When a single e-mail gives hackers full access to your network

“The vulnerability, which is on by default in the NX, EX, AX, FX series of FireEye products, was [disclosed by] FireEye last week, after researchers from Google’s Project Zero privately reported it. It made it possible for attackers to penetrate a network by sending one of its members a single malicious e-mail, even if it’s never opened. It’s not uncommon for outsiders to find such critical flaws in a security product. Still, the proof-of-concept exploit underscores that such game-over threats often extend to some of a network’s most critical equipment.”
