Virtualizor Hit By BGP Hijack Attack
The server management panel Virtualizor recently suffered a devastating supply chain attack. Hackers maliciously manipulated Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing to redirect legitimate Virtualizor updates directly toward servers they controlled. Consequently, the attackers successfully installed backdoors onto host machines actively utilizing Virtualizor. They then injected their own SSH key pairs to guarantee total administrative control. Preliminary investigations reveal a remarkably severe BGP hijacking incident.
