Hot Take:

CrushFTP is in a bit of a pickle, folks! While they’re busy playing the blame game over a recently patched vulnerability, cyber baddies are making hay while the sun shines. Perhaps CrushFTP should focus less on CVE naming semantics and more on patching those pesky vulnerabilities before they become the hottest trend in the cybercrime world.

Key Points:

  • CrushFTP vulnerability allows unauthorized access through specially crafted HTTP(S) requests.
  • Vulnerability patches are available in CrushFTP versions 11.3.1+ and 10.8.4+.
  • VulnCheck and CrushFTP have differing CVE identifiers, causing a naming kerfuffle.
  • Shadowserver spotted around 1,800 unpatched instances, with exploitation attempts already underway.
  • CrushFTP blames security firms for publicizing the vulnerability too quickly.
