Third zero-day security vulnerability in MOVEit transfer software posted on Twitter
John Hammond, a senior researcher at the cybersecurity firm Huntress, had already lost a few nights of sleep when someone he’d been messaging with privately over Twitter delivered a bombshell.
The person, who declined to provide his name but describes himself as an exploit writer, told Hammond on June 15 that he had inadvertently stumbled upon a new zero-day vulnerability in MOVEit file-transfer software — the type of flaw that doesn’t [yet] have a fix, or patch, leaving users vulnerable to hackers.
