that someone has build custom malware to run in Microtik routers and designed to get at the sysadmin accessing it. Microtik have released patches.

It's been patched for more than a year already in MikroTik RouterOS.

It was fixed well over a year ago and only affected users using Winbox as the infected .dll was downloaded from the router when you ran Winbox.
