Kaseya Patches VSA Vulnerabilities Used in REvil Attack

July 14, 2021

The IT management software provider Kaseya has recently closed the seven zero-day vulnerabilities that the Ransomware gang REvil uses to attack MSPs and their customers.

While the Dutch Institute for Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD) announced the seven vulnerabilities in April, Kaseya implemented patches for most vulnerabilities in the VSA SaaS service.

The operation was only completed when the Ransomware gang REvil ended it and used it to launch a massive attack on 60 MSPs on July 2.

Kaseya urged customers to follow the “On-Premises VSA Startup Readiness Guide” steps before installing the update to prevent further breaches and ensure the devices are not compromised before installation.
