Federal authorities are warning the healthcare sector of a rise in cyberattacks against a backup application made by software developer Veeam. The attacks appear tied to exploitation of a high-severity vulnerability in the vendor’s software disclosed in March.
The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2023-27532, exposes encrypted credentials stored in Veeam Backup & Replication. Its exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to backup infrastructure hosts, says the Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Sector Cybersecurity Coordination Center in an alert Wednesday.
