NAME=q1
These patches and tools are presented as a proof of concept to show
that is it possible to disable the vulnerabilities that would allow
unauthorized control of the Alcatel Speed Touch Home ADSL modem.
NAME=q1a
It is the responsibility of the owner of the device to decide if the
perceived risk to their network justifies installing non-Alcatel
software into their Speed Touch Home.
NAME=q2
This software and information has NOT been extensively tested.
I accept all responsibility for any use of this software or information.
NAME=q7
Failure to follow these instructions carefully may result in the device
being damaged or becoming permanently useless.
NAME=q3
I choose to use this information, tools and install these patches at
MY own risk, and my service provider may refuse to give me any
support, regardless of whether the modified software works properly,
disrupts my service, or renders my equipment unusable.
NAME=q4
The demonstration patches are expected to work ONLY for the following
software releases:
- KHDSBA.133 Mar 16 17:52:08 GMT 2000
- KHDSAA.134 Apr 24 12:48:43 GMT 2000
NAME=q5
Applying the patches to other versions of the Alcatel software may
result in an invalid software file. Any errors during the patch
process may result in a non-working software load for the device.
NAME=q6
Installing an invalid software file into the device may cause
irreparable harm to the Alcatel device.
NAME=q8
Disabling the AAL5-based services, such as the DSL-side TFTP or SNMP
servers WILL result in my service provider's
inability to remotely update my device's software via TFTP, and MAY
affect the ability of their network management system to manage my
ADSL connection and monitor its status, resulting in my loss or
degradation of service.
NAME=q9
I understand that changing the software in my Speed Touch Home
may void my warranty or be in violation of my contractual agreement
with my service provider.
NAME=q10
I absolve SDSC and the information providers from any responsibility
for loss, damage or inconvenience, or breach of contract that may
result from my use of this information.
