By Deeba Ahmed The attacks, potentially linked to Russian APT Sandworm, exploited vulnerabilities in Zyxel firewalls. This is a post from HackRead.com Read the original post: Forescout Report Uncovers New Details in Danish Energy Hack

The cyber attacks targeting the energy sector in Denmark last year may not have had the involvement of the Russia-linked Sandworm hacking group, new findings from Forescout show. The intrusions, which targeted around 22 Danish energy organizations in May 2023, occurred in two distinct waves, one which exploited a security flaw in Zyxel firewall (CVE-2023-28771) and a

Russian threat actors have been possibly linked to what's been described as the "largest cyber attack against Danish critical infrastructure," in which 22 companies associated with the operation of the country's energy sector were targeted in May 2023.  "22 simultaneous, successful cyberattacks against Danish critical infrastructure are not commonplace," Denmark's SektorCERT said [PDF].

The configuration parser fails to sanitize user-controlled input in the Zyxel ATP series firmware versions 5.10 through 5.36, USG FLEX series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36,  USG FLEX 50(W) series firmware versions 5.10 through 5.36, USG20(W)-VPN series firmware versions 5.10 through 5.36, and VPN series firmware versions 5.00 through 5.36. An unauthenticated, LAN-based attacker could leverage the vulnerability to inject some operating system (OS) commands into the device configuration data on an affected device when the cloud management mode is enabled.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has added a batch of six flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation. This comprises three vulnerabilities that Apple patched this week (CVE-2023-32434, CVE-2023-32435, and CVE-2023-32439), two flaws in VMware (CVE-2023-20867 and CVE-2023-20887), and one shortcoming impacting Zyxel
