Yes that shit.

We have some of this kit in and I've tested it and it works absolutely spot on. Fortunately it's all firewalled off but it's not the sort of crap you want on your doorstep.

Can you do me a massive favour and paste the output of the following commands?

uname -a

cat /proc/cpuinfo

cat /proc/meminfo

cat /etc/passwd

If I can get a firmware image I'll take a look early next week and do an analysis follow-up.
