Hot Take:

Looks like SharePoint’s got more holes than Swiss cheese, and hackers are having a field day turning IT departments into gouda hunters! Who knew document sharing could lead to such a wild ride? Microsoft might want to consider adding “Bug Swatter” to the next version of SharePoint before hackers convert their server farms into amusement parks.

  • This flaw allows unauthorized code execution via deserialization of untrusted data.
  • Microsoft is working on a patch but recommends AMSI integration and Microsoft Defender in the meantime.
  • Attacks are targeting on-premises SharePoint servers, not SharePoint Online.
