"New Blast-RADIUS Attack Breaks 30-Year-Old Protocol Used in Networks Everywhere"

One of the most widely used network protocols, Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS), is vulnerable to a newly discovered attack called "Blast-RADIUS." This complex attack enables adversaries to gain control over various environments, including industrial controllers, telecommunications services, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and more. RADIUS is supported by almost all switches, routers, access points, and Virtual Private Network (VPN) concentrators shipped in the past 20 years. This article continues to discuss the RADIUS network protocol and its vulnerability to the new Blast-RADIUS attack.
