Misfortune Cookie

ID2015

A vulnerability which uses a malformed Cookie to take control of many SOHO routers,  has been identified by Checkpoint and dubbed Misfortune Cookie with the label CVE-2014-9222

Do the latest Mac virus definitions from Sophos protect against this?

    First thing to do is find out if your router is vulnerable. If it is, see if there's a Firmware update for your router that patches this vulnerability. If there isn't one, I would get a different router that is known not to be vulnerable. Routers that can be flashed with Tomato and, I believe, DD-WRT firmware are not vulnerable.
