Cybersecurity Chaos: Mitel and Oracle Vulnerabilities Threaten Network Security

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added three vulnerabilities, including CVE-2024-41713 and CVE-2020-2883, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. These flaws in Mitel MiCollab and Oracle WebLogic Server are actively exploited, proving once again that cybercriminals continue to rack up more hits than a Top 40 playlist.

Hot Take:

Looks like CISA is playing cybersecurity bingo, marking off those vulnerabilities faster than you can say ‘patch it up!’ With Mitel and Oracle vulnerabilities joining the ‘in-crowd’ on the notorious Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list, it’s a reminder that even in 2025, we’re still dealing with bugs that just won’t quit. How about a New Year’s resolution to squash these bugs for good?

Key Points:

  • CISA adds three vulnerabilities affecting Mitel MiCollab and Oracle WebLogic Server to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
  • The vulnerabilities involve path traversal and unauthorized access, with CVSS scores ranging from 4.4 to 9.8.
  • Mitel MiCollab vulnerabilities can be chained for greater risk, allowing remote file reading.
  • Oracle warned about potential exploitation attempts for CVE-2020-2883 as early as April 2020.
  • FCEB agencies must update by January 28, 2025, as per Binding Operational Directive 22-01.
