/ 1 min read
🦠 Hackers target SimpleHelp software vulnerabilities to breach networks. Recent vulnerabilities in SimpleHelp Remote Monitoring and Management software, identified as CVE-2024-57726, CVE-2024-57727, and CVE-2024-57728, are being exploited by hackers to gain unauthorized access to networks. Discovered by Horizon3 researchers, these flaws allow attackers to upload and download files and escalate privileges. Following the public disclosure, Arctic Wolf reported an ongoing campaign targeting SimpleHelp servers, although it remains uncertain if the attacks directly leverage these vulnerabilities. Users are urged to upgrade to the latest software versions to mitigate risks, and those no longer using SimpleHelp for remote support are advised to uninstall it to reduce potential attack surfaces.
