Rule Release for Today, Thursday July 22nd, 2010
Summary: Cisco Talos released rules on Thursday, July 22, 2010, covering two main vulnerabilities: the Microsoft Windows Shell shortcut vulnerability (CVE-2010-2568) and the Siemens Simatic WinCC and PCS 7 SCADA vulnerability (CVE-2010-2772). The post states that both vulnerabilities are being actively used by the Stuxnet worm.
What's compelling: Stuxnet was exploiting both a Windows shortcut flaw and a Siemens SCADA flaw at once, so a single worm had a path into industrial control systems that defenders had treated as separate problems.
