Vulnerabilities Industry Impacted: ANY, Information Technology

 

Netflix researchers worked jointly with Google and CERT Coordination Center (CERT/CC) to disclose eight Denial-of-Service (DoS) vulnerabilities existing in a number of HTTP/2 server implementations. Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities could allow a remote attacker to consume excessive system resources, potentially leading to a DoS condition.

 

Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday release includes patches for 93 vulnerabilities across multiple products, to include two “wormable” critical remote code execution vulnerabilities affecting Remote Desktop Service (RDS). At the time of writing, QuoINT has not observed a public proof-of-concept or exploitation activity against either vulnerability, however, we expect to observe soon.
