Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Check for the 'Message Queuing' service running on the host — its presence is required for exploitability of this CVE. ↗
- →Confirm TCP port 1801 is in a LISTEN state as a prerequisite indicator that the attack surface is exposed. ↗
- →Monitor for specially crafted network packets sent to a PGM Server environment (Windows Message Queuing over PGM) that could trigger remote code execution. ↗
- ·The vulnerability is only exploitable when the Windows Message Queuing service is enabled and running in a PGM Server environment; systems without this service enabled are not at risk. ↗

[CRITICAL] Microsoft Patch Tuesday, June 2023 Edition
Microsoft Corp. today released software updates to fix dozens of security vulnerabilities in its Windows operating systems and other software. This month’s relatively light patch load has another added bonus for system administrators everywhere: It appears to be the first Patch Tuesday since March 2022 that isn’t marred by the active exploitation of a zero-day vulnerability in Microsoft’s products.
June’s Patch Tuesday features updates to plug at least 70 security holes, and while none of these are reported by Microsoft as exploited in-the-wild yet, Redmond has flagged several in particular as “more likely to be exploited.”
Top of the list on that front is CVE-2023-29357, which is a “critical” bug in Microsoft SharePoint Server that can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker on the
