Asus Router Security Breach Raises Concerns
Stock Symbol and Strange Device Connections
Recently, several users have reported unusual activity on their Asus routers, including one incident where the device was seen using significant data while connected to the internet as "MSFT 50." MSFT is the stock symbol for Microsoft.
DHCP IP Address Assignment
Further investigation revealed that the router's firmware was probing DNS addresses, which could potentially lead to a security breach. The newest firmware update (38066) includes a new feature that blocks such DNS probing attempts.
Name Change and Password Reset
In another related incident, a user's PC name was changed to "MSFT 5 0" without their authorization. Despite attempts to change the name back, the issue persisted.
Firmware Update and Password Precautions
Experts recommend updating the Asus router's firmware to the latest version to mitigate any potential security risks. Additionally, users should reset their router passwords and consider changing their network SSID and password for added protection.
