Microsoft has had its share of flaws to deal with over a wide range of products. So it is no surprise when we read that there is another “flaw” making the rounds that is related to an older flaw that someone exposed about a year ago. The first flaw was a laughable encryption scheme that was intended to protect the username and password when using PEAP-MSCHAPv2 authentication. In this flaw someone was able to quickly break the encryption and access the credentials used to log on. This flaw does require access to the device that the user was connecting to (RAIDUS server, Firewall, etc.) so it is a little harder to pull off. Now it looks like there is a further flaw that will remove the need to compromise other equipment.

There is an old (very old) adage that says: if you connect it to the internet, it can be hacked. A more accurate one would be; if you can interact with it in any way, it can be hacked. We have seen this time and time again as the idea of remote administration and monitoring has taken off like a rocket. So far everything from Bluetooth keyboards to Wi-Fi accessible pace makers have been laid out to exploit. The makers of these products were only thinking of making these easier to use and keep track of. They never imagined that someone would use that same connection for malicious purposes (or simply did not bother to prepare for that). When many of these products were developed the idea of hacking on the level we see it was the stuff of fantasy so some of their failures can be excused (as long as they fix the issues). However, what cannot be forgiven is the continued lack of forethought when it comes to newer connected devices; especially something like a smart toilet.
