We've previously, publicly and privately, analysed vulnerabilities in various ‘Backup and Replication’ platforms, including those offered by Veeam and NAKIVO - both of which have struggled to avoid scrutiny and in some cases, even opting to patch issues silently.
However, we’re glad to see that sense prevails - kudos to NAKIVO for acknowledging CVE-2024-48248 from our previous research and publicly responding to a new XXE vulnerability (CVE-2025-32406).
Backup and Replication solutions have become prime targets for ransomware operators for logical reasons — Veeam, for instance, has already seen widespread exploitation in the wild.
GreyNoise observed a 9X spike in suspicious scanning activity targeting Ivanti Connect Secure or Ivanti Pulse Secure VPN systems. More than 230 unique IPs probed ICS/IPS endpoints. This surge may indicate coordinated reconnaissance and possible preparation for future exploitation.
Combined with AI, polymorphic phishing emails have become highly sophisticated, creating more personalized and evasive messages that result in higher attack success rates.

In a previous article of JPCERT/CC Eyes, we reported on SPAWNCHIMERA malware, which infects the target after exploiting the vulnerability in Ivanti Connect Secure. However, this is not the only malware observed in recent attacks. This time, we focus on another malware DslogdRAT and a web shell that were installed by exploiting a zero-day vulnerability at that time, CVE-2025-0282, during attacks against organizations in Japan around December 2024.

Like any garden, the digital landscape experiences the emergence of unexpected blooms. Among the helpful flora of browser and application extensions, some appear with intentions less than pure. These deceptive ones, often born from a fleeting desire for illicit gain or mischievous disruption, may possess a certain transient beauty in their ingenuity. They arrive, sometimes subtly flawed in their execution, yet are driven by an aspiration to infiltrate our digital lives, to harvest our data, or to simply sow chaos.

The Sysdig Threat Research Team (TRT) has discovered CVE-2025-32955, a now-patched vulnerability in Harden-Runner, one of the most popular GitHub Action CI/CD security tools. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to bypass Harden-Runner’s disable-sudo security mechanism, effectively evading detection within the continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline under certain conditions. To mitigate this risk, users are strongly advised to update to the latest version.
The CVE has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.0.
