For some reason my router has a telnet-based command line control panel.

    Of course that's a feature. BUT for god sake change the default password.

    @drRoss I did change it. Obviously.

    @T-Hammer I use Termux.

    Aaand found a security problem...

    I ran "ps" and saw that it ran "sh -c ps". So then I ran "ps ; sh" and it worked. I really hope the telnet thing isn't internet-facing.

    Edit: every user has uid 0. Eek.

    The Last time I tried to use it the router crashed and rebooted, though :/

    From a marketing standpoint, I believe it is preferable to call it what it is, so that it is apparent what this dashboard is for. These people, for example, dubbed them. mmcgbl
