Just read an article that discusses a flaws in the DNS request system of many home routers and want to know if these routers are affected by this now in the public flaw?
The flaw
Nozomi Networks revealed a flaw in the third-party code library (uClibc and uClibc-ng) used by major vendors such as Linksys, Netgear and Axis. Hackers can exploit this vulnerability to force a router to connect to a malicious site or server by “poisoning” Domain Name System (DNS) requests.
The vulnerability is unpatched as of now.
