From a report: The technology giant&#8217;s threat intelligence team said in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that it has observed a nation-state threat actor it calls Storm-0062 exploiting a recently disclosed critical flaw in Atlassian Confluence Data Center and Server. Microsoft has previously identified Storm-0062 as a China-based state-sponsored hacker. <\/p>\n<p>Microsoft said it observed in-the-wild abuse of the maximum rated 10.0 vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2023-22515, since September 14, some three weeks before Atlassian&#8217;s public disclosure on October 4. A bug is considered a zero-day when the vendor &#8212; in this case Atlassian &#8212; has zero time to fix the bug before it is exploited. Atlassian updated its advisory this week to confirm it has &#8220;evidence to suggest that a known nation-state actor&#8221; is exploiting the bug, which the company says could allow a remote attacker to create unauthorized administrator accounts to access Confluence servers. Atlassian&#8217;s Confluence is a widely popular collaborative wiki system used by corporations around the world to organize and share work.<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class=\"share_submission\" style=\"position:relative\">\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=State-backed+Hackers+Are+Exploiting+New+'Critical'+Atlassian+Zero-Day+Bug%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fit.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F10%2F11%2F1843211%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/twitter_icon_large-409.png\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fit.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F10%2F11%2F1843211%2Fstate-backed-hackers-are-exploiting-new-critical-atlassian-zero-day-bug%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/facebook_icon_large-205.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/it.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/10\/11\/1843211\/state-backed-hackers-are-exploiting-new-critical-atlassian-zero-day-bug?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\">Read more of this story<\/a> at Slashdot.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Slashdot &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/it.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/10\/11\/1843211\/state-backed-hackers-are-exploiting-new-critical-atlassian-zero-day-bug?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">State-backed Hackers Are Exploiting New &#8216;Critical&#8217; Atlassian Zero-Day Bug<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft says Chinese state-backed hackers are exploiting a &#8220;critical&#8221;-rated zero-day vulnerability in Atlassian software to break into customer systems.
