Cisco Hands Root Access To The World

Just another Tuesday in IT, where ten Silicon One-based Nexus 9000 switches foolishly bound exposed ports 43210 and 43211 directly to unrestricted IP addresses. Any passer-by without credentials could casually run root commands or reboot the hardware for amusement, because basic port hygiene is apparently too much to ask. We must now scramble to deploy Cisco's addressed CVE-2026-20212 fix to safeguard networks before total chaos ensues. Same story, different day, and my coffee is already cold.
