Another article about Equifax, ho-hum. Except this one is the BEST summary of the attack I have found that is accessible to people who don’t have a lot of technical expertise but know a bit about cybersecurity and SQL injection. It walks the reader through the Apache STRUTS vulnerability, remote code injection, and shows a sample code injection. It’s worth a read now that we understand more of the terminology and context.
