Plex vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild to drop a cryptominer

The Plex media server is being exploited in the wild to drop a cryptominer, with at least one vulnerability being utilized by attackers. The vulnerability, which is a remote code execution (RCE) bug, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on the server, including the deployment of a cryptominer. The attack is targeting Plex servers running on Linux, with the attackers using the vulnerability to install a cryptominer that mines for Monero (XMR). The cryptominer is installed without the user's knowledge or consent, and the attackers are using the server's resources to mine for cryptocurrency.
