Yes we are seeing it in Saskatchewan Canada as well. We checked with our ISP and they said that they were not 
vulnerable to this attack. It looks like the routers need to have the webserver active on them for this to work.

Subject: Cisco vulnerability scanning increase




We recently picked up a spike in TCP 80 scanning against one of our netblocks.

Looking at the payload, it appears to be a Cisco vulnerability scanner.

 /level/16/exec/-///pwd

Numerous random source IP's across various netblocks, makes it appear to be bot related potentially. Anyone else seeing 
this type of activity?
