Helpful Hint -- To Avoid The Inevitable TL;DR
Dear El Reg:
How about a summary at the top of articles like this?
SUMMARY
(1) There is ("possibly") a zero days exploit on M$ Exchange.
(2) Bad actors can gain control of M$ Windows Servers though this exploit
(3) Bad actors can copy emails from M$ Exchange
(4) Bad actors can run anything they like on the compromised server
.....but here's the thing, people like me want to know about the wider NETWORK impact of this hack.
(5) Can bad actors use the compromised server to gain access to OTHER M$ servers on the same network?
(6) Can bad actors use the compromised server to gain access to OTHER servers on the same network? (e.g. Linux servers, IBM mainframes, etc)?
(7) Can bad actors use their access to impersonate the hacked business?
(8) Can the bad actors use their access to M$ Exchange to launch credible phishing campaigns elsewhere?
I think we should be told!!! I think a summary would help!!!
I read the whole article, but some commentards on El Reg might just mark the article TL;DR!!
