A flaw in Broadcom's Wi-Fi chipsets has existed for sixteen years and can still let attackers take control of affected routers, researchers say. The researcher claims Broadcom was told about the vulnerability in 2018, yet millions of devices may remain unpatched and exposed to strangers hijacking them over Wi-Fi.
Why now: The revelation that a known, long-lived chipset flaw still leaves millions of routers exploitable is sparking fresh security concerns.
