Chinese Hackers Unleash Double Trouble on Ivanti CSA: A Cyber Comedy of Errors
Chinese threat actors have taken hacking to a new level, employing two advanced exploit chains to breach Ivanti Cloud Service Appliances (CSA). Armed with vulnerabilities like CVE-2024-8963 and friends, they pulled off remote code execution, credential theft, and webshell deployment. The US government is on high alert, advising immediate security updates.

Hot Take:
Looks like the Chinese threat actors have been spending too much time watching Mission: Impossible. With their advanced exploit chains, they’re turning Ivanti CSA into their very own high-tech playground. Perhaps it’s time to update those outdated versions before they start playing hopscotch on your servers!
