TrendMicro Node.js HTTP server listening on localhost can execute commands
>let's worry about that screw up after you get the remote code execution under control. Please confirm you understand this report.<p>This is an awful vulnerability and their immediate attempts at mitigation are sad but I feel like the Open Source community could do itself a lot of favors by avoiding this kind of tone. Not everyone working as a programmer is as good as you. Not everyone working as a programmer is any good. If you care about security here, why not concentrate on educating them. It's pretty likely the devs at any consumer hardware company aren't world-beaters; if we wanted that we would be willing to pay more than $100 for a router. It's also likely any large company has a chain of command these things have to go down through and back up again and for every link in that chain there's a greater than 0 chance the person has no idea about proper security. You may feel the security flaw is an obvious red flag that should have peoples' hair on fire but not everyone understands what you do.
