Microsoft claims that Chinese swindlers used the SolarWinds method to destroy it

SolarWinds Dangers continue to be fired by foreign experts a few months after the US intelligence company was hit by a cyberattack. On Tuesday, Microsoft also said a group working outside China was using a zero-day approach to attack the SolarWinds program. Used properly, an error in an IT company’s Serv-U program allows fraudsters to do things like set up and make incorrect payments or view and modify data, Microsoft said in blog post.

As part of its investigation, Microsoft said it had seen a group rob in US military research and development agencies and programs. The company has selected the player as DEV-0322 based on its role as an anonymous “developed group”. Microsoft claims that it uses the code in a manner that does not warrant the identity of the perpetrator or victim. A group working in China is using commercial VPN channels as well as hacked routers to hack, Microsoft said. Affected parties were notified and assisted in responding, the company said.

SolarWinds confirmed over the weekend that it was notified by Microsoft of security risks in its Serv-U software. The error was related to the transfer of files stored by FTP security, which has been in the process.

SolarWinds became known one night in December after becoming the head of a selling arms which has affected its 18,000 customers, including nine US government agencies. The U.S. spy released a joint statement in January citing it Russia as the most likely source of the hack. Next month, Reuters He also alleged that the Chinese suspects used another error in the SolarWinds program to help crack down on US government computers last year. Recent threats are inconsistent with the so-called Sunburst attack on the chain, says SolarWinds.
