another clickbait title: "Are mikrotik devices affected..." .. they are not as they do not use affected equipment

Exploit code has been released for a critical vulnerability affecting networking devices with Realtek’s RTL819x system on a chip (SoC), which are estimated to be in the millions.

The flaw is identified as CVE-2022-27255 and a remote attacker could exploit it to compromise vulnerable devices from various original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), ranging from routers and access points to signal repeaters.

Mikrotik doesn’t use the Realtek’s RTL819x chipset.

Nice.. :smiley:

No matter if

simply

MikroTik do not build firmware around the Realtek eCOS SDK.
