      A remote code execution vulnerability affecting Netgear home routers was disclosed in June. Netgear will not release fixes for 45 of the affected router models, identifying them as “outside the security support period.” Proof-of-concept exploit code for the stack buffer overflow vulnerability has been released.

          Only affecting out of support, consumer stuff. Still bad but... anyone running that stuff today decided that they were already okay with this.

            ug, can't recall, these do not have an option for auto updating... assuming they don't, not really good for consumers.

                WTF? You quoted the part about Ubiquiti. No UniFi or EdgeMax gear has auto updates. It is not for consumers.
