Many of you have asked, what is this Mris botnet that some news outlets are discussing right now, and if there is any new vulnerability in RouterOS.

As far as we have seen, these attacks use the same routers that were compromised in 2018, when MikroTik RouterOS had a vulnerability, that was quickly patched.

Unfortunately, closing the vulnerability does not immediately protect these routers. If somebody got your password in 2018, just an upgrade will not help. You must also change password, re-check your firewall if it does not allow remote access to unknown parties, and look for scripts that you did not create.

We have tried to reach all users of RouterOS about this, but many of them have never been in contact with MikroTik and are not actively monitoring their devices. We are working on other solutions too.

As far as we know right now - There are no new vulnerabilities in these devices. RouterOS has been recently independently audited by several contractors.

If you do see a RouterOS device that has malicious scripts or SOCKS configuration that was not created by you, especially if this configuration APPEARED NOW, RECENTLY, WHILE RUNNING A NEW ROUTEROS RELEASE: Please contact us immediately.

Comment chipset inside and utilization? (Score 4, Interesting) 467

your not saying what chipset and what kind of usage you did.

if you are going to put a MLC drive for a gentoo distribution which is compiling 24/7, you will kill it in no time

if you got first gen micron chipset... you will have bad experience too

try again with indilinx or intel drive with SLC and come again

Comment I just made one for less than 400$ canadian! (Score 1) 101

how funny, I just bought http://www.addonics.com/products/enclosures/AE25RDESU.asp (build-in raid hardware support) and 2x 500gb seagate 5400.6 disk to make my own portable device for less than 400$ canadian, tax and shipping included, lot cheaper than the Lacie one! I will receive everything next Monday so I could do my own test and I will compare them. I never looked for pre-build one before doing my search.
