Huawei Technologies said on Thursday it was verifying claims that its routers contained critical vulnerabilities. Security researchers disclosed alleged problems last weekend. The vulnerabilities were found in the firmware of Huawei AR18 and AR29 series routers, which once exploited through the flaws, could be taken over via the Internet. The company added it uses “rigorous security strategies and policies” to protect the networks of its customers. One of the researchers described the security of the Huawei devices he analyzed as “the worst ever”, and said there were bound to be more security flaws.”]
