CISA: Microsoft SharePoint RCE flaw now actively exploited
Active exploitation of a patched SharePoint RCE flaw underscores the perennial patch-lag risk for enterprises still running on-prem collaboration stacks.
Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
CISA warned on Wednesday that attackers have begun exploiting a high-severity Microsoft SharePoint remote code execution vulnerability patched in May. [...]
Editorial Analysis
Organisations slow to patch on-prem SharePoint face immediate compromise risk; CISA's KEV listing may also trigger compliance obligations under frameworks like NIS2 that mandate timely vulnerability remediation.
Verify that the May SharePoint patch (or applicable mitigations) is deployed across all on-prem SharePoint instances and add the associated IOCs to detection rules.
A known SharePoint vulnerability is now under active attack; delayed patching exposes the company to ransomware and data-theft risk.
