• SANS Stormcast Friday, March 27th: Sitecore Exploited; Blasting Past Webp; Splunk and Firefox Vulnerabilities

  Sitecore "thumbnailsaccesstoken" Deserialization Scans (and some new reports) CVE-2025-27218 Our honeypots detected a deserialization attack against the CMS Sitecore using a thumnailaccesstoken header. The underlying vulnerability was patched in January, and security firm Searchlight Cyber revealed details about this vulnerability a couple of weeks ago. https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Sitecore%20%22thumbnailsaccesstoken%22%20Deserialization%20Scans%20%28and%20some%20new%20reports%29%20CVE-2025-27218/31806 Blasting Past Webp Google s Project Zero revealed details how the NSO BLASTPASS exploit took advantage of a Webp image parsing vulnerability in iOS. This zero-click attack was employed in targeted attack back in 2023 and Apple patched the underlying vulnerability in September 2023. But this is the first byte by byte description showing how the attack worked. https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2025/03/blasting-past-webp.html Splunk Vulnerabilities Splunk patched about a dozen of vulnerabilities. None of them are rated critical, but a vulnerability rated High allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary code. https://advisory.splunk.com/ Firefox 0-day Patched Mozilla patched a sandbox escape vulnerability that is already being exploited. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2025-19/

• SANS Stormcast Thursday Mar 27th: Classifying Malware with ML; Malicious NPM Packages; Google Chrome 0-day

  Leveraging CNNs and Entropy-Based Feature Selection to Identify Potential Malware Artifacts of Interest This diary explores a novel methodology for classifying malware by integrating entropy-driven feature selection with a specialized Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Motivated by the increasing obfuscation tactics used by modern malware authors, we will focus on capturing high-entropy segments within files, regions most likely to harbor malicious functionality, and feeding these distinct byte patterns into our model. https://isc.sans.edu/diary/%5BGuest%20Diary%5D%20Leveraging%20CNNs%20and%20Entropy-Based%20Feature%20Selection%20to%20Identify%20Potential%20Malware%20Artifacts%20of%20Interest/31790 Malware found on npm infecting local package with reverse shell Researchers at Reversinglabs found two malicious NPM packages, ethers-provider2, and ethers-providerz that patch the well known (and not malicious) ethers package to add a reverse shell and downloader. https://www.reversinglabs.com/blog/malicious-npm-patch-delivers-reverse-shell Google Patched Google Chrome 0-day Google patched a vulnerability in Chrome that was already exploited in attacks against media and educational organizations in Russia https://chromereleases.googleblog.com/2025/03/stable-channel-update-for-desktop_25.html

  Privacy Aware Bots A botnet is using privacy as well as CSRF prevention headers to better blend in with normal browsers. However, in the process they may make it actually easier to spot them. https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Privacy%20Aware%20Bots/31796 Critical Ingress Nightmare Vulnerability ingress-nginx fixed four new vulnerabilities, one of which may lead to a Kubernetes cluster compromise. Note that at the time I am making this live, not all of the URLs below are available yet, but I hope they will be available shortly after publishing this podcast https://www.darkreading.com/application-security/critical-ingressnightmare-vulns-kubernetes-environments https://www.wiz.io/blog/ingress-nginx-kubernetes-vulnerabilities https://kubernetes.io/blog/ FBI Warns of File Converter Scams File converters may include malicious ad ons. Be careful where you get your software from. https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/denver/news/fbi-denver-warns-of-online-file-converter-scam VSCode Extension Includes Ransomware https://x.com/ReversingLabs/status/1902355043065500145
