Microsoft says remote unauthenticated attackers can trivially exploit a critical Outlook security vulnerability that also lets them bypass the Office Protected View.Unauthenticated attackers can exploit CVE-2024-21413 remotely in low-complexity attacks that don't require user interaction.
Microsoft updated a security advisory today to warn that a critical Outlook bug was exploited in attacks as a zero-day before being fixed during this month's Patch Tuesday. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit CVE-2024-21413 remotely in low-complexity attacks that don't require user interaction.
Fortinet has patched critical remote code execution vulnerabilities in FortiOS, one of which is "Potentially" being exploited in the wild. The exploitation-in-the-wild has been confirmed by CISA, by adding it to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, though details about the attacks are still undisclosed.
The only workaround recommended by Fortinet is to disable the SSL VPN. Disabling webmode won't mitigate the vulnerability, it said. Firstly, Fortinet backtracked and said these weren't vulnerabilities at all, instead explaining that they were issued in error and were duplicates of the single vulnerability mentioned in the aforementioned October advisory - CVE-2023-34992.

Volt Typhoon isn't the only Chinese spying crew infiltrating computer networks in America's energy sector and other critical organizations with the aim of wrecking equipment and causing other headaches, the US government has said. Last week, the FBI said it obtained search warrants and issued a remote kill command to wipe Volt Typhoon's botnet after the gang infected hundreds of end-of-life routers with backdoor malware to break into critical infrastructure networks.
