Summary
Description
CISA received six files related to Microsoft SharePoint vulnerabilities: CVE-2025-49704 [CWE-94: Code Injection], CVE-2025-49706 [CWE-287: Improper Authentication], CVE-2025-53770 [CWE-502: Deserialization of Trusted Data], and CVE-2025-53771 [CWE-287: Improper Authentication]. According to Microsoft, cyber threat actors have chained CVE-2025-49706 (a network spoofing vulnerability) and CVE-2025-49704 (a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability) in an exploit chain known as “ToolShell” to gain unauthorized access to on-premise SharePoint servers.

CVE-2025-49706.
The analysis includes two Base64 encoded .NET Dynamic-link Library (DLL) binaries and four Active Server Page Extended [ASPX] files. The decoded DLLs are designed to retrieve machine key settings within an ASP[.]NET application’s configuration and add the retrieved machine key values to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) response header.
The first ASPX file is used to retrieve and output machine key information from an ASP[.]NET application’s configuration. The next ASPX file contains a command-line instruction used to execute a PowerShell command. The PowerShell command is designed to Base64 decode and install a malicious ASPX webshell on disk. The webshell is used to handle various web-related operations, including setting and retrieving HTTP cookies, command execution and upl
