Important: After installing this firmware, we strongly recommend performing a factory-default reset to activate every new security adjustment.
Security Enhancements:
– Password Policy Upgrade – Minimum 10 characters with at least 1 letter, 1 digit and 1 special symbol, and no consecutive identical characters; hardens defence against brute-force attacks.
– HTTPS on 8443 – Management interface now served over TLS by default.
– UPnP Disabled – Universal Plug and Play starts in the off state for reduced surface exposure.
– AiCloud Authentication Hardening (CWE-287) – Added layered verification.
– Authentication Logic Refactor – Removed redundant code paths for a lean sign-in flow.
– Memory Safety Guard (CWE-476) – Introduced null-reference protections across critical services.
– Enhanced IPsec Parameter Validation – The existing input checks have been hardened.
– Data Exposure Mitigation (CWE-200) – Reinforced controls on sensitive pathways.
– Detailed Audit Trails – Expanded logging within the authentication module.System Improvements:
– Connection Stability – Core algorithms refined for steadier links.
– Scheduling Accuracy – Timed tasks execute reliably under PPPoE, PPTP and L2TP WAN modes.
– Client List Maintenance – Resolved an issue that prevented offline devices from being removed from the client list.
– SFP+ Port IPTV Support – Added IPTV configuration support on the SFP+ portIn a completely sane world, madness is the only freedom (J.G.Ballard).
