Pulse Secure on Monday released a patch for the zero-day vulnerability that hackers used to access the networks of U.S. defense contractors and other government agencies worldwide.
In a blog posted April 20, FireEye said Chinese-based UNC2630 leveraged CVE-2021-22893 to gain access to Pulse Secure VPN equiptment and move laterally. A second threat actor, UNC2717, was also identified exploiting Pulse Secure VPN equipment, but FireEye could not connect them to UNC2630. Â
