"Cybersecurity researchers claim every network router at risk of secretly leaking data"

Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) have discovered the possibility that any common network router could covertly leak sensitive information, including passwords and company data. They have demonstrated this possibility through the use of the LED light on a network router and their own form of malware to secretly forward data, overrule the router, and control the LED. This article further discusses the demonstration performed by researchers.
