A cybersecurity firm detected millions of cyber-attacks on Microsoft apps and services in 2022.
Fortinet noted that Microsoft Exchange receives a staggering 10,000 average attacks on a daily basis.
“This vulnerability is a privilege escalation vulnerability in Microsoft Windows, exploitable using a [maliciously] crafted file,” the cybersecurity firm said. “Given its global presence and [year-round], many endpoints are presumed to be still vulnerable. The malware will exploit a stack buffer overflow vulnerability to run malicious shellcode which in turn will allow the malware to attempt to download the next malicious payload,” it said.Last July, Microsoft Teams, a communication platform, went down globally. The outage affected more than 3,000 users in different countries, including the Philippines.
