Critical Microsoft Vulnerability Disclosed: What You Need to Know

A Microsoft vulnerability with a 7.2 CVSS score has been disclosed, requiring specific steps for exploitation. Proof of concept code is available, which gives attackers an advantage. This vulnerability affects only Windows Server 2025, limiting its impact. Users are advised to apply OS updates for Windows Server 2025 this month to mitigate risks.

SharePoint Vulnerabilities and Security Updates

SharePoint Vulnerabilities and Security Updates SharePoint is currently facing vulnerabilities that are being actively exploited, leading to guidance from Microsoft and CISA. An attack chain known as Tool Shell is taking advantage of CVEs, revealing new security risks. On-prem software poses significant threats as attackers can decrypt it. Mitigation involves applying updates and improving threat detection. Additionally, Exchange Server has a security update addressing five vulnerabilities, and users must switch from EWS to Microsoft Graph by October 2026.

New Feature - Vulnerable System Drivers Monitoring

Vulnerable system drivers continue to be a vector exploited by attackers to compromise systems. In eG Enterprise version 7.5 we added a number of periodic security checks to assist administrators proactively identify weaknesses, including vulnerable system drivers monitoring.This new capability is supported for a Windows OS, when using a VM agent for inside view monitoring and / or when monitoring an Azure Virtual Desktop session host.

Tutorial: How to Remediate Vulnerabilities with Puppet Enterprise Advanced Patching

The rate at which vulnerabilities are being exploited is on the rise. The VulnCheck company, which specializes in vulnerability intelligence, found that in Q1 2025, 28.3% of vulnerabilities were exploited within 1 day of CVE disclosure. Keeping your systems up to date is more important than ever. The reality is that many security teams are running scans and then exporting to giant spreadsheets, which are “tossed over the wall” to the Operations team with little context.

Mastering Risk-Based Vulnerability Management with Ivanti Neurons

Mastering Risk-Based Vulnerability Management with Ivanti Neurons Ivanti Neurons enhances risk-based vulnerability management by focusing on aggregation prioritization. It collects data from various sources, integrates with over 70 IT service management systems, and emphasizes the importance of contextual risk assessment. A prioritization dashboard helps security teams address critical findings, while automation through playbooks streamlines the remediation process. The content also covers scoring metrics and a knowledge base for trending vulnerabilities.

Enhancing Vulnerability Management Through Exposure Management

Exposure management improves vulnerability management by integrating various attack surfaces and enhancing asset visibility. It promotes a proactive approach to continuously manage threats and exposures. Organizations define their risk appetite for quicker decision-making on vulnerabilities. A zero day response strategy enables swift action on critical vulnerabilities. Ivanti's approach includes strong asset discovery and prioritization, utilizing threat intelligence for effective risk management.

What's the Difference Between a Vulnerability Scan and a Penetration Test?

You want to secure your systems, that's a good first step. But then you're told you need a vulnerability scan. Or maybe a pen test. Maybe both? They sound similar, but they aren't the same thing. In fact, they serve very different purposes. Understanding the difference could save your team from false confidence, wasted money, or security gaps you never saw coming. If you're trying to figure out what's right for your business, this breakdown should help. And once you're running tests, tools likepentest reporting at Cyver Core help your team stay organized and actually fix what matters.
