Technical Analysis
Was obvious the week it hit that it would replace 2010-3333, and it did. Bread and butter for many phishing campaigns for years.
In your analysis you stated that this is common in enterprise. Is this still the case, whilst i can accept that there will be some organisations that are running legacy I feel that this will not longer be common, and therefore its attacker value is decreased?
Or do we think that it is still a very large threat surface for enterprise?
good question. my assumption is this rating system is based on a scenario where the target is vulnerable/not mitigated and contemporaneous to first observation/exploitation for factors like enterprise exposure.
