🚨 Marked as known exploited on May 28th, 2025 (about 1 month ago).
Description: Meet the elite squad that’s hunting the next major cyberattack. With more than 150 years of combined research experience and expert analysis, the Tenable Research Special Operations team arms organizations with the critical and actionable intelligence necessary to proactively defend the modern attack surface. The digital battlefield is constantly shifting. It's no longer enough to just react. We need to anticipate. Massive data breaches leave consumers exposed to identity thieves, ransomware attacks cripple hospitals, and Nation State actors disrupt critical infrastructure. It's not just about vulnerable software anymore. In our hyper-connected world, from the smart devices in your home to the complex systems running our cities, everything is a potential target. The explosion of cloud services and AI is accelerating this risk, creating countless new windows for cybercriminals and hostile nations to exploit. From software and hardware vulnerabilities, to misconfigurations, compromised identities, overexposed and highly privileged environments, and publicly accessible databases, the threat landscape is everywhere, all at once. As of October 2024, over 240,000 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) have been tracked through the MITRE CVE program, including many that have significantly impacted consumers, businesses and governments. The volume has historically been too much for security teams to keep up with. Beyond the sheer increase in the volume of traditional vulnerab...

🚨 Marked as known exploited on April 23rd, 2025 (2 months ago).
Description: The 2025 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) reveals that vulnerability exploitation was present in 20% of breaches — a 34% increase year-over-year. To support the report, Tenable Research contributed enriched data on the most exploited vulnerabilities. In this blog, we analyze 17 edge-related CVEs and remediation trends across industry sectors.BackgroundSince 2008, Verizon’s annual Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) has helped organizations understand evolving cyber threats. For the 2025 edition, Tenable Research contributed enriched data on the most exploited vulnerabilities of the past year. We analyzed over 160 million data points and zeroed-in on the 17 edge device CVEs featured in the DBIR to understand their average remediation times. In this blog, we take a closer look at these vulnerabilities, revealing industry-specific trends and highlighting where patching still lags — often by months.In this year’s DBIR, vulnerabilities in Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and edge devices were particular areas of concern, accounting for 22% of the CVE-related breaches in this year’s report, almost eight times the amount of 3% found in the 2024 report.AnalysisThe 2025 DBIR found that exploitation of vulnerabilities surged to be one of the top initial access vectors for 20% of data breaches. This represents a 34% increase over last year’s report and is driven in part by the zero-day exploitation of VPN and edge device vulnerabilities – asset classes that tradit...
