The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is warning of critical vulnerabilities affecting Philips Tasy electronic medical records (EMR) system that could be exploited by remote threat actors to extract sensitive personal data from patient databases. "Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could result in patients' confidential data being exposed or extracted from Tasy's database, give unauthorized access, or create a denial-of-service condition," CISA  said  in a medical bulletin issued on November 4. Used by over 950 healthcare institutions primarily in Latin America, Philips Tasy EMR is designed as an  integrated healthcare informatics  solution that enables centralized management of clinical, organizational and administrative processes, including incorporating analytics, billing, and inventory and supply management for medical prescriptions. The  SQL injection  flaws — CVE-2021-39375 and CVE-2021-39376 — affect Tas...

Multiple security vulnerabilities have been disclosed in Philips Clinical Collaboration Platform Portal (aka Vue PACS), some of which could be exploited by an adversary to take control of an affected system. "Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an unauthorized person or process to eavesdrop, view or modify data, gain system access, perform code execution, install unauthorized software, or affect system data integrity in such a way as to negatively impact the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of the system," the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)  noted  in an advisory. The 15 flaws impact: VUE Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (versions 12.2.x.x and prior), Vue MyVue (versions 12.2.x.x and prior), Vue Speech (versions 12.2.x.x and prior), and Vue Motion (versions 12.2.1.5 and prior) Four of the issues (CVE-2020-1938, CVE-2018-12326, CVE-2018-11218, CVE-2020-4670, and CVE-2018-8014) have been given a C...

Identity-based attacks are on the rise. Attackers are targeting identities with compromised credentials, hijacked authentication methods, and misused privileges. While many threat detection solutions focus on cloud, endpoint, and network threats, they overlook the unique risks posed by SaaS identity ecosystems. This blind spot is wreaking havoc on heavily SaaS-reliant organizations big and small. The question is, what can security teams do about it? Have no fear, because Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) is here to save the day. It's essential to have the visibility and response mechanisms to stop attacks before they become breaches. Here's the super lineup that every team needs to stop SaaS identity threats. #1 Full coverage: cover every angle  Like Cap's shield, this defense should cover every angle. Traditional threat detection tools such as XDRs and EDRs fail to cover SaaS applications and leave organizations vulnerable. SaaS identity threat detection and re...
