Enterprise VPN Zero-Day Hits Multiple Sectors
A pre-auth remote code execution bug in a widely deployed VPN appliance is under active exploitation. Internet-facing gateways were compromised in hours, with follow-on credential theft.
## What happened Attackers exploited a memory corruption flaw reachable without authentication. Public scanning showed broad exposure and rapid exploitation. ## Why this matters beyond one victim Shared infrastructure vendors mean one bug crosses industries quickly. Attack chains now pivot from perimeter devices into identity systems. ## Technical notes Observed payloads dropped webshells and harvested local config secrets, then attempted LDAP and SSO token replay.
