Researchers have discovered 8000 exposed Virtual Network Computing instances, which could put numerous global organisations at risk of remote compromise. As a matter of fact, the instances were managed by critical infrastructure (CNI) organisations, who are responsible for water treatment plants, manufacturing plants and research facilities. With disabled authentication, malicious actors have the ability to hijack certain endpoints and with it, the industrial control systems these may be connected to. This is because VNC is...

  Armis, the unified asset visibility and security platform, disclosed five critical vulnerabilities, known as TLStorm 2.0, in the implementation of TLS communications in multiple models of network switches. The vulnerabilities stem from a similar design flaw identified in the TLStorm vulnerabilities (discovered earlier this year by Armis), expanding the reach of TLStorm to millions of additional enterprise-grade network infrastructure devices.   In March 2022, Armis first disclosed TLStorm—three critical vulnerabilities in APC Smart-UPS devices....

https://vimeo.com/683449370/53eb067506   Armis, unified asset visibility and security company, announced the discovery of three zero-day vulnerabilities in APC Smart-UPS devices that can allow attackers to gain remote access. If exploited, these vulnerabilities, collectively known as TLStorm, allow threat actors to disable, disrupt, and even destroy APC Smart-UPS devices and attached assets, researchers have warned.   Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) devices provide emergency backup power for mission-critical assets in data centres, industrial facilities, hospitals, and more....

Researchers at Armis, the unified asset visibility and security platform provider, have disclosed the discovery of an authentication bypass vulnerability in Schneider Electric’s Modicon programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that can lead to remote-code-execution (RCE). The vulnerability, dubbed Modipwn, allows for a complete takeover of impacted devices by leveraging the UMAS protocol, and impacts Modicon M340, M580 and other models from the Modicon series. Millions of devices use these PLCs and are now deemed to be at...
