ServiceNow has released a critical remote code execution vulnerability that is now being actively exploited in attacks against customer instances. The flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity and Enterprise Software. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.

The Wire takeaway

If your product runs on ServiceNow or your customers depend on it, your incident response plan is now live: patch before the next working day. Every hour without patching is an open door for attackers to get inside your customer's most sensitive data.
