∗∗∗ Weitere Informationen zu Angriffen gegen ConnectWise ScreenConnect ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Sophos hat einen Überblick über Angriffe gegen ConnectWise ScreenConnect veröffentlicht. Demnach wurden bereits verschiedene Arten von Ransomware, verschiedene Information Stealer und auch unterschiedliche Remote-Access-Trojans (RATs) auf Basis der kürzlich von ConnectWise veröffentlichten Vulnerabilities in ScreenConnect deployt. Diese heterogene Bedrohungslage bedingt zur Abklärung einer bereits stattgefundenen Kompromittierung auch einen abstrahierten Blick auf etwaige eigene Installationen. Sophos beschreibt in den Kapiteln "Recommendations" und "Threat hunting information" Empfehlungen zur Vorgangsweise, selbst betriebene Instanzen auf Kompromittierungen zu untersuchen. Wir empfehlen weiterhin, etwaige eigene Installationen von ConnectWise ScreenConnect eine genaueren Untersuchung zuzuführen - auch wenn die vom Hersteller herausgegebenen Updates bereits eingespielt wurden.

∗∗∗ ProxyNotShell: Scan-Problematik der "false positives" bei Exchange (nmap, Greenbone) ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Ende September 2022 scheuchte die als ProxyNotShell bekannt gewordene Schwachstelle in Microsoft Exchange Server Administratoren auf. Die Anfang August 2022 entdeckte Schwachstelle wurde als 0-day mit Exploits angegriffen und Microsoft brauchte mehrere Versuche, die Sicherheitslücke zu schließen. Inzwischen gibt es Scanner wie nmap oder Greenbone, um Exchange Server auf diese Schwachstelle zu prüfen. Allerdings liefern diese Scanner ggf. auch Fehlalarme.

∗∗∗ Remote Access Trojan (RAT): Types, Mitigation & Removal ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Remote Access Trojans (RATs) are a serious threat capable of giving attackers control over infected systems. This malware stealthily enters systems (often disguised as legitimate software or by exploiting a vulnerability in the system) and opens backdoors for attackers to perform a wide range of malicious activities on the victim’s computer. This blog post is designed to educate readers on RATs - how they work, the risks they pose, and how to protect against them.

During research on the Ghost CMS application, the Rhino research team identified a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability which can be triggered by a malicious profile image.
