Angler EK is exploiting Adobe Flash Vulnerability (CVE-2015-5560)

By
There is an integer overflow vulnerability in Adobe Flash Player 18.0.0.209 and earlier versions.
The vulnerability is triggered when Flash Player loads and parses an contrived MP3 file with compressed ID3 data greater than 0x2aaaaaaa bytes.
This causes an integer overflow in the buffer that allocates this data.
This results in copying a large amount of data in to a small buffer.
Not long after the disclosure of the vulnerability, Angler exploit kit has been cited to be using exploits for this vulnerability.
The issues only affects 64bit platforms.
The vulnerability is referred by CVE as CVE-2015-5560.
If you haven't patch your Security Devices, please patch them.

Have a good time.
(Be knowledgeable, pass it on then)

From the internal network, attempt to ping the management IP address. If you cannot connect to the internal interface, verify the IP configuration of the PC and make sure the cables are connected and all switches and other devices on the network are powered on a...

We are facing a lot of problem when we virtualized our Servers, 1) Routing and Switching Problem Routing become the issue when we create Virtual Switch and VLANs according to production requirement. Network Team might need some time to change on their end to meet with Server Virtualization Team changes on their end. ၂) Firewall Services Physical Firewall are difficult to manage due to the large number of rules needed to satisfy business requirements. New applications, new projects, and new networks all come with potential security requirements, which impact centralized firewall management. ၃) Load Balancing Let's say your company deploys a new physical load balancer for each tenant, resulting in increased capital expenditures. Once a tenant reaches their maximum capacity, it ca...
