Hackers exploiting SharePoint zero-day seen targeting government agencies, say researchers

The hackers behind the initial wave of attacks exploiting a zero-day in Microsoft SharePoint servers have so far primarily targeted government organizations, according to researchers as well as news reports. Over the weekend U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA published an alert, warning that hackers were exploiting a previously unknown bug — known as a 'zero-day' — in Microsoft's enterprise data management product SharePoint. While it's still early to draw definitive conclusions, it appears that the hackers who first started abusing this flaw were targeting government organizations, according to Silas Cutler, the principal researcher at Censys, a cybersecurity firm that monitors hacking activities on the internet. 'It looks like initial exploitation was against a narrow set of targets,' Cutler told TechCrunch. 'Likely government related.' 'This is a fairly rapidly evolving case. Initial exploitation of this vulnerability was likely fairly limited in terms of targeting, but as more attackers learn to replicate exploitation, we will likely see breaches as a result of this incident,' said Cutler.

Now that the vulnerability is out there, and still not fully patched by Microsoft, it's possible other hackers that are not necessarily working for a government will join in and start abusing it, Cutler said. Cutler added that he and his colleagues are seeing between 9,000 and 10,000 vulnerable SharePoint instances accessible from the internet, but that could change. Eye Security, which first published the existence of the bug, reported seeing a similar number, saying its researchers scanned more than 8,000 SharePoint servers worldwide and found evidence of dozens of compromised servers. Given the limited number of targets and the types of targets at the beginning of the campaign, Cutler explained, it is likely that the hackers were part of a government group, commonly known as an advanced persistent threat.

Microsoft said in a blog post that the vulnerability only affects versions of SharePoint that are installed on local networks, and not the cloud versions, which means that each organization that deploys a SharePoint server needs to apply the patch, or disconnect it from the internet.

New Gold (NGD) Drops 8.5%, Enters Oversold Territory; Time to Buy?

We recently published New Gold Inc. (NYSEAmerican:NGD) is one of this week's top performers. New Gold dropped its share prices by 8.51 percent week-on-week, officially entering the oversold territory amid the lack of fresh developments to boost buying appetite. Friday's session marked the company's seventh day of decline since losing ground from the $5 level it last touched on July 7. According to a recent report from Zacks Research, New Gold Inc. (NYSEAmerican:NGD) currently carries a relative strength index reading of 28.3, below the 30 threshold, indicating that it is now in oversold conditions, considering that the company is predicted to report better-than-expected earnings in the next quarter. Aerial view of an open mine with large cranes and excavators working on the surface. Based on its historical earnings reporting dates, New Gold Inc. (NYSEAmerican:NGD) is set to announce the results of its second quarter performance between this week or before the end of July. 'So, by this measure, if a stock has gotten too far below its fair value just because of unwarranted selling pressure, investors may start looking for entry opportunities in the stock to benefit from the inevitable rebound,' Zacks said. While we acknowledge the potential of NGD as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Microsoft server hack likely single actor, thousands of firms now vulnerable, researchers say

LONDON (Reuters) -A global attack on Microsoft server software used by thousands of government agencies and businesses to share documents within organisations is likely the work of a single actor, a cybersecurity researcher said on Monday. Microsoft on Saturday issued an alert about "active attacks" on SharePoint servers used within organisations. It said that SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365, which is in the cloud, was not hit by the exploit, also known as a "zero day" because it was previously unknown to cybersecurity researchers. "Based on the consistency of the tradecraft seen across observed attacks, the campaign launched on Friday appears to be a single actor. However, it's possible that this will quickly change," Rafe Pilling, Director of Threat Intelligence at Sophos, a British cybersecurity firm. That tradecraft included the sending of the same digital payload to multiple targets, Pilling added. Microsoft said it had "provided security updates and encourages customers to install them," a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement. It was not clear who was behind the ongoing hack. The FBI said on Sunday it was aware of the attacks and was working closely with its federal and private-sector partners, but offered no other details. Britain's National Cyber Security Centre did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Washington Post said unidentified actors in the past few days had exploited a flaw to launch an attack that targeted U.S. and international agencies and businesses. According to data from Shodan, a search engine that helps to identify internet-linked equipment, over 8,000 servers online could theoretically have already been compromised by hackers. Those servers include major industrial firms, banks, auditors, healthcare companies, and several U.S. state-level and international government entities. "The SharePoint incident appears to have created a broad level of compromise across a range of servers globally," said Daniel Card of British cybersecurity consultancy, PwnDefend. "Taking an assumed breach approach is wise, and it's also important to understand that just applying the patch isn't all that is required here." Sign in to access your portfolio
