It was amazing seeing Chuck test a real vunerability, this could be a very interesting series on your channel!

[@gamereditor59ner22]

Zero-day vulnerability is scary and should be consider to learn with caution. Thank you for the information and keep it up!

[@axa897]

Its not scary do not open any files from email and you 100% safe 🤷😂

Do not open .docx or .doc anymore that's it. Use a trial vps instead to open if you really need to see what's inside document.

Thank you Network Chuck for making this video so quickly and of course thanks to John Hammond. I followed along and indeed was fun to play around with.

Can you please hack my old inactive instagram account?

[@Enlightened.]

Hello there. I hope I am not intruding on your busy schedule. I was just wondering if you knew whether someone found a fix to this that doesn't involve the removal of the new text file option? I followed the official guide to fix it and I just reversed it back to before the fix because I can't bear having to open notepad to created a text file.

Definitely would like to see more of these type of videos. As a user of the 365 support and recovery tool for troubleshooting tenant issues I’m wondering how vulnerable the program is to being exploited, especially not knowing how superficial endpoint scanning is…

Thank you for this video, relateable content as im in the cyber security field. Would definatly be intersted in more content like this.

[@NetworkChuck]

Will do!

[@ChristianPixtun]

You should really do a playlist explaining these vulnerabilities. Yes, there are channels explaining this stuff, but with you and your way of teaching things, explaining a CVE and how it works is a must for security professionals, especially if they want to be blue or red team pros, or even us, who are just passionate of these things. Do a playlist!!!!!!

[@Asherstitusworld]

Super Video Chuck Your videos are awesome And informative

[@steps0x029a]

Windows Defender seems to have caught up with Follina. Word still reaches out to the server, but that's it. You get a warning and nothing else is happening - at least with my setup, don't feel too safe. I really like the idea of Chuck and John making content as a team, by the way!

[@MrSpyLiam]

It depends on what you do with Folina. Hackers are experts in remaining undetected. What Chuck shows you is a very basic attack, but in real life instances victims wouldn't know that anything has been done, other than that they open a Microsoft product and the troubleshooting window runs.

[@steps0x029a]

@@MrSpyLiamof course. But as Defender seems to actually prevent the execution, it shouldn't really matter what payload is used. I might be wrong, though 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@twcziggybomz187]

Hey Chuck , ive actually come across the exact same thing yesterday except it wasnt a word document. It was a whole installation ISO of Windows 11 Pro , which my brother downloaded from the Pirate Bay. it triggered instantly once the installation was completed , and had some more effects to it whereby it damaged hardware so bad that the bios was messed up as well.

[@AnotherSkyTV]

You mean it ran this diagnostic tool window once installation was finished?

[@twcziggybomz187]

@@AnotherSkyTV yes once instalation was finished , pc rebooted , once signed in diagostic popped up

[@moth5799]

An ISO that you use at boot has basically full access to your system, not a good idea to download that from a pirate site without checking it in a VM first at least, msdt is the least of your issues when it comes to that lmao

[@cleightthejw2202]

@NetWorkChuck Yes, you should keep doing vids like this. The good thing to this would be your growing along the way AND bringing others with you as they learn these things too!

34 is not a “weird obfuscation” but just “ required so the Base64 receives payload string and decodes it and executes it, like a normal function call where the argument is a string, in this case, a base64 encoded payload

[@mikealuspol5819]

Nice Video NetworkChuck, thanks for the information and i think that you can disable the msdt with a registry key so we can be more safe.

[@StephenCurry-nm7io]

In essence, exploits of Follina involve a Word document containing a web link to an attacker-controlled web resource. Since Word automatically fetches such embedded links, the attacker may specially crafting their content such that it invokes a MSDT instance which may be used to force the execution of attacker-supplied Powershell commands. However, you failed to mention that Follina may be exploited in a zero-click fashion using a file in an .rtf format which runs the code via the Preview Tab in Explorer.

[@ribu9649]

i followed the steps of opening the microsoft word document, it prompts a message upon open the follina document which says "enter the passkey provided by your support professional". any idea?

[@fufu_btw]

I have the same thing. The Windows 11 Development environment has a MSDT version patched for this exploit. Seems like we need to create a virual machine from scratch !

[@hycheng15]

Having the same thing. :( I use Windows 10 21H2 64 bit + Microsoft Office 2019 Enterprise (ODT). Do anyone have the right combination of OS and Office version that reproduce the vulnerable environment successfully?

so to temporiarly stop this it would be best to stop ms-msdt ? like replacing handling of this protocol in registry
