Bitdefender BEST 7.4.2.142 (Windows) Release Notes – Fast Ring

BItdefender updates The release notes are available here.

Folks stay up to date on Product 7.4.2.142 and  engine 7.90782 last update 1-4-2022

Also Bitdefender alerts via email .. they are still struggling and still using Mailchimp hence you’re not receiving all alerts that you have requested. Very important to login daily..and review your endpoints if they have red on them more then likely it is a  engine update but could be a product update is needed. If you are with a RMM solution using Bitdefender my suggestion is to convert to the real Gravity Zone platform. Not all distributors are the same, pricing should be the same based upon Bitdefender guidelines but some will try to buy your business. Pricing is not always the best way to select your distributor, interview them and find out if you have a questions or issue do they pick up the phone and do they have tech support available to answer and fix your solution and or questions. Safe Safe folks malware is on the rise

Security Advisory: Bitdefender Response to Critical Zero-Day Apache Log4j2 Vulnerability 12-11-2021

As normal Bitdefender is on top of this:

Link for Article

On December 9, 2021, Apache disclosed CVE-2021-44228, a remote code execution vulnerability – assigned with a severity of 10 (the highest possible risk score) – affecting Apache Log4j2, a Java-based logging framework widely used in commercial and open-source software products. The vulnerability affects versions 2.0 through 2.14.1; version 2.15.0 is not vulnerable.  

Bitdefender is already seeing and monitoring several malicious actors running active exploitation campaigns. 

The CVE-2021-44228 vulnerability has been assigned the highest possible risk score (CVSS 10) due to its exploitation impact (ability to remotely execute code on targeted hosts). Likely, this vulnerability will linger in computing infrastructures for an extensive period of time due to the widespread use of the Log4j2 logging framework. It is important to note this vulnerability is easy to exploit and applications using the affected Log4j2 versions are subject to an extensive attack surface. Immediate action is advisable.

Double check you other Vendors and RMM systems or remote Control programs
