Scans for Proxmox Servers, (Wed, Sep 9th)
SANS observed increased scanning and brute-force attacks on port 8006 targeting unsupported Proxmox VE 7 servers after a recent vulnerability advisory.
SANS Internet Storm Center reported a bump in scans for port 8006 and additional brute-force traffic against Proxmox VE servers following a Proxmox advisory about a vulnerability in older releases. The flaw only affects Proxmox VE version 7, which has been unsupported for a couple of years. Observed activity includes POST requests to /api2/json/access/ticket with root@pam usernames and weak passwords, fingerprinting requests, and POSTs to /api2/extjs/access/ticket; failed logins return 401 status codes and non-TLS POSTs return 308 redirects.
