The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has urged organizations to immediately secure Microsoft SharePoint deployments after warning that three vulnerabilities affecting the on-premises collaboration platform are being actively exploited.

A recent advisory from the federal cybersecurity watchdog asked administrators to patch vulnerable servers, review Microsoft’s mitigation guidance, and assume that internet-facing SharePoint instances remain attractive targets for attackers seeking an initial foothold into enterprise environments.

While applying patches remains the immediate priority, security experts caution that organizations should view the advisory as more than another Patch Tuesday exercise.
