It appears another (there have been many the past months) CRITICAL “zero auth” attack for N-Able dropped over the weekend, and N-Able has no response other than “Shut it down and await further instructions” today.

Sorry for linking to poison site, but it’s the only place they have a public visible mention of it. Nothing on their site, not even logged in.

I know we’re in the age of AI ruining absolutely everything, but the last few months of them calling us ON THE PHONE to insist we patch RIGHT NOW, TODAY leading up to WE HAVE NO PATCH, SHUT IT DOWN is my “last straw” with this company.

Will edit this post when/if I hear back. We’re what- 6 hours in as a paying customer and they’re full radio silence outside of the email telling us to shut 'er down.

edited again: 8 hours later, absolute radio silence. If you have NABL stock, (not a financial advisor) I suggest you dump it first thing in the morning.

Edit again, late Tuesday: hotfix released, unknown how much it covers, they’re warning there will be more hotfixes soon. They at least told clients that once updated we can let the servers go live again.

    So Kaseya all over again. Kaseya’s was a bit worse due to the attack method, but these systems need to be air tight.

    When Kaseya’s massive breach was discovered, we shut down our server and never turned it back on. We immediately pivoted to a different product. Kaseya will never regain my trust after that.
