I've done some preliminary analysis of this problem, and it appears
to be much worse than the earlier Sock vulnerabilities. This particular
ware ships with _three_ unpatched holes, and occasionally a fourth that
is only slightly secured.

Nevertheless, it was deeply irresponsible of y0himba to disclose this
information without first notifying the manufacturer, and allowing them
the time to investigate these holes and patch them.
