I'm being cyberattacked by Tesla, Inc
TL;DR
A user reported persistent cyberattacks originating from Tesla-related IPs, specifically targeting their server with malicious requests. The traffic was linked to Assetnote user agents attempting to exploit SSRF vulnerabilities.
✦ Why It Matters
Review your server logs for unusual traffic patterns and implement security measures against SSRF vulnerabilities.
Key Takeaways
- Verify asset scanning tools to avoid targeting unrelated systems.
- Monitor server logs for unusual traffic patterns.
- Implement defenses against common exploit attempts.
- Communicate with affected parties if misconfigurations are detected.
How It Works
Assetnote scans for vulnerabilities by resolving domain names to IP addresses. In this case, it mistakenly included pool-ntp.tesla.com, which points to various volunteer NTP servers, leading to unintended attacks on unrelated systems.
