   Microsoft-owned Github pulls down proof-of-concept code posted by researcher.   
      
   By Dan Goodin   
      
   Github has ignited a firestorm after the Microsoft-owned code-sharing   
   repository removed a proof-of-concept exploit for critical   
   vulnerabilities in Microsoft Exchange that have led to as many as   
   100,000 server infections in recent weeks.   
      
   ProxyLogon is the name that researchers have given both to the four   
   Exchange vulnerabilities under attack in the wild and the code that   
   exploits them. Researchers say that Hafnium, a state-sponsored hacking   
   group based in China, started exploiting ProxyLogon in January, and   
   within a few weeks, five other APTs - short for advanced persistent   
   threat groups - followed suit. To date, no fewer than 10 APTs have   
   used ProxyLogon to target servers around the world.
