It states: "MicroTik Cloud Core routers, mainly used by enterprises, may be affected if they run versions 1016, 1036 or 1072 of the MicroTik RouterOS.

Those are model numbers, not firmware versions. He lifted that from this Krebs artical (https://krebsonsecurity.com/2018/05/fbi-kindly-reboot-your-r...) which is also wrong.

All Mikrotik products running less than version 6.38.5 are vulnerable: https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=134776

It makes me wonder what else is wrong....
