This new threat is a defect in routers that allows bad guys to exploit the UPNP function to invade a home network. Fortunately, you can turn off UPNP in your router if you know how to do it. Apple routers do not use UPNP and therefore do not have this problem.
This site will check to see if you threatened by the UPNP problems:
