"AtlasVPN Linux Zero-Day Disconnects Users, Reveals IP Addresses"

A security researcher has published exploit code for AtlasVPN for Linux, allowing anyone to disconnect a user and reveal their IP address by luring them to a website. NordVPN owns AtlasVPN, a "freemium" Virtual Private Network (VPN) service. According to its website, despite being only four years old, more than six million individuals worldwide use it. The unidentified researcher published exploit code for AtlasVPN Linux to the Full Disclosure mailing list and Reddit after receiving no response from the vendor. By copying and pasting the code onto their own website, any malicious hacker could disconnect any AtlasVPN user from their private network and expose their IP address. This article continues to discuss the AtlasVPN Linux exploit.
