Does anyone know if the funding issues at #MITRE also compromise (future) #mitreattack development and maintenance?
This as a follow-up question to the whole #CVE snafu.

Updates from the #CVEFoundation
Representatives from the CVE Foundation met with representatives from CISA on 4/24/2025. The talks were positive and encouraging. All parties wish to keep the conversation and progress moving forward.
Crypters And Tools. Часть 2: Разные лапы — один клубок
Всем салют! Вновь на связи киберразведчики из экспертного центра безопасности (PT ESC) с новой порцией находок, связанных с Crypters And Tools. В первой части мы рассказали о крипторе, который мы обнаружили в процессе исследования атак различных группировок. Отчет концентрировался на внутреннем устройстве и инфраструктуре самого криптора. В этой части мы расскажем о хакерских группировках, которые использовали его в атаках, их связях, уникальных особенностях, а также о пользователях Crypters And Tools, часть из которых связана с рассматриваемыми группировками.

Neu im Research-Blog: Rolling in the Deep (Web) - Lazarus Tsunami
Bei der Unterstützung eines Kunden konnte HiSolutions umfangreiche Teile des #Malware-Frameworks #Tsunami sicherstellen, analysieren und damit den Angriffsweg der laufenden „Contagious Interview“-Kampagne der Angreifergruppe #Lazarus rekonstruieren.
Für Betroffene enthält unser Artikel alle technischen Details inklusive YARA-Regeln und IoC zur Entdeckung einer Infektion sowie einer Abbildung der genutzten Tools und Techniken auf die #MITRE ATT&CK Matrix.

#CVE fallout: The splintering of the standard #vulnerability tracking system has begun
Earlier this week, CVE program faced doom as the #US #government discontinued funding for #MITRE, the non-profit that operates the program. Uncle Sam U-turned at the very last minute.
Meanwhile, the #EU is rolling its own. #EuropeanUnion Agency for #Cybersecurity (#ENISA) developed and maintains this alternative, which is known as the #EUVD, or the European Union Vulnerability Database.

This Week in Security: No More CVEs, 4chan, and Recall Returns - The sky is falling.

As part of the 2022 EU NIS2 directive, the EU agency for cybersecurity (ENISA) has been setting up the EU Vulnerability Database (EUVD) at https://euvd.enisa.europa.eu/ (now in beta).
Started as a collaboration with MITRE's authoritative CVE database, EUVD may now end up replacing it, as US funding for the CVE database has stopped.
Saved at the final hour!
Security Database Used by Apple Goes Independent After Funding Cut [Updated]
https://www.macrumors.com/2025/04/16/security-database-used-apple-goes-independent/
The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has moved to secure continued operations of the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) programme by extending its contract with MITRE, preventing a potentially disruptive lapse in critical cybersecurity services.

After the #MITRE #CVE DB funding scare of a couple of days, it seems that the problem is apparently solved, for now: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/cisa-extends-funding-to-ensure-no-lapse-in-critical-cve-services/

It's alive! The CVE Program has secured another 11 months of funding, which can now be used to establish alternatives and secure other sources of funding.
#MITRE published already a few new #CVEs today, like this privilege escalation in the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System: https://fieldguide.lutrasecurity.com/CVE-2025-43715/
Nach dem gestrigen Schock und der drohenden CVE-Abschaltung hat die US-Regierung die Finanzierungsvereinbarung mit der #MITRE Corporation im so ziemlich letzten Moment verlängert.
Im Nachgang an den gestrigen Tag ergeben sich durchaus Parallelen zur bisherigen Trump'schen Salamitaktik in Fragen der nationalen Digitalregulierung mit außenpolitischer Relevanz.
Viel deutlicher als gestern konnte der Weckruf für die EU wohl nicht sein, eigene Wege zu finden und zu gehen.

#CVE-Aus abgewendet, #Schwachstellendatenbank der #EU geht an den Start
"Entscheidung in letzter Minute - offenbar geht der Vertrag zwischen #CISA und #MITRE in die Verlängerung. Mehrere Initiativen präsentieren derweil Alternativen.
Die US-Cybersicherheitsbehörde CISA hat den Vertrag mit der MITRE Corporation, Betreiberin der CVE-Datenbank, offenbar in allerletzter Sekunde verlängert..."
