“A variety of firewall, VPN, and spam filtering gear sold by Barracuda Networks contains undocumented backdoor accounts that allow people to remotely log in and access sensitive information, researchers with an Austrian security firm have warned. The SSH, or secure shell, backdoor is hardcoded into ‘multiple Barracuda Networks products’ and can be used to gain shell access to vulnerable appliances, according to an advisory published Thursday by SEC Consult Vulnerability Lab. A timestamp and version relevant for the code that enables the backdoor bears a date from 2003, suggesting it may have existed in the Barracuda appliances for a decade.”
