Security researchers and crypto experts have spent the last few days trying to figure out the details of a recently announced backdoor in NetScreen firewalls that could allow attackers to decrypt VPN traffic. It turns out those safeguards were ineffective because of additional precautions it had taken. The FBI is reportedly investigating the incident. The issue was announced by Juniper Thursday along with another vulnerability that could provide attackers with administrative access to NetScreen devices through the use of a hard-coded master password. Researchers soon found the hardcoded, but cleverly concealed, password for the administrative access backdoor.”]
