I see Spark put out a release regarding this already: http://www.newshub.co.nz/home/money/2017/10/security-vulnerability-putting-all-spark-customers-at-risk.html

 

Any word on timeframes for firmware updates to the consumer Huawei and other routers they supply as yet?

Please follow up in the existing thread. https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=66&topicid=223774

 

There is nothing suggest so far that the Spark routers (or any router supplied by any RSP) is vulnerable as the compromise is primarily client devices.
