Australian Cyber Agency Warns of Global CMS Exploitation Campaign

The Australian Cyber Security Centre has alerted content management system (CMS) administrators to a widespread campaign involving reconnaissance and exploitation attempts targeting CMS platforms globally. The campaign appears to combine automated scanning with active exploitation across multiple victims.

Why it matters: CMS administrators and organizations running WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, or other platforms must review their access logs and apply available patches immediately; this is active exploitation at scale with direct exposure to web-facing systems.
