Malicious Traffic in Port 7001 Surges as Cryptominers Target Patched 2017 Oracle WebLogic Vulnerability

We observed a large spike in the number of devices scanning the internet for port 7001/TCP since April 27, 2018. Our analysis found that it's increased activity was caused by cybercriminals engaging in cryptomining via exploiting CVE-2017-10271. The flaw is a patched Oracle WebLogic WLS-WSAT vulnerability that can allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on unpatched servers. This marks the second time attackers abused CVE-2017-10271 for cryptomining purposes this year. In February, the vulnerability was exploited to deliver 64-bit and 32-bit variants of an XMRig Monero miner.
