![](https://nsfocusglobal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Microsoft1.jpg)
agosto 11, 2020
Overview
On July 14, 2020 local time, Microsoft addressed a wormable Windows DNS server vulnerability dubbed SigRed (CVE-2020-1350) in its latest monthly patch updates. Once exploited by attackers, the vulnerability could spread between vulnerable computers without user interaction, thereby probably infecting the network of the whole organization.
It is reported that the vulnerability has existed for 17 years and assigns a score of 10 (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C).
When a DNS server parses uploaded queries or responds to forwarded requests, the vulnerability could be exploited.
Check Point researchers found that sending DNS responses containing SIG records (greater than 64 KB) could cause a stack-based buffer overflow, further allowing attackers to control a server.

Overview
On July 15, 2020, Beijing time, Oracle released a Critical Patch Update (CPU) for July 2020 that fixes 443 vulnerabilities of different risk levels.
The WebLogic Server Core component is prone to four severe vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 9.8, which are assigned CVE-2020-14625, CVE-2020-14644, CVE-2020-14645, and CVE-2020-14687 respectively.
These vulnerabilities are related to T3 and IIOP protocols and allow unauthenticated attackers to execute code remotely via the Internet.
T3 and IIOP protocols are used to transmit data between WebLogic and other Java programs. The default WebLogic installation automatically enables the console, which, in turn, enables the T3 protocol by default. IIOP allows access to remote objects in the form of Java interfaces, which is enabled by default.
