Here’s their Citrix Netscaler, on Monday it was still unpatched. beta.shodan.io/host/202.8.92.2

DP World’s Citrix Netscaler is now offline.

Mastodon to mainstream press in effect - Sydney Morning Herald have found out the Netscaler element in DP World ransomware via my toot being repeated.

Australian government has declared it a “nationally significant incident”.

@GossiTheDog I want to know what “DP World” is but I am not putting that into a search bar 🤣

@GossiTheDog Their OWA is also offline (duh)

I can't be arsed to check whether the two RDP things in UAE are still connectable. The [old?] Sophos & Sonicwall boxes are still there though.

Wouldn't surprise me if the ransomware people are still connected & poking around.

(DPW is apparently Dubai based)

@GossiTheDog didn’t ChatGPT report you as suing yourself? lol

If only DP World’s IT security people had been paying attention to ... almost anything, really, or perhaps their management processes prevented timely patching.
