Grey Noise

On May 8, GreyNoise observed a highly coordinated reconnaissance campaign launched by 251 malicious IP addresses, all geolocated to Japan and hosted by Amazon AWS. The infrastructure and execution suggest centralized planning.

Two critical Ivanti zero-days (CVE-2025-4427 and CVE-2025-4428) are now being actively exploited after a surge in scanning activity last month. When chained together, these vulnerabilities enable unauthenticated remote code execution on Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile systems.

Edge vulnerabilities are a critical and growing threat. The 2025 DBIR reveals an eightfold surge in exploitation, yet many remain unpatched despite immediate risk.

GreyNoise observed a significant increase in crawling activity targeting Git configuration files. While the crawling itself is reconnaissance, successful discovery of exposed Git configuration files can lead to exposure of internal codebases, developer workflows, and potentially sensitive credentials.

GreyNoise observed a 9X spike in suspicious scanning activity targeting Ivanti Connect Secure or Ivanti Pulse Secure VPN systems. More than 230 unique IPs probed ICS/IPS endpoints. This surge may indicate coordinated reconnaissance and possible preparation for future exploitation. 

Attackers from every corner of the internet are exploiting a uniquely dangerous class of cyber flaws: resurgent vulnerabilities. GreyNoise’s latest research breaks down these vulnerabilities — how they behave, why they’re dangerous, and what defenders and policymakers need to know to stay ahead.

GreyNoise has observed a significant spike in exploitation attempts against TVT NVMS9000 DVRs. This information disclosure vulnerability can be used to gain administrative control over affected systems. 

On March 28, GreyNoise observed a significant spike in activity targeting multiple edge technologies, including SonicWall, Zoho, Zyxel, F5, Linksys, and Ivanti systems. While some of these technologies are edge systems, others are primarily internal management tools. 

Over the last 30 days, nearly 24,000 unique IP addresses have attempted to access these portals. The pattern suggests a coordinated effort to probe network defenses and identify exposed or vulnerable systems, potentially as a precursor to targeted exploitation. 

GreyNoise is bringing awareness to in-the-wild activity against several known vulnerabilities (CVE-2020-8515, CVE-2021-20123, and CVE-2021-20124) in DrayTek devices.

Attackers are actively exploiting Apache Tomcat servers by leveraging CVE-2025-24813, a newly disclosed vulnerability that, if successfully exploited, could enable remote code execution (RCE). GreyNoise has identified multiple IPs engaging in this activity across multiple regions. 

GreyNoise has identified a notable resurgence of in-the-wild activity targeting three ServiceNow vulnerabilities: "Resurgence of in-the-wild Activity targeting critical ServiceNow vulns. Overwhelming majority of traffic hitting Israel.

GreyNoise observed 400+ IPs exploiting multiple SSRF vulnerabilities across various platforms, with recent activity concentrated in Israel and the Netherlands.

‍GreyNoise data confirms that exploitation of CVE-2024-4577 extends far beyond initial reports. Attack attempts have been observed across multiple regions, with notable spikes in the United States, Singapore, Japan, and other countries throughout January 2025.

Silk Typhoon-linked CVEs are under active exploitation. GreyNoise observed 90+ threat IPs exploiting them in the past 24 hours, following Microsoft’s report on the group's evolving tactics.

On March 3, 2025, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency added five vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, confirming their exploitation in the wild.

A newly discovered global cyber threat is rapidly expanding, infecting tens of thousands of internet-connected devices to launch powerful cyberattacks. Nokia Deepfield’s Emergency Response Team (ERT) has identified a new botnet, tracked as Eleven11bot, which they estimated has compromised over 30,000 devices, primarily security cameras and network video recorders (NVRs). 

Attackers are automating exploitation at scale, targeting both new and old vulnerabilities — some before appearing in KEV. Our latest report breaks down which CVEs were exploited most in 2024, how ransomware groups are leveraging mass exploitation, and why real-time intelligence is critical.

Ransomware group Black Basta’s chat logs were leaked, revealing 62 mentioned CVEs (Source: VulnCheck). GreyNoise identified 23 of these CVEs as actively exploited, with some targeted in the last 24 hours. Notably, CVE-2023-6875 is being exploited despite not appearing in CISA’s KEV catalog — reinforcing the need for real-time intelligence beyond static lists.
