We observed Earth Baxia carrying out targeted attacks against APAC countries that involved advanced techniques like spear-phishing and customized malware, with data suggesting that the group operates from China.

Our research reveals two significant vulnerabilities in Microsoft Azure Private 5G Core (AP5GC). The first vulnerability (CVE-2024-20685) allows a crafted signaling message to crash the control plane, leading to potential service outages. The second (ZDI-CAN-23960) disconnects and replaces attached base stations, disrupting network operations. While these issues are implementation-specific, their exploitation is made possible by a systemic weakness: the lack of mandatory authentication procedures between base stations and packet-cores.

In this blog entry, we provide an analysis of the recent remote code execution attacks related to Progress Software’s WhatsUp Gold that possibly abused the vulnerabilities CVE-2024-6670 and CVE-2024-6671.

In this blog entry, we discuss our analysis of Earth Preta’s enhancements in their attacks by introducing new tools, malware variants and strategies to their worm-based attacks and their time-sensitive spear-phishing campaign.

Our research reveals that an unidentified threat cluster we named TIDRONE have shown significant interest in military-related industry chains, particularly in the manufacturers of drones.

Notorious Mekotio and BBTok are having a resurgence targeting Latin American users. Mekotio’s latest variant suggests the gang behind it is broadening their target, while BBTok is seen abusing MSBuild.exe to evade detection.
