[npnog] Mikrotik: Urgent Security Advisory

[Kijush Maharjan]

If anyone hasn't upgraded their mikrotik routeros, Please do so now.

Hello,

It has come to our attention that a rogue botnet is currently scanning
random public IP addresses to find open Winbox (8291) and WWW (80)
ports, to exploit a vulnerability in the RouterOS www server that was
patched more than a year ago (in RouterOS v6.38.5, march 2017).

Since all RouterOS devices offer free upgrades with just two clicks, we
urge you to upgrade your devices with the "Check for updates" button,
if you haven't done so within the last year.
