That’s not a zero-day… Really dislike media that waters down or misuse terminology

SharePoint is a nightmare. 😥

almost makes one forget this is a problem that Microsoft created.

The attack exploits SharePoint vulnerabilities originally disclosed at a Berlin hacking competition in May, where a Vietnamese cybersecurity researcher received a $100,000 bounty for discovering the flaws. Reuters reported that Microsoft was allegedly informed of the vulnerabilities in May but failed to fully address them in an initial July patch

And

Several cybersecurity experts compared the SharePoint campaign to the 2021 Microsoft Exchange server attacks that compromised US government systems. Former FBI Cyber Unit deputy director Cynthia Kaiser warned that hackers "already in their systems may lie dormant for extended periods before operationalizing"

Just shows in what a poor position US is now. Allies discovered it, reported it, feds didn't prepare for it and Chinese are in. Incredible incompetence except for US allies that despite US' isolationism still care.

This is what you get when you don't patch your shit after being told about it MONTHS before it was demonstrated, and MONTHS after.

When I say things like, "Use linux, the attack surface is much smaller", people say, "well, that won't last forever", to which I say, "if a trillion dollar company can drop the ball like this, I'm taking the route less travelled because society doesn't change quickly, Microsoft isn't going anywhere in my forseeable future"

More primitive anti-china propaganda. Who believes this thick nonsense ? The western Plutocracy are really firing it up ! Imagine that the fascist techlords are now suddenly 'trustworthy' good guys - and joining up with 'national security' in a little ww3-mongering propaganda campaign. I'm sure there's no cheating and the evidence would hold up - if anyone ever got to check it out oc.. tsk tsk..
