“How an organization approaches remediation and eviction of an incident is critically important to a successful response effort. Over the years, we have seen organizations struggle with identifying the right steps to take and the correct sequencing of actions to properly evict advanced adversaries from their enterprises,” said Jermaine Roebuck, Associate Director for Threat Hunting, CISA. “This tool will level the playing field by making it easier for IT staff and cyber defenders to coordinate efforts and achieve a successful eviction. I encourage public and private sector organizations to incorporate this capability into their incident response plans.”

It’s well known that the window between CVE disclosure and active exploitation has narrowed. But what happens before a CVE is even disclosed? In our latest research “Early Warning Signals: When Attacker Behavior Precedes New Vulnerabilities,” GreyNoise analyzed hundreds of spikes in malicious activity — scanning, brute forcing, exploit attempts, and more — targeting edge technologies. We discovered a consistent and actionable trend: in the vast majority of cases, these spikes were followed by the disclosure of a new CVE affecting the same technology within six weeks.

∗∗∗ CVE-2025-26397 - ZDI-25-654: SolarWinds TFTP Server Deserialization of Untrusted Data Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of SolarWinds TFTP Server. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the internal TFTP communications endpoint, which listens on the localhost interface on TCP port 8099 by default. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM.

∗∗∗ From Help Desk to Hypervisor: Defending Your VMware vSphere Estate from UNC3944 ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
In mid 2025, Google Threat Intelligence Group (GITG) identified a sophisticated and aggressive cyber campaign targeting multiple industries, including retail, airline, and insurance. This was the work of UNC3944, a financially motivated threat group that has exhibited overlaps with public reporting of "0ktapus," "Octo Tempest," and "Scattered Spider." Following public alerts from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the group's targeting became clear. GTIG observed that the group was suspected of turning its ransomware and extortion operations to the U.S. retail sector. The campaign soon broadened further, with airline and transportation organizations in North America having also become targets.
