IT Security from bleepingcomputer: “Backdoor Account Found in Popular Ship Satellite Communications System”

Backdoor Account Found in Popular Ship Satellite Communications System

A popular satellite communications (SATCOM) system installed on ships across the world is affected by two serious security flaws — a hidden backdoor account with full system privileges access and an SQL injection in the login form.

These vulnerabilities affect the AmosConnect 8 designed and sold by Stratos Global, a company acquired in 2009 by mobile satellite services firm Inmarsat Group.
