Hackers exploit SiteGuard WAF flaw to run commands as admins
Attackers are exploiting a vulnerability in the SiteGuard web application firewall to execute commands with administrator privileges on affected systems. The flaw allows intruders to bypass the firewall's protections and run arbitrary commands as admin. BleepingComputer reports the attacks are actively underway, and organizations running SiteGuard WAF are urged to apply patches or mitigations immediately to prevent server compromise.
Why now: Active exploitation of a widely used security product puts exposed servers at immediate risk, prompting urgent warnings to administrators.
