  • WRT54G V4 cannot disseminate Slingbox off-line after update firmware for v4.21.1

    Before the firmware update, I was streaming Slingbox and Orb inside and outside the network without port forwarding.  After the update of the firmware, I can only connect to Slingbox and ORB server from inside the network.  V4.21.1 addressed a UPnP vulnerability and it can prevent me from connecting to devices outside the network, but I don't know what to change in the configuration that allows access from the outside.  Can anyone help?

    Execution of the Slingbox "Installation Internet viewing" corrected the problem with the Slingbox and restart the server Orb corrected the problem of the Orb.

  • Router WNDR3700v2 vulnerability

    So I had a WNDR3700v2 with the latest firmware for the moment and I noticed that there's a vulnerability in it but no updates are made to this. Is it possible to avoid the vulnerability if I uses a wifi password very strong and pass the settings router with disabling remote management, readyshare, dlna, upnp and other things and do the router be just a simple router with a firewall and no fancy features. Why I ask, it's the router was a lot of work after 5 years, which is much longer than the average router these days. If this is not the case, the netgear wndr4300v2 there any known vulnerabilitys which has not been set.

    It is best to keep your router updated to ensure safety.

    Here are the latest release Notes for WNDR3700v2 and WNDR4300v2 for your reference.

  • Is the opinion of 12/02/2015 to install the fix really vulnerability in firefox?

    After the closure of 3 text boxes released firefox indicating is 93%, at risk and needs to be reinstalled with the correction code. The Web site noted was strange and seems not related to Mozilla. I chose not to run his link. There is a vulnerability in need of closure?

    No, it's not Mozilla or the Firefox web bowser. Scammers use the popularity of Firefox and try to mislead the less experienced users of Firefox and or Windows to download an .exe to infect Windows.

    Updates of Firefox on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux are are in the browser Firefox itself or download on https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all

    Mozilla does not .exe patches or do they host updates on randomly selected sites outside of *. Mozilla.org

  • My DT Java Plug - in 8.0.660.18 is supposed to be vulnerable, and I don't know how to upgrade. Should I turn it off?

    I had problems with Firefox crashing lately, and it may have something to do with one of the plugins. So I checked the plugins that I have, and I noticed that I have Java DT 8.0.660.18 installed, but there is a warning that the plugin can be vulnerable. I have Windows XP, (yes I know, stupid Microsoft can't not help XP), and so to get the latest version of this will be difficult, if not impossible. Should I change the setting in my Firefox "never activate?

    I believe that we are at the root of the problem. For some time my Firefox browser was slow, has been suspended for a bit and crashed 5 times in 3 minutes Thursday. Now that I've refreshed Firefox, even with Trend Micro inserted in, my browser runs faster than ever before. Has collapsed yet, no snap and now I know what the problem could be seized becomes a problem. Thank you, FredMcD and the team!

  • Silverlight 5.1.40728.0 reported by Firefox as vulnerable 41.0.1 / needs updated. From where? Why?

    Silverlight 5.1.40728.0 reported by 41.0.1 as vulnerable Firefox / "update now" when I check my plug-ins are up-to-date. By clicking on the button takes me to the MS Silverlight download site, but all I get from following instructions is same version of Silverlight and Firefox same result. What is vulnerability? Why Silverlight can't be updated? I am sure to leave Silverlight as it is or should I turn it off? Or what? Why declare as vulnerable and who need to update if there is no recourse?

    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

    • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.

    You can check if there is an update for your display driver graphic card and search for hardware acceleration of related issues.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • Plugin Status Check reports Java last x 64 as vulnerable

    Last night, I have updated all the plugins to display the green buttons "up to date" on the Web site to check the Plugin situation. However, this morning, he pointed out that the Java plugin is vulnerable (note: not "stale"). y at - it publicized a new vulnerability revealed in Java in the last hours?

    There is no new version of Java from now, as later Java 8 update 45, released April 14, 2015. It is important to note that I first installed the 32-bit version of Java to get the status 'up-to-date' green, but later also installed the 64-bit version of Java (like I need instead for my 64-bit Eclipse). Would he have the vulnerability indicator trigger? Is there a vulnerability in Java 64 bit which is not present in the 32-bit Setup?

    I've seen a few similar questions about Flash plugin, but I have already disabled Flash completely. It is about Java.

    I'm on Firefox for Windows 32-bit. I am running Windows 7.

    A version of Firefox 32 bit will only consider Java 32 bits version.

    Note that Java is thus affected.

  • Firefox is declining as being vulnerable even though I installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. Why is this?

    I have the latest version of Adobe Flash installed 18.0.0.203 - this is confirmed on the adobe site and the Firefox Add-ons page. Yet I continue to get the message saying that Flash Player is vulnerable...

    All versions of the Flash plugin was disabled by Mozilla because of a security breach disclosed in the plugin that Adobe needs to address via a security update.

  • Adobe Flash Player 18.0.0.203 still vulnerable

    Sorry to bring bad news but Flash Player is still vulnerable. On July 10, 2015 a second zero-day was discovered in data leakage from the hacking team.
    External links:
    Security Advisory-Adobe APSA15-04: https://helpx.adobe.com/security/products/flash-player/apsa15-04.html
    Blog Malwarebytes unzipped: https://blog.malwarebytes.org/exploits-2/2015/07/new-hacking-team-flash-player-0day-uncovered/
    It seems that it was already integrated in exploit kits according to Kafeine MalwareDontNeedCofee and Malwarebytes.

    Thank you for the update.

    If there is no update available from Adobe that solves this problem, it is likely that the latest version of the Flash plugin would be blocked (the Java Deployment Toolkit seems to be a rare exception).

    For its own purposes, limiting Flash for reliable sources and media 'necessary' is a good idea. You can do this by using the click-to-play function as follows:

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Search 'Shockwave Flash' and always change 'enable' to 'ask to activate '.

    When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    If you do not see an immediate need to run Flash, you can simply ignore the notification.

    Unfortunately, because the Flash can be embedded to other sites, this is not a complete solution. Even if you trust SiteA, if it is compromised with the media of SiteB, embedded journalists will play.

    You can do the more granular click-to-play service, rather than to trust all media on a site-by-site basis, using an extension. For example: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/click-to-play-per-element/

    I noticed that you linked to an article on Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit, which has a free version that should help to protect against this exploit. Have you tried? This much affect browser performance?

  • Shockwave Flash says Firefox is vulnerable and requires the update when it has been updated.

    After opening a page, Firefox gave a warning that "Shockwave Flash is vulnerable and needs to be updated".

  • flash player mode disable how vulnerable protected?

    Lastest 38 FF now allows me to easily turn off protected mode FP which seems to heal my FP quite common crashes. The question I have is how vulnerable will I be if protected mode is disabled? I use FF with FP disabled for quite a while now with little inconvenience because almost everyone is using HTML. I'd appreciate comments everyone. Thank you

    It is obviously not safer, but in the real world (as long as you keep flash, your operating system, Firefox and your anti-virus software updated) it will not have a significant impact on your security. just stay smart online and use your common sense, do not install or click on things that look too good to be true.

    You have Avast? as the analysis of https in Avast can actually make your less secure connection in some cases and cause problems of this kind. So if you have Avast disable https analysis in Avast. Some other antivirus scanners may have an effect on this also.
