To fix this, the origin server should be restricted to accept traffic only from Cloudflare IP ranges.

Real log

I'm still reading the first chapter of #AttackSurface by @pluralistic (audiobook; very well read). This security nerd is enjoying it a lot.

If someone can convince me that the protagonist, Masha, isn't at least inspired by @evacide , I will eat my shorts. (I don't recall a dedication at the start, so it may be moot).

🔐 Identity compromise and reconnaissance are precursors to deeper breaches and targeted operations. Understanding this shift informs threat modeling and operational OPSEC. The latest index data only just published and signals a shift in attacker prioritization not yet widely reported.

Thousands of public Google Cloud API endpoints are exposed — misconfigurations at scale create silent entry points. Visibility is the first line of defense. ☁️⚠️ #CloudSecurity #AttackSurface

Security Advisory Summary:
SolarWinds Serv-U 15.5.4 patches four critical vulnerabilities:
• CVE-2025-40538 – Broken access control → system admin creation + root RCE
• Two type confusion flaws → root code execution
• One IDOR vulnerability → elevated execution

Attack prerequisites:
High-privileged access required. Exploitation likely via credential compromise or chained privilege escalation.

Exposure landscape:
12K+ internet-facing instances observed (Shodan)
File transfer platforms remain ransomware-favored entry vectors

Historical context:
Prior Serv-U CVEs exploited by ransomware groups and state-aligned actors.

Immediate actions:
- Patch to 15.5.4
- Audit privileged accounts
- Review FTP/SFTP exposure
- Monitor for anomalous admin creation
