Morphisec Threat Labs uncovers sophisticated Lua malware targeting student gamers and educational institutions. Learn how these attacks work…

The massive outage involving a faulty Falcon update is an excellent illustration of what happens when organizations neglect security fundamentals.

The Top module for PHP-Nuke versions 6.x and below 7.6 suffers from a remote SQL injection vulnerability.

A little-known threat actor tracked as GoldenJackal has been linked to a series of cyber attacks targeting embassies and governmental organizations with an aim to infiltrate air-gapped systems using two disparate bespoke toolsets. Victims included a South Asian embassy in Belarus and a European Union government (E.U.) organization, Slovak cybersecurity company ESET said. "The ultimate goal of

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain remote code execution (RCE) on the victim's machine.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted protocol message to a Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) server, which could lead to remote code execution (RCE) on the RAS server machine.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N) and the user interaction is required (UI:R). What is the target context of the remote code execution?** This attack requires an admin user on the client to connect to a malicious server, and that could allow the attacker to gain code execution on the client.

**What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could trick Windows Code Integrity Guard (CIG) into trusting the file the attacker altered to contain arbitrary content bypassing CIG integrity checks.

**here is the question** here is the answer

**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required are low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker must launch a specially crafted malicious application and wait for the victim to perform a command in a console window for the vulnerability to be exploited.
