In Progress MOVEit Transfer before 2021.0.6 (13.0.6), 2021.1.4 (13.1.4), 2022.0.4 (14.0.4), 2022.1.5 (14.1.5), and 2023.0.1 (15.0.1), a SQL injection vulnerability has been found in the MOVEit Transfer web application that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to gain access to MOVEit Transfer's database. Depending on the database engine being used (MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or Azure SQL), an attacker may be able to infer information about the structure and contents of the database, and execute SQL statements that alter or delete database elements. NOTE: this is exploited in the wild in May and June 2023; exploitation of unpatched systems can occur via HTTP or HTTPS. All versions (e.g., 2020.0 and 2019x) before the five explicitly mentioned versions are affected, including older unsupported versions.

  • →LemurLoot webshell (human2.aspx) is deployed in the MOVEit Transfer wwwroot directory; hunt for new or modified ASPX files written by the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) under \MOVEitTransfer\wwwroot\ ↗
  • →Each LemurLoot payload is dynamically compiled at runtime, resulting in a unique hash per victim; do not rely solely on hash-based detection — use behavioral and log-based hunting instead. ↗
  • →The exploit chain begins with SQL injection to obtain a sysadmin API token, followed by calling a deserialization function that does not properly validate input to achieve RCE; monitor MOVEit Transfer application and IIS logs for anomalous SQL activity and unexpected API token generation. ↗
  • →Check Point IPS blade signature name for this CVE can be used as a detection reference: 'MOVEit Transfer SQL Injection (CVE-2023-34362)' ↗
  • ·Exploitation affects both internet-facing and on-premises MOVEit Transfer instances; all versions prior to 2021.0.6, 2021.1.4, 2022.0.4, 2022.1.5, and 2023.0.1 are vulnerable, including older unsupported versions. ↗
  • ·Threat actors may have begun experimenting with the exploit as early as 2021, well before the May 2023 mass exploitation wave; historical log review should extend back further than the immediate incident window. ↗
