It became apparent during the recent Code Red worm attack that some UO faculty,
students and staff who connect via DSL with Cisco 675/678 DSL routers were experiencing
a denial of service attack as a side effect of the worm's probes.
Technical details concerning this vulnerability are available online at If
you use a Cisco 675/678 DSL router, you should strongly consider upgrading the
firmware that runs on your DSL routers to the most recent version of the Cisco
Broadband Operating System (CBOS).
Details about how to do this can be found online at
