FTC Sues D-Link Citing Security Flaws in Routers, Cameras

The FTC sued D‑Link, alleging its consumer routers and IP cameras contained multiple high‑risk security flaws — hard‑coded credentials, command injection, an exposed update-signing private key, and plaintext-stored credentials — that could allow remote attackers to spy on users, hijack home networks, or recruit devices into botnets; the FTC also alleges D‑Link misrepresented product security and seeks a permanent injunction.
