| 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 & Windows 8 Enterprise 47,728 posts Texas | LAN Attack Can Put Some Samsung TVs in Endless Restart Loop Quote: A vulnerability in the firmware of several network-enabled Samsung TV models and possibly Blu-ray players allows potential attackers to put the vulnerable devices into an endless restart loop that requires the intervention of a technician to terminate, according to independent security researcher Luigi Auriemma. Auriemma discovered the flaw on April 19 and published a proof-of-concept exploit on his website. The bug is located in the code that allows Samsung devices to be controlled over the local area network (LAN) through special iOS or Android applications.
