**UAT-8837 (China-nexus APT)** is conducting sustained campaigns against North American critical infrastructure, leveraging a Sitecore ViewState deserialization zero-day (CVE-2025-53690) and a mix of open-source and custom tools (e.g., Earthworm, SharpHound, DWAgent, GoTokenTheft, Certipy, Impacket) to achieve initial access, AD enumeration, lateral movement, and exfiltration of proprietary DLLs; defenders are advised to monitor for RDP configuration changes, unusual AD enumeration, and administrative tool execution, apply rapid Sitecore patching, enforce MFA, and segment networks.
