Original: Dream researchers uncovered a Chinese-nexus PHP2Shell exploit Fragnesia chain that rooted 25 firewalls and breached a US
Security researchers known as Dream say they uncovered an exploit chain, dubbed Fragnesia, that used a PHP2Shell technique to take full control of 25 firewall devices and move into a US government Active Directory environment. The intrusion is attributed to a China-linked actor, with researchers warning that firewall appliances remain a prime target for state-backed espionage campaigns.
Why now: State-backed exploitation of firewall appliances is a pressing cybersecurity concern for governments and enterprises.
