SonicWall disables SSLVPN due to attacks

SonicWall advises disabling SSLVPN due to a surge in ransomware attacks targeting its firewalls. Researchers report evidence of ransomware gangs exploiting a likely zero-day vulnerability in SonicWall's Generation 7 firewalls, enabling network access. The attacks, observed since mid-July, may be linked to the Akira ransomware group, which has previously targeted enterprise security products.
