Threat Source newsletter for Sept. 24, 2020
Summary: Cisco Talos reported that exploit code for the Microsoft Netlogon vulnerability known as Zerologon, which scored a maximum 10.0 on CVSS when Microsoft disclosed it in August, began surfacing on GitHub. The newsletter also described Emotet returning after a few months of quiet to team with Trickbot on a phishing campaign using Word lures that ask users to enable macros to download the Trickbot loader.
What you should know: Zerologon carries a maximum 10.0 severity score and Microsoft's fix is only partially delivered, with a second portion still pending while public proof-of-concept code now circulates on GitHub.
