Summary Chaining of three vulnerabilities allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary command with root privileges on Zyxel VPN firewall (VPN50, VPN100, VPN300, VPN500, VPN1000). Due to recent attack surface changes in Zyxel, the chain described below broke and become unusable – we have decided to disclose this even though it is no longer exploitable.

Explore the shift in phishing from Dark web to Telegram, where cybercriminals trade tools and data, and uncover Guardio's insights on countering this menace.
Volexity regularly prioritizes memory forensics when responding to incidents. This strategy improves investigative capabilities in many ways across Windows, Linux, and macOS. This blog post highlights some specific ways memory forensics played a key role in determining how two zero-day vulnerabilities were being chained together to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution in Ivanti Connect Secure VPN devices.
While most end users are well-acquainted with the dangers of traditional phishing attacks, such as those delivered via email or other media, a large proportion are likely unaware that Microsoft Teams chats could be a phishing vector. Most Teams activity is intra-organizational, but Microsoft enables External Access by default, which allows members of one organization to add users outside the organization to their Teams chats. Perhaps predictably, this feature has provided malicious actors a new avenue by which to exploit untrained or unaware users.
