Security patch for the "2wire authentication vulnerability"

Today the UNAM-CERT has released an update to the security note published back in December 2007 that warned about an authentication vulnerability in the 2wire modems.

Last week the UNAM-CERT tested the new firmware that is scheduled to be released to the TELMEX users (prodigy Infinitum) later this month. The new firmware version is 5.29.135.5 and will be deployed in the next weeks. It is important to say that the update is automatic.
