The Computer Emergency Response Team of Ukraine (CERT-UA) reports about a new campaign dubbed "SickSync," launched by the UAC-0020 (Vermin) hacking group in attacks on the Ukrainian defense forces.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but this doesn’t look like this has anything to do with Syncthing vulnerabilities. Instead it looks like a hack that uses a preconfigured Syncthing installation to transfer sensitive data. Disturbing nonetheless.

It’s a Phishing scam using a tool. It’s no more exploiting SyncThing than TCP/IP.

Its physics all the way down
Just like using a remote desktop tool in a scam I suppose
Looks like a specially modified SyncThing was just used for exfil.
