Google-Präsenz verbessern? Vorsicht vor Abzocker-Unternehmen!
Unternehmen wenden sich derzeit an uns und berichten von unseriösen Anbietern, die sich als Kooperationspartner von Google ausgeben. Das Angebot: Sie helfen dabei, den Unternehmensauftritt bei Google zu verbessern, ein angebotenes Beratungsgespräch soll nach dem Gespräch bezahlt werden und koste einmalig bis zu 80 Euro. Doch weit gefehlt: Erfahrungsberichten zufolge tappt man hier in eine Abo-Falle, die nur schwer zu kündigen ist.

Magnet Goblin Targets Publicly Facing Servers Using 1-Day Vulnerabilities
Magnet Goblin is a financially motivated threat actor that quickly adopts and leverages 1-day vulnerabilities in public-facing services as an initial infection vector. At least in one case of Ivanti Connect Secure VPN (CVE-2024-21887), the exploit entered the group-s arsenal as fast as within 1 day after a POC for it was published. Campaigns that we were able to attribute to this actor targeted Ivanti, Magento, Qlink Sense and possibly Apache ActiveMQ.

pgAdmin (<=8.3) Path Traversal in Session Handling Leads to Unsafe Deserialization and Remote Code Execution (RCE)
-pgAdmin is the most popular and feature rich Open Source administration and development platform for PostgreSQL, the most advanced Open Source database in the world. [..] If the server is running on Windows, an unauthenticated attacker can load and deserialize remote pickle objects and gain code execution. If the server is running on POSIX/Linux, an authenticated attacker can upload pickle objects, deserialize them and gain code execution.
