During a generic inspection, I noticed a few unfamiliar open ports on a client.
A few minutes later I had root access on a HOT modem, enabling me to control its routing tables, tunnels, etc.
A couple more C class scans later, I realized this vulnerability affects ~80% of HOT’s home networks. These networks are managed by an Ambit Wireless Router/Cable Modem, which had “built-in” security holes.
After consulting with my trusted friend (and lawyer) Effi Fuks, we contacted HOT’s CISO, in attempt to help them fix this issue across the board.
