   T2'12: Huawei Routers, Pin Pad Terminals Under Security Scrutiny
   http://www.securelist.com/en/blog/208193917/T2_12_Huawei_Routers_Pin_Pad_Terminals_Under_Security_Scrutiny

   "Felix FX Lindner of Recurity Labs GmbH started the day off with a close look at Huawei's security response process and (hint: it's not close to being adequate) and a technical dissection of the internals of the networking giant's VRT software that powers routers and hardware around the world.

   Lindner's presentation included an introduction of the VRT architecture, the special properties of configurations and services and a hands-on demo of how to reverse engineer the operating system.

   Coming on the heels of the U.S. government's nervousness about the use of Huawei gear, Lindner's talk was particularly timely. One thing that stood out what his statement that he was unable to pinpoint any backdoors on VRT-powered routers.

   But, as Lindner explains, the combination of easy-to-find vulnerabilities and Huawei's tenuous approach to security response means that backdoors aren't really necessary."
