Summary
The flaws affect more than 600,000 active installations. They can lead to remote code execution, administrator password resets, malware deployment, and full server compromise.
This summary is a partial excerpt — the source's own feed cuts off here. Read the full story at Cybersecuritynews for the rest.
KazaSec's take
Phishing and credential-based attacks succeed because they target people, not just infrastructure — technical controls like SPF, DKIM, and DMARC only ever close part of that gap. The rest comes down to whether a team can actually spot the fake, and whether a compromised credential can still be reused anywhere else.
