[FD] Cradlepoint vulnerabilities

[Todd Kelly via Fulldisclosure <fulldisclosure@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
This is a response to the Cradlepoint vulnerabilities posting by Crazy Owl on 
Nov 5th.
We appreciate that CrazyOwl brought to our attention these vulnerabilities and 
a coordinated disclosure that allowed us to address these issues and 
communicate with our customers prior to public disclosure. We take security 
very seriously, and took action as soon as we were notified. The specific steps 
we’ve taken are:

  1.  Confirmed the vulnerabilities – August 28th
  2.  Began design and code changes to correct or avoid those vulnerabilities – 
August 29th
  3.  Notified customers of the steps they needed to take to mitigate any risks 
– October 5th
  4.  Released updated software that eliminated those vulnerabilities and 
notified customers of the availability of that release – Nov 6th

As part of our response, we undertook an effort to formalize our vulnerability 
handling processes, create a vulnerability notification process, and make it 
straightforward for anyone to report a vulnerability. The results of this 
effort can be seen on the new Cradlepoint Trust page 
(https://cradlepoint.com/trust). That page contains the details of the 
vulnerabilities described by CrazyOwl, as well as other past vulnerabilities, 
any steps that customers should take to mitigate the risks of those 
vulnerabilities, as well as available software releases.

3 of the 4 vulnerabilities exploit systems that have not change their default 
passwords!

Best Regards,
Security@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
