ModSecurity is an open-source Web Application Firewall (WAF) engine maintained by Trustwave. This blog post discusses an issue with four transformation actions that could enable a Denial of Service (DoS) attack by a malicious actor. The issue has been addressed with fixes in v3.0.10. ModSecurity v2 is not affected.
As attackers get more creative in their malicious tradecraft, cloud security teams must be able to keep up with detections that provide adequate coverage against the diverse threats to their cloud environments. Threat emulation enables cloud security teams to leverage their understanding of threat actor behaviors as a feedback loop for developing cloud-based detections and validating their resilience.
