Snort rule update for March 4, 2021 — Continuing coverage for Microsoft Exchange zero-day

Cisco Talos released another rule update for SNORTⓇ last night that adds additional protection against the exploitation of zero-day vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange Server. This follows the eight rules we released earlier this week.

Microsoft disclosed these vulnerabilities earlier in the week, attributing the attacks to a group known as HAFNIUM. For more on this threat, head to the Talos blog.

Here's a breakdown of Wednesday's rule release:
