In this episode of Storm⚡️Watch, we discuss a wide range of intriguing cybersecurity topics.

A significant highlight of this episode is our discussion on the recent vulnerabilities discovered in CrushFTP. This popular file transfer software was found to have a critical remote code execution vulnerability, which has been actively exploited. The vulnerability, identified as CVE-2023-43177, allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code and access sensitive data. Despite patches being released, the software remains a target for opportunistic attacks, emphasizing the need for users to update and secure their systems promptly.

We also explore the cutting-edge realm of LLM (Large Language Model) agents with the capability to autonomously exploit and hack websites. Recent studies have shown that these agents can autonomously perform complex tasks like SQL injections and database schema extractions without prior knowledge of the vulnerabilities. This development poses new challenges and opportunities in cybersecurity, highlighting the dual-use nature of AI technologies in cyber offense and defense.

Our "Tool Time" segment introduces listeners to the CPE Guesser tools, which aid in predicting Common Platform Enumeration names, helping cybersecurity professionals streamline their vulnerability management processes.

In a lighter segment, "Shameless Self-Promotion," we celebrate GreyNoise's achievement of reaching '1337' status with their tagging system.

We also provide updates on the latest cybersecurity trends with our "Tag Roundup," discussing recent and active campaigns, and conclude with a "KEV Roundup" where we discuss the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog by CISA, providing listeners with crucial information on vulnerabilities that require immediate attention.

As we wrap up the episode, we reflect on the discussions and insights shared, encouraging our listeners to stay proactive in managing cybersecurity risks.

Forecast = The KEV drought continues well-into its second week, but a vulnerable frontal system could bring some much needed exploit rain.
