CISA Adds Actively Exploited Sierra Wireless Router Flaw — Because of Course They Bloody Did
So, guess what fresh cyber-hell we’ve been blessed with now? Yep, CISA’s waving red flags again because some poor sods with Sierra Wireless routers just found out their kit’s got more holes than a drunk intern’s firewall rules. There’s a new and *actively exploited* vulnerability that lets some clever bastard pull remote code execution (RCE) stunts right through the device. Translation: anyone with half a clue and a packet sniffer can waltz right in and do unspeakable shit with your network. Fucking brilliant.
Apparently, this isn’t some “theoretical” crap. The exploit’s out in the wild being used like free pizza at a sysadmin meeting. Sierra’s trying to mop up the mess with patches, but you just know half the world’s routers won’t get updated until next Christmas — assuming they even know what “firmware” means. Meanwhile, CISA’s adding it to their “Known Exploited Vulnerabilities” list, a.k.a. the “you’re screwed if you haven’t patched” list. The fix? Apply the bloody update and pray your network isn’t already a botnet node serving up malware tapas to the rest of the web.
So yeah, another day, another gaping security wound left to fester on the internet, while some coffee-stained admin screams into the void about budget cuts and lazy firmware updates. Welcome to IT, mate — we don’t do peace of mind here, only caffeine, rage, and panic.

Reminds me of the time some genius in accounting thought “default password” was a feature, not a warning. Took down half the bloody network and blamed IT. Same story, different router.
