Microsoft issues an advisory for a SharePoint vulnerability

Because of the high CVSS score and recent issues at Progress with MOVEit transfer, security pros say teams should patch immediately.

Intrusions leveraging the vulnerability have facilitated the distribution of not only the GOREVERSE reverse proxy server but also the Condi malware, the Mirai botnet variant Jenx, and four other cryptocurrency mining payloads.

Such a development comes just after organizations with SonicWall Firewall Gen 5, Gen 6, and Gen 7 devices were advised by SonicWall to immediately apply issued fixes amid potential in-the-wild exploitation of the flaw, which also affects firewalls' SSLVPN functionality.
