"Coupled with the absence of meaningful post-exploitation activity, we don't yet have any threat actors attributed to the attacks. "At this point, the vulnerability has been public for a relatively short amount of time," Galinkin noted. are mandated to apply patches by August 19, 2022, to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks. Note that the use of Blueprints will require development knowledge to implement. Users can customize pre-existing Blueprints, or create their own Blueprints. With the flaw now added to the catalog, Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) in the U.S. While Confluence does not have out-of-the-box capabilities to create forms, users can use Templates and Blueprints to emulate the look and feel of a form on a Confluence page. "The good news is that the vulnerability is in the Questions for Confluence app and not in Confluence itself, which reduces the attack surface significantly." "Exploitation efforts at this point do not seem to be very widespread, though we expect that to change," Erick Galinkin, principal AI researcher at Rapid7, told The Hacker News.
Depending on the page restrictions and the information a company has in Confluence, successful exploitation of the shortcoming could lead to the disclosure of sensitive information.Īlthough the bug was addressed by the Australian software company last week in versions 2.7.38 and 3.0.5, it has since come under active exploitation, cybersecurity firm Rapid7 disclosed this week.
