@hisold @bagder §202c Criminal Code specifically says "made with the intent to abide and conduct manipulations (as per §202a & §202b)"

Plus, the actual "#hacking" on it's own is already criminalized.

How many unauthenticated file transfer servers are still exposed online in 2025? 🌐🔓

A critical flaw in CrushFTP, tracked as CVE-2025-2825, is being actively exploited in the wild. The vulnerability affects versions 10.0.0 through 10.8.3 and version 11.0.0, and it allows remote attackers to bypass authentication entirely using specially crafted HTTP or HTTPS requests. Public proof-of-concept code is already circulating, lowering the barrier for exploitation.

Shadowserver, a nonprofit security watchdog, reported that over 1,500 vulnerable instances remain online as of March 30, 2025. Just two days earlier, around 1,800 instances were detected, with more than half located in the U.S. These numbers suggest that many organizations haven't taken mitigation steps despite clear warnings.

The CrushFTP team has urged users to either patch immediately or, if an update isn't feasible, isolate installations using a DMZ configuration. This can reduce the attack surface but is not a long-term fix.

This type of vulnerability is particularly concerning because unauthenticated access to managed file transfer software often leads to sensitive data exposure or ransomware deployment. Groups like Cl0p have historically targeted platforms like MOVEit, Accellion FTA, and GoAnywhere MFT using similar flaws. In January, Cl0p claimed responsibility for exploiting Cleo file transfer software to breach dozens of companies.

CrushFTP's CVE-2025-2825 carries a CVSS score of 9.8. That reflects the ease of exploitation and the potential impact of compromise. For systems handling regulated or confidential data, the urgency is not optional—patching is essential.
