··1 min

Cobalt Strike issued another out of band update for their Server. This came shortly after the previous out of band update to 4.7.1, which fixed the Beacon username XSS CVE-2022-39197. In this context, security intelligence provides a detailed analysis of the latter. Version 4.7.2 fixes CVE-2022-42948: 4.7.1 still failed to escape HTML tags shown in Swing components, so injected HTML could run code in the Cobalt Strike UI.
