Attackers took over more than 400 packages in the Arch User Repository (AUR) this week and rewrote their build scripts to install a credential stealer on any machine that built them. The malware is a Rust binary built to harvest developer secrets. When it lands with root, it can…
Vulnerability in the Oracle-owned PeopleSoft software is about as critical as they come.
Attackers took over more than 400 packages in the Arch User Repository (AUR) this week and rewrote their build scripts to install a credential stealer on any machine that built them. The malware is a Rust binary built to harvest developer secrets. When it lands with root, it can…
Google on Friday said it's pursuing legal action against a Chinese cybercrime network, accusing it of using its Gemini artificial intelligence (AI) agent to send phishing text messages targeting Americans. The network is said to be behind the development and management of a phis…
Instead of hiding on the laptops and servers defenders watch most closely, a China-nexus group spent close to a decade hidden inside the Linux login system itself. Sygnia, which tracks the group as Velvet Ant, says it backdoored the PAM and OpenSSH components that decide who is …
Over 20 Linux packages were compromised in the Atomic Arch campaign, which abuses AUR ownership transfers to drop rootkit-like malware.
A Ukrainian national extradited from Ireland to the United States last year has pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges tied to the Conti ransomware operation. [...]
More than 400 packages in the Arch User Repository (AUR) are distributing a Linux rootkit and infostealer malware targeting credentials and access tokens. [...]
Google says ShinyHunters exploited Oracle PeopleSoft zero-day to steal data from 100+ organisations, with universities making up most victims.
GitHub access sales, leaked repositories, and stolen API keys can all become supply-chain attack footholds. Flare explores how underground forums expose early signals tied to software supply-chain risk. [...]
Cybersecurity researchers have described what they say is a new class of attack that can trick artificial intelligence (AI) coding agents into running arbitrary code on developer machines. Called Agentjacking by Tenet Security, the attack can be triggered by means of a fake erro…
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of three now-patched security flaws impacting LangGraph, including a critical vulnerability chain that could result in remote code execution. LangGraph is an open-source framework created by LangChain to build complex, stateful, a…
An INTERPOL-led operation last month resulted in the disruption of Sniper Dz, a decade-long phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform, Group-IB said Thursday. The effort, codenamed Operation Ramz, took place between October 2025 and February 2026, and saw authorities from 13 countr…
Hackers are valuing quality over quantity, using AI to upgrade their phishing attacks rather than multiplying them.
The ShinyHunters extortion crew exploited an unpatched flaw in Oracle PeopleSoft to break into enterprise systems, steal data, and demand payment to keep it private. The campaign hit universities hardest. Google's Mandiant attributes it to the group it tracks as UNC6240, and dat…
Oracle is warning about a critical PeopleSoft Suite zero-day vulnerability tracked as CVE-2026-35273 that allows unauthenticated remote code execution, with the flaw actively exploited in ShinyHunter data theft attacks. [...]
Initial methods suggest attackers had likely mapped out Ivanti's asset landscape upfront and acted quickly once the exploit became public.
Two security teams have shown, in separate research published this week, that OpenClaw, the popular self-hosted AI agent, can be driven to run attacker-controlled code or hand over sensitive data through ordinary-looking inputs. Imperva buried instructions inside shared contacts…
Security researcher Chaotic Eclipse (aka Nightmare-Eclipse and MSNightmare) has released a new Windows BitLocker bypass dubbed GreatXML, a day after they published an exploit for Microsoft Defender. "This was an accidental discovery, it took a total of 4 hours to find this," the…
A new analysis of The Gentlemen operation has revealed that the financially motivated threat group initially operated as an affiliate responsible for conducting double extortion attacks, while leveraging resources from various ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) schemes like LockBit (…
