Vulnerability resides in Versa Director, a virtualization platform that allows ISPs and managed service providers to manage complex networking infrastructures from a single dashboard.
The attacks, which began no later than June 12 and are likely ongoing, allow the threat actors to install " VersaMem ," a custom web shell.
Versa patched the vulnerability Monday after Lumen reported it earlier.
