Comment How many devices are not upgradable? (Score 1) 42

>The best way to protect yourself from this vulnerability is to keep your device software and applications updated to the latest version

And I wonder how many such IoT devices are simply not upgradable and/or have already been abandoned by their manufacturer.

And on that note from an article: https://www.fireeye.com/blog/t...: "Mandiant is unable to determine a complete list of products and companies affected by the discovered vulnerability".

How convenient for them and their customers. How inconvenient for the end-users of such un-up-gradable and/or abandoned devices that will never ever know that they are vulnerable. Mandiant needs to be fined/sued into the ground unless and until they provide a complete list of devices. Whatever effort that takes them.
