Attackers from every corner of the internet are exploiting a uniquely dangerous class of cyber flaws: resurgent vulnerabilities.
These aren’t being exploited as zero-days — and spikes in activity rarely make headlines. They’re older flaws that quietly return to relevance as attacker interest reignites. Some were deprioritized years ago. Others were never seen as serious. But today, they’re being opportunistically exploited at scale, often in edge technologies like firewalls, routers, and VPNs — the very internet-facing assets attackers use for initial access and persistence.
