagate NAS hack should scare us all" (Roger A. Grimes)
Roger A. Grimes, InfoWorld, 20 Sep 2016
An under-the-radar news story proves that computers are far from the only
devices prey to attack
http://www.infoworld.com/article/3121338/security/seagate-nas-hack-should-scare-us-all.html
opening text:
No fewer than 70 percent of Internet-connected Seagate NAS hard drives have
been compromised by a single malware program. That's a pretty startling
figure. Security vendor Sophos says the bitcoin-mining malware Miner-C is
the culprit.
[At peak, seek to tweak the weak link. This reeks of leaks that peek as
well. PGN]
