Threats tagged 'minus ransomware'

The Mimo intrusion set is exploiting CVE-2024-46483, a Remote Code Execution vulnerability in Craft CMS, to deploy webshells and execute malicious payloads. The attack chain includes downloading infection scripts and deploying a loader, cryptominer (XMRig), and residential proxyware (IPRoyal) for financial gain. The group uses unique identifiers such as '4l4md4r' and 'n1tr0' and has been linked to operators 'EtxArny' and 'N1tr0'. Detection can focus on unusual processes in temporary directories and kernel module changes. The campaign targets Craft CMS installations globally, with a focus on financially motivated exploitation rather than geopolitical objectives. The threat is medium severity due to the impact on confidentiality and availability, ease of exploitation via RCE, and the scope of affected web servers. Organizations using Craft CMS should prioritize patching and monitoring for indicators of compromise.
