Hack ISP Routers: Reverse Engineering & Secret Upgrades, Dheeraj Reddy Jonnalagadda, #FOSSASIA 2026

ISP-provided routers often control our entire digital lives, yet many are insecure black boxes running outdated firmware. In this talk, learn how to take control of a locked-down consumer router, uncover hidden security flaws, and repurpose it into a powerful network defense tool.

This session covers two practical hacks: first, the forensic process of analyzing router firmware, exploring binary structures, and discovering hardcoded backdoor credentials to gain root access. Second, transforming the compromised router into a network-wide ad blocker and security device.

Perfect for cybersecurity enthusiasts, IoT hackers, and privacy-conscious users, this talk offers a practical roadmap for reverse engineering routers and understanding the hidden risks inside everyday network appliances.

FOSSASIA Summit 2026 held in Bangkok, is Asia’s leading Open Source tech conference featuring sessions on #AI, #Cloud, #DevOps, #Open Hardware, #Security, #Web #Mobile Technologies, #Web3, and #Databases. Learn more: http://summit.fossasia.org

The Secret World of Security Embargoes and Dirty Frag

This clip from SUDO Show 76 dives into the secret world of security embargoes through the real‑time chaos around the Dirty Frag Linux vulnerability. Neal explains how coordinated disclosure is supposed to work, what an embargo actually means, and how a broken embargo plus a live proof‑of‑concept exploit can force distributions into a frantic, all‑hands‑on‑deck patch sprint.
