Cybersecurity Chaos: CISA Flags Trio of Vulnerabilities with a Comedy of Exploits
CISA has added vulnerabilities in AMI MegaRAC, D-Link DIR-859, and Fortinet FortiOS to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. With these flaws being exploited, it’s critical for users to update or replace affected devices. Remember, in cybersecurity, ignoring updates is like leaving your door wide open and expecting burglars to wipe their feet.
Hot Take:
Looks like the digital bad guys are still finding new ways to crash our cybersecurity party. With vulnerabilities that sound like rejected superhero codenames, it’s clear that AMI MegaRAC, D-Link DIR-859, and Fortinet FortiOS have some explaining to do. If only our routers had superpowers to fend off these cyber villains, but for now, we’ll have to settle for software patches and stern warnings.
Key Points:
- Three new vulnerabilities added to CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
- CVE-2024-54085 in AMI MegaRAC has a perfect 10.0 CVSS score, making it the prom queen of security flaws.
- D-Link DIR-859 routers, now in their twilight years, are vulnerable to path traversal attacks.
- Fortinet FortiOS has a cryptographic key flaw, perfect for those nostalgic for 2019.
- Patch deadlines for Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies set for July 2025.
