Secret Backdoor found in their Netscreen firewall and virtual private network products..
Fun... Is it time to go and rip out equipment from any closets?

yeah this is huge - how the heck do you get "unauthorized code" in your OS? Any bets on NSA vs rogue employee?

Who knows how long this vulnerability was in place? Seems like they really wouldn't want to disclose that information or just don't know. Kind of sad for a security company.
This likens back to the Lenovo conversation. Are they malevolent or just incompetent?
