AI Summary

In December 2025, threat actor Storm-2603 exploited CVE-2025-53770 and CVE-2025-53771 (ToolShell vulnerabilities) in on-premises Microsoft SharePoint to achieve remote code execution, deploying a fileless webshell within the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe). The attack used in-memory execution via a VirtualPathProvider-based implant to maintain persistence without writing to disk, enabling command and control, lateral movement, and data exfiltration. The actor deployed Velociraptor for post-compromise operations, attempted to deploy Warlock ransomware, and used EDR-killing techniques, but was partially blocked by security controls.
