Russian security Web site SecurityLab is reporting that the source code for Cisco Systems Inc.'s main networking device operating system was stolen on Thursday.
According to the report, criminal hackers broke into Cisco's corporate network and stole 800MB of source code for IOS 12.3 and 12.3t (an early deployment version containing features not found in the vanilla 12.3 version). In addition, a 2.5MB sample of what is supposedly IOS code was released on an Internet Relay Chat channel as proof of the alleged theft.
