Increase of Exploit ROP being caught in Microsoft Surface Pros

I am noticing a trend in the Root Cause Analysis on Sophos Central.  Several of end user Surface Pros are getting flagged with Exploit ROP. When I checked  with one user he said he was getting the warning message right after log in.

This has been happening for about a month which was about  when Microsoft pushed out the Fall Creators update.  So, I think these errors may be tied to that.  Are any other community members seeing this issue?

 

Thanks,

Rick

  • Hi Rick,

    We have similar issues pop-up. 

    Can you confirm if you still have the face problem as we've rolled out newer versions of Intercept X since then.

    If yes, please gather SDU Logs http://www.sophos.com/support/knowledgebase/article/33533.html and keep them ready to share with us when you raise a call with Support.

    Revert when you have the Case ID

    Thanks,

  • I think it may have to do with the Windows 10 cache (perhaps a corruption).  I am seeing it on Surface Pros and  PCs with Windows 10.

     

    I had one user restart his Surface Pro to clear the cache and that made the detections go away for a while.  My next step is to have him restart his Surface Pro once a week before he goes to lunch. and see if that puts an end to the detections.  Once I confirm it's related to cache  I will submit my results to Sophos support.
