Exploitation of Ivanti Vulnerabilities Leads to MDifyLoader Deployment and In-Memory Cobalt Strike Attacks

Cybersecurity researchers have revealed new insights into MDifyLoader, a malware recently linked to cyber attacks exploiting security weaknesses in Ivanti Connect Secure (ICS) appliances. A report from JPCERT/CC highlights that threat actors have exploited vulnerabilities CVE-2025-0282 and CVE-2025-22457 between December 2024 and July 2025 to deploy MDifyLoader, which is then utilized to initiate in-memory Cobalt Strike operations. CVE-2025-0282 is a critical vulnerability allowing unauthenticated remote code execution, addressed by Ivanti in January 2025. Meanwhile, CVE-2025-22457, patched in February 2025, involves a stack-based buffer overflow potentially enabling arbitrary code execution. Previous findings indicate that CVE-2025-0282 was actively weaponized in the wild as a zero-day beginning in mid-December 2024, facilitating the delivery of various malware families.
