#241 - Intel Chat:Apache ActiveMQ, Elastic EDR vulnerability, kernel-level EDR killers & PipeMagic
Description
In this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we discuss some intel being shared in the LimaCharlie community.
• Attackers are actively exploiting CVE-2023-46604, a remote code execution vulnerability in Apache ActiveMQ first disclosed in October 2023, that is used to compromise cloud-hosted Linux servers.
• AshES Cybersecurity has publicly disclosed a critical zero-day vulnerability in Elastic’s Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) platform, specifically in the Microsoft-signed kernel driver elastic-endpoint-driver.sys.
• At least a dozen ransomware groups are now deploying kernel-level EDR killers - tools designed specifically to disable endpoint detection and response solutions - as part of their malware arsenal.
• Microsoft has released an in-depth technical analysis of PipeMagic, a modular backdoor linked to ransomware operations carried out by Storm-2460, a financially motivated threat group associated with RansomEXX.
