Excessive ROP Exploits in Chrome

Anyone getting excessive ROP Exploits in Chrome?  Just in the past hour I've gotten 6 pop-ups about it and then another from Outlook (just opening a calendar item).

 

I am running the beta so it could be related to that.

 

Core Agent: 2.2.0 Beta

Endpoint Advanced: 10.8.3 Beta

Sophos Intercept X: 2.0.8

Google Chrome: 70.0.3538.77 (64-bit)

OS: Windows 7 Professional SP1 (64-bit)

  • Hi Breakingcustom,

    Can you please confirm the Sophos Intercept X version? and if you are still seeing the same issue as mentioned in the below advisory for both the chrome and the office applications.

    ROP Exploit - Chrome Advisory - If you are seeing the ROP detections when streaming media from websites.

    ROP Exploit - Office 2013 - This is only seen with Intercept X 2.0.9 (Which was rolled back).

    In case if your issue is different from the above advisory, please follow this KBA and it would require a support ticket to be opened to investigate it further.

    Regards,

  • Wouldn't be applicable to the Chrome Advisory since I'm running v70.  I'm also running 2.0.8 for InterceptX.

     

    This is the output from one of the errors in Hitman:

  • I just checked and most of these are also occurring on Chrome 70.

  • Hello,

    I am seeing a very similar issue - Chrome 70 - latest version of Sophos Central.

    The slightly concerning part for me in that the clean seems to fail as well.

     

    From Event Log:

    HitmanPro.Alert

    Mitigation   ROP

    Platform     6.1.7601/x64 v756 06_5e

    PID          171504

    Application  C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

    Description  Google Chrome 70

     Callee Type  AllocateVirtualMemory

     

    Has anybody got any further with this?
