</Event>Executive Summary
We have a Tomcat7 installation on a Windows 2008 server. Access was gained with default tomcat credentials (tomcat/tomcat). A file was uploaded which provided SYSTEM level access. Windows Credential Editor (WCE) was uploaded, a scheduled task was created which executed WCE and dumped local credentials into a single file. The attacker downloaded that file remotely, gaining access to the local Administrator account credentials. All attacks took place on 11th June 2015 from the IP 58.64.141.245
