Beers with Talos EP 13:A Vast CCleanup, Strutting Your Stuff, and the Ex$ploit Economy

Summary: Cisco Talos released episode 13 of its Beers with Talos podcast, covering an Apache Struts zero-day being exploited, malware distributed through CCleaner, and Zerodium's exploit pricelist. The episode features Craig Williams, Joel Esler, Matt Olney and Nigel Houghton, hosted by Mitch Neff.

Key Takeaway: The episode ties three separate stories together - an exploited Apache Struts flaw, a poisoned CCleaner distribution, and Zerodium's published prices for exploits - showing that the market for working exploits and the supply chain both feed the same economy.
