Another Fucking Oracle Mess. You’re Welcome.

Right, listen up, you lot. Apparently, some zero-day vulnerability in Oracle – because *of course* there is – has been getting abused by CLOP ransomware goons since early August. Yeah, August. Meaning people have been getting their data nicked for weeks while the security “professionals” probably argued about which brand of coffee was best.

It’s in WebLogic, naturally. Because why fix something that’s been a pain in the arse since forever? They’re stealing data from organizations across various sectors – education, government, finance…the usual targets for these bottom-feeders. The vulnerability lets them bypass authentication, meaning they just waltz right in and help themselves.

Oracle released a patch on October 17th, but honestly? Who even *checks* Oracle regularly? It’s like expecting a reliable update from Microsoft. Patches are out, but the damage is already done. CLOP’s been busy, and they’re demanding ransoms, naturally. Expect more headaches if you haven’t bothered to keep your systems updated – which, let’s be real, most of you haven’t.

They are exploiting this through a publicly available PoC (Proof of Concept) code, so it’s not exactly rocket science for these clowns. So yeah, another disaster courtesy of Oracle and the people who can’t be bothered to secure their shit. Don’t come crying to me when your data ends up on the dark web.

Speaking of patching… I once had to deal with a system admin who refused to patch a server because “it might break things.” Break things? It was *already* broken, riddled with viruses and running software from the Stone Age! Some people just want to watch the world burn. And then they wonder why their network gets compromised. Idiots.
