Aldrin Labs warns against security flaw
January 27th, 2011
A team of researchers on Luna revealed a “potentially catastrophic” security vulnerability in omnitools, terminal computers, datapads, and bio-amps manufactured by Luna-based Aldrin Labs, Inc. The vulnerability could allow attackers to gain full control of the equipment, view encrypted files, change settings, override a user’s commands, install spyware or malware programs, or even overload the affected equipment. The research team’s leader, Prof. Carson Lubick of Armstrong State University, explained “this is a good time to remind everyone who owns a computer, or a datapad, or an omnitool, or a bioamp, to make sure it has security software installed and regularly updated, regardless of the manufacturer you buy from.” Aldrin Labs declined repeated requests for comment, but said in a statement, “We are aware of this issue and it is under review. We do not anticipate recalling any of our products, and if necessary we will address the issue in our next software update.”
