Chinese Hackers Hijack Polyfill.io to Serve Malware; Thousands of Websites Effected

Website administrators are being urged to remove the Polyfill.io service immediately after it was found to be serving malware to site visitors. The Polyfill.io service is quite popular, with more than 100,000 sites using it today– and it was sold in February 2024 to a Chinese company. Back then, the project’s original owners warned its users to remove the tool immediately, since they were now susceptible to a supply chain attack. Both Cloudflare and Fastly set up their own versions of the Polyfill.io service, giving users a trusted service. “No website today requires any of the polyfills in the polyfill.io library,” tweeted the original Polyfills service project developer. “Most features added to the web platform are quickly adopted by all major browsers, with some exceptions that generally can’t be polyfilled anyway, like Web Serial and Web Bluetooth.”

NETSCOUT Expands Into Canada with New Toronto Facility

NETSCOUT SYSTEMS, INC., a leading provider of DDoS attack protection solutions, this week announced it expanded its Arbor Cloud DDoS attack mitigation network to 16 scrubbing centers worldwide with the recent addition of a new Toronto facility. This network offers ISPs and enterprise customers more than 15 terabits per second (Tbps) of dedicated attack capacity. Canadian businesses and organizations will benefit from this new scrubbing center with lower latency because attack traffic takes less time to be diverted for mitigation and redirection to Canadian destinations. In addition, Canadian-originated and destined traffic and data remain within Canadian borders to help organizations comply with privacy and data sovereignty regulations at provincial and national levels.

Moving Away from VPN Solutions

“CISA’s recent guidance on moving from VPNs to more granular zero trust controls like SSE and SASE solutions is a welcome first step in the security dialogue. The more granular, context-sensitive controls offered by such solutions offer additional layers of protection to organizations in the event of a breach and will help to both reduce the risk of and contain potential breaches by limiting the privileges of attackers who compromise an individual system.

More broadly speaking, however, SSE and SASE software retains a good deal of residual risk. Just as attackers found vulnerabilities to exploit in the Internet-facing attack interfaces of VPNs, so too will attackers find ways to subvert the software mechanisms enforcing the SSE and SASE controls. Zero trust controls will help to control the immediate damage from such exploits, but it’s likely that dedicated, sophisticated attackers will leverage even the smallest footholds to gain persistent presence until other vulnerable software is identified within the network. To counter these threats, the market must look toward verifiable, fixed-function security enforcement mechanisms – like those enforced by hardware security technologies – for critical security functions.”
