Threat: Trojan.Win32.DarkNeuron.gen
Vulnerability: Named Pipe Null DACL
Family: DarkNeuron (Turla Group)
Type: PE32
MD5: d891c9374ccb2a4cae2274170e8644d8
Vuln ID: MVID-2022-0661
Disclosure: 11/24/2022
Description: The malware process "NCSC.exe" creates an IPC pipe with a NULL DACL allowing RW for the Everyone user group.
