GeoServer CVE-2024-36401 response: what the attack chain teaches defenders
CISA reports exploitation of CVE-2024-36401 on public-facing GeoServer systems. Attackers used web shells, cron jobs and valid accounts, some later deleted, for persistence, and brute force for lateral movement and privilege escalation. PowerShell and BITS jobs pulled payloads; Stowaway provided command and control through the web server. A second outbound connection likely served as backup. CISA recommends prompt patching, out-of-band logging and incident-response practice.
