      "On August 19, 2026, a security advisory was published for CVE-2026-19490, a critical authentication bypass vulnerability affecting Citrix NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v4.0 base score of 9.3 and can be exploited remotely by an unauthenticated attacker over the network without user interaction or elevated privileges. NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway are widely deployed enterprise networking products commonly positioned at or near the network perimeter. NetScaler ADC provides application delivery, traffic management, load balancing, SSL/TLS offloading, and application security capabilities, while NetScaler Gateway provides secure remote access and VPN functionality. Because these systems are frequently deployed in enterprise DMZs and exposed to the public internet, authentication bypass vulnerabilities affecting Citrix products are nearly always exploited by threat actors."

    • Yet Another RCE In Gogs, But It's Fixed This Time!
      "Gogs is an open-source Git hosting platform like GitHub or GitLab. The application allows users to manage their own repositories and organizations. Under the hood, it relies heavily on the git CLI. There has been a long history of RCE's in Gogs, most taking a while to fix, requiring public disclosure before an officially patched version is even out. This case was different. After a few months of silence, it seems work has started again on securing Gogs by the maintainers, and all our reports were fixed as of version 0.14.3! We hope this trend continues and eventually brings Gogs into a secure state. However, there is currently still one unpatched bypass of a vulnerability we reported that our AI pentest agents found. We provide a manual code patch for that below."

    • Balonx Sistema: The Face Behind The PhaaS Affecting Mexican Banking
      "Mexico’s banking infrastructure has emerged as a primary target for sophisticated cyber threats in Latin America, ranking second only to Brazil in banking malware incidents in 2025. This escalation is tightly linked to the rise of Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) platforms, which enable low-capability threat actors to execute industrial-scale financial fraud. More than 20 financial institutions in the country currently face these persistent, subscription-based operational threats. In response to this threat landscape, Group-IB conducted an in-depth technical analysis of Balonx Sistema, a highly structured PhaaS platform developed by an operative based in Mexico."

      "Between 17 June and 22 July 2026, a single operator compromised over 14,000 Dahua IP cameras. The scanning behind it was global: masscan sweeps ran against Russian address space first, then across the full IPv4 range, and the largest single haul actually landed in Mexican and Vietnamese ISP ranges before the operator's focus settled on Russian and CIS telecom netblocks. Where the confirmed, geolocated compromises concentrated was Ukraine and Russia, with Ukraine holding the largest share. This is the second Dahua-related camera compromise operation we've traced back to an exposed operator directory in as many weeks. Where last week's investigation centered on a Russian-speaking operator running a purpose-built platform against 58 cameras, this one is a different scale entirely."

    • Describing Attacks With Crime Script Analysis
      "Effective defense against cyber attacks requires understanding how attacks are carried out and identifying where the attack can be disrupted or detected. Lockheed Martin’s Cyber Kill Chain was one of the earliest models to describe the steps required to conduct a cyber attack. However, its seven-step linear sequence is too rigid to apply to many attacks. The Attack Flow model of the MITRE ATT&CK framework allows various tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to be chained together to describe exactly how attacks are conducted, including branches and loops if necessary. The resulting graphs are comprehensive, but can be daunting to a non-technical audience. In a world of evolving threats and shrinking budgets, defenders need techniques to communicate threats to a wider audience."

    • How Grok Unknowingly Powers Cybercrime
      "Our collective safety increasingly depends on frontier AI capabilities being prohibitively expensive for criminals to acquire. Our latest research found that access starts at just $12.99 a month. ‘Kriminal’ is one of the newest and most popular tools in the criminal AI market, and it isn’t hiding on the dark web. It’s living in plain sight on the clearnet, indexed by Google, with a login button and five pricing options. It markets itself as “the AI that answers everything. No filters, no guardrails.” On the surface, Kriminal claims to have done the economically impossible and created a frontier AI from scratch, built by and for cybercriminals. Under the hood its own code reveals that almost nothing is new: no model, no infrastructure, no original capability. It’s a storefront renting intelligence from the same legitimate AI industry it claims to circumvent."

    • Scammers Are Using Fake Crypto AML Checkers To Drain Your Wallet
      "Scammers are creating fake crypto wallet-checking sites that promise to tell you whether a wallet is linked to suspicious activity. Instead, they try to trick you into giving them access to your crypto. AML stands for anti-money laundering. These are rules that require banks and other regulated businesses to screen customers for ties to crime. It’s designed to prevent cybercriminals from hiding or moving illegally obtained money. In the crypto world, this usually means checking whether a wallet address has links to hacks, scams, sanctioned entities, or other suspicious activity based on its transaction history."

    • Hunting MacSync Stealer Infrastructure Through Behavioral Pivots
      "MacSync Stealer is a macOS-focused information stealer that relies on changing infrastructure to deliver payloads, communicate with compromised devices, and exfiltrate data. Earlier reporting by RST Cloud identified the threat through a limited set of domains and documented rapid command-and-control (C2) replacement after public disclosure. Microsoft Defender Experts expanded that view by correlating recurring endpoints and network behaviors across the activity. This behavior-led approach connected more than 30 domains and showed that the infrastructure supported more than C2 communication, extending into active collection, staging, and exfiltration. The findings demonstrate that although domains may rotate quickly, repeated execution patterns, request characteristics, staging behavior, and upload methods provide defenders with more durable opportunities to investigate MacSync Stealer activity."

TRU found Cruciferra using a vulnerable driver to fulfill this behavior. The driver, also known as, "DCRCVDrv.sys", is signed by South Korean IT company MocoMsys and exposes an IOCTL that allows user-mode applications to terminate processes directly from the kernel. The Cruciferra Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) first appeared in November 2025 and is currently sold for $1200 per month for the package with EDR killing features by the user Cruciferra on underground hacking forums."

      "Grandoreiro is a notorious banking trojan that has been operating across Latin America since at least 2016, targeting financial institutions and their customers through phishing campaigns and social engineering techniques. Written in Delphi and Brazilian in origin, it is one of the many of Latin American banking trojans (alongside Guildma, Javali and Melcoz). Over the years, the malware has gone through multiple iterations and infrastructure changes to evade detection and sustain its operations. In January 2024, a coordinated operation led by Brazil's Polícia Federal and coordinated through INTERPOL — with Spanish authorities and private-sector partners — disrupted significant portions of its infrastructure and reduced its overall reach."

    • A Revisit Of Remote Spectre Attacks On Cloudflare Workers
      "In 2021, we assessed remote Spectre attacks against Cloudflare Workers. Based on the results, we shipped a production defense called Dynamic Process Isolation (DyPrIs), which identifies maliciously looking scripts and isolates them into separate processes. Since then, newer techniques in the area of stabilizing Spectre attacks have been discovered. To understand if these techniques posed a threat to our Workers production environment, we decided to internally reassess the remote Spectre attack. Building an updated proof-of-concept on the production environment allowed us to empirically assess the risk of Spectre attacks under production workloads."

      "The Russian influence network CopyCop (Storm-1516) very likely targeted the joint United States (US) and Armenian-backed Firebird AI data center in Hrazdan, Armenia, as part of a broader campaign to undermine Armenia's westward geopolitical and economic realignment. Between June 24 and July 13, 2026, Insikt Group documented three separate CopyCop media impersonations targeting the facility ahead of its July 2026 opening. These impersonations fabricated an imminent earthquake risk, cast doubt as to the facility's economic and infrastructure viability, and, most recently, impersonated an official Iranian military communications that justified treating the data center as a legitimate military target. Reach expanded substantially across the three instances, growing from limited initial engagement to over 1.6 million combined views by the third, indicating growing audience viewership as the campaign progressed."

    • PurpleDelta's Fraudulent Employment Operations
      "Insikt Group has identified several clusters of activity linked to PurpleDelta, Recorded Future's designation for North Korean IT workers, comprising multiple operators likely based in China. Between late 2024 and early 2025, one cluster applied to jobs at over 1,100 companies, primarily in the software and technology, staffing and consulting, and healthcare and biotechnology sectors. PurpleDelta operators maintained at least 22 fabricated personas across multiple clusters, some of which were supported by AI-generated profile photos, custom-configured ChatGPT assistants, and identity documents sourced from an illicit ID-generation service, and were highly likely to be actively employed by at least ten organizations. PurpleDelta operators demonstrate a high operational tempo to this day. In some cases, the operators have applied to at least 60 positions per day across multiple job platforms, used multi-account management browsers and separate Google Chrome profiles to manage distinct personas simultaneously, and maintained detailed tracking spreadsheets to coordinate applications across identities."

      "A dataset published on a data-trading forum on 18 August 2026 contains live Stripe API keys for 659 merchant accounts, along with roughly 35 GB of customer and payment data pulled from them. Ransomnews analysed the files offline and reported the exposure to Stripe before publishing. Stripe itself was not compromised. The keys belong to merchants. The listing went up in the early hours of 18 August under a headline claiming a breach of Stripe itself. That framing is wrong, and it matters, so it is worth dealing with first. Nothing in the dataset indicates any failure of Stripe’s own systems. What the files show is 659 merchants whose secret API keys ended up in someone else’s hands, after which that person used the keys the way any developer would, and pulled down everything the API would return."

    • Beware Of Phishing Emails Disguised As Requests To Review Quotes (PhantomStealer)
      "The AhnLab SEcurity intelligence Center (ASEC) recently identified a phishing email campaign that disguised itself as a request to review a quote. The threat actor impersonated a sales team member at a specific overseas company and, by claiming that a previous quote needed to be revised and product versions verified, tricked recipients into opening the Attachment. The email contained a malicious file named “7200_Quantum_Enterprise_LLC_SSO-0661.GZ” , which contained a malicious compressed file."

    • Beware Of Phishing Emails Disguised As Transaction Receipts
      "Recently, the AhnLab SEcurity intelligence Center (ASEC) identified instances of phishing emails that were disguised as transaction receipts. The emails impersonated employees of a specific US company. The body of the message stated that a transaction receipt was attached and asked the recipient to review it and confirm whether funds had been deposited into their account, thereby enticing the recipient to open the Attachment."

    • Attack Cases For Domestic Web Servers Running SoftEther VPN In Korea
      "The AhnLab SEcurity intelligence Center (ASEC) recently identified attack cases in which attackers targeted web servers in Korea to install SoftEther VPN. Attack cases involving the installation of SoftEther VPN, an open-source VPN, were previously discussed in the 2024 ASEC blog post titled “Analysis of Attack Cases Targeting ERP Servers in Korea to Install SoftEther VPN” [1]. The threat actor currently carrying out similar attacks exhibits the same characteristics as the case described above and is therefore classified as Larva-26010. It appears that the threat actor ultimately installed the SoftEther VPN service to use the infected systems as VPN servers."

    • Clop Returns With Custom Implant In Mass-Extortion Campaign
      "ReliaQuest identified a custom web shell highly likely linked to "Clop" (aka Cl0p), a financially motivated ransomware and extortion group known for mass-exploiting enterprise software vulnerabilities. The web shell is deployed after exploitation of CVE-2026-12569 (CVSS 9.3) in PTC Windchill, an industry-standard product lifecycle management (PLM) platform used by manufacturing enterprises worldwide to store engineering data and product designs. The web shell gives attackers a direct path to credential theft and large-scale data exfiltration, with no additional tooling required. Unlike generic command shells, this implant decrypts credentials, delivers malware, and maps stored files for exfiltration."

    • The Mistake That Exposed a Global Cyber Crime Operation
      "Most cyber crime investigations reveal the aftermath of an attack. Few reveal the attackers themselves. That’s what makes Check Point Research‘s latest investigation into StopAndProtect so unusual. While analyzing a newly identified cyber crime operation, researchers uncovered a series of operational security (OPSEC) mistakes that exposed the attackers’ own infrastructure including: victim logs, screenshots, source code, internal management tools, and evidence of a campaign impacting more than 5,000 infected computers worldwide. The investigation also uncovered files referencing close to 2,000 compromised WordPress domains, providing a rare look inside how a modern cyber criminal operation is built and managed."

    • Living Off The Cloud: A Python Implant Hiding Its Entire C2 Inside Microsoft 365 & Azure
      "The Ontinue Cyber Defense Center uncovered an undocumented Python implant framework while investigating an ongoing campaign in July 2026. We track it internally as TWINLOOT, named after its SharePoint C2 folder ‘TwinLoot’. TWINLOOT is a modular, PyArmor-hardened Python implant designed to operate its entire command-and-control infrastructure inside trusted Microsoft services. Tasking flows through SharePoint Online file dead-drops via the Microsoft Graph API. Interactive operator access routes through WebRTC DataChannels relayed by Microsoft Teams TURN servers. Graph API traffic is driven through a headless instance of the victim’s own Edge browser, making it indistinguishable from legitimate user activity."

    • Beware The Ransomware Rescuer: Ransom Busters
      "The GuidePoint Research and Intelligence Team (GRIT) has responded to several recent ransomware incidents in which victims received an unexpected email from an ostensible third-party entity referring to itself as “Ransom Busters.” In these messages, the third-party offers to help the victim recover from ransomware attack. This immediately stands out as anomalous. While cybersecurity firms commonly reach out to ransomware victims to offer consulting or recovery services, it is generally done only after the attack becomes public knowledge. This ostensible third-party’s insight into an attack that was not yet public is alarming. It raises the question how “Ransom Busters” could know about the incident at all."

    • StubMaker RubyGems Campaign Delivers a Windows Infostealer
      "On August 15, 2026, we discovered newly-published RubyGems packages that installs a multi-stage Windows infostealer malware. This new malware harvests browser credentials, cryptocurrency wallets, seed phrases, and Telegram data. All of the malicious Rubygems packages appear to be typosquats of popular Ruby dependencies, but rather than the clever SEO-fueled typosquats we've seen from other threat actors (e.g. events-channel imitating the popular Node.js events module), they're all clumsy typos. But don't let that fool you into not taking them seriously. The threat actor still managed hundreds of downloads before the packages were taken down."

      "The Trellix Advanced Research Center has been actively monitoring dark web forums and criminal communication channels for emerging threats tied to artificial intelligence (AI). What we are observing in 2026 is not speculative – it is operational. Underground threat actors are no longer simply discussing AI as a future capability. They are advertising, selling, and deploying AI-enhanced tools and services with increasing sophistication and commercial maturity. This blog documents the findings from our underground intelligence collection efforts, spanning autonomous kill-chain planning engines, uncensored AI-as-a-service platforms, AI-enhanced malware crypters, stolen API credential markets, and AI-assisted insider threat tooling."

      "Rapid7 researchers identified an exposed web directory on infrastructure used to support a cryptocurrency fraud operation. The server contained raw phone-number datasets, account-validation tools, enriched lead records, phishing panels, voice-dialing scripts, fake wallet applications, persistence mechanisms, and Telegram exfiltration code. Among the artifacts was evidence that the operator relied on AI coding assistants throughout the campaign's development; recovered prompts, shell history, and project files show AI being used to package Electron applications, obfuscate code, troubleshoot builds, modify phishing infrastructure, and prepare malware for distribution."

      "IT systems at the University of Texas (UT) San Antonio have been taken offline following a cyber incident, causing significant disruption to student registrations and payments ahead of the start of term this week. A statement released by university leaders on August 17 revealed that the institution had identified “attempted unauthorized activity” at the edge of its network, before reaching core systems. At this point, University Technology Solutions (UTS) took action with expert partners to contain the activity, resulting in some systems being taken offline so a thorough evaluation of the environment can take place and to assess whether additional protections need to be implemented."

But Danielle Lewan, Clint Howard II, and 11 long-time chief information security officers (CISOs) arrive with cameras rolling and a different agenda: turning their breach-response stories into compelling television. Last year, Lewan launched Red Mirror Studios, an independent film studio dedicated to cybersecurity alongside Howard, co-founder and chief creative officer. She founded the studio after working to produce a different docuseries titled "CISO: The Worst Job I Ever Wanted," while director of global marketing at Nagomi Security in 2025."

    • A Hollowed Out Data Layer Is Making CISOs Fly Blind Into AI Attacks
      "The security industry is currently transitioning to an era where both offense and defense are AI-led, and every SOC operates at machine speed. However, what most CISOs have not yet reckoned with is that the AI defenders they are about to deploy will inherit a data foundation that two years of ingestion cost pressure has quietly hollowed out. The result is a security industry heading into an AI era with less visibility than it had five years ago. In the 2026 SANS SOC Survey, 24% of security leaders named lack of enterprise-wide visibility as their single biggest barrier to effective security operations, ranking it above staffing and automation gaps. That gap is widening at the exact moment offensive AI is closing the distance between attackers and defenders."

    • 2026 Mid-Market Ransomware Report
      "The way ransomware gets covered centers on the biggest names and the highest ransoms. That framing leaves the impression that ransomware is mainly an enterprise problem. The data says otherwise. Across three and a half years of attacks, from 2023 through the first half of 2026 in North America and Europe, roughly three in four ransomware victims with a known revenue figure were mid-market companies earning $10 million to $1 billion a year. This is the first time the Black Kite Research Group has studied the mid-market as its own segment, rather than as companies scattered through larger studies."

    • CISO Conversations: Nico Waisman – From Self-Taught Hacker To AI-Driven Offensive Security At XBOW
      "“I don’t think I ever chose a career in cybersecurity. It chose me.” Well, we’ll see… Nico Waisman was born and still lives in Argentina. If what he says is accurate, it suggests he was born in 1982; one year before a seven-year period of military dictatorship in Argentina came to an end. Argentine youngsters in the 1980s lived in a time of youthful rebelliousness against the law and the establishment, lingering after the dictatorships. For Waisman, this youthful rebelliousness turned toward emerging technology. He became fascinated by the idea of being able to subvert this tech into doing something he wanted it to do. In short, he became a young hacker – but it was the challenge and enjoyment of doing it rather than any desire to make money or cause harm from it that drove him."

    • AI-Driven Vulnerability Surge Breaks The Traditional Patching Model
      "Recent analysis from Rapid7 demonstrates the fallacy of defenders continuing to rely on patching their way out of problems. “Q2 2026 was not just another busy quarter in cyber. It felt more like a stress test of the way we currently manage exposure. Traditional patch cycles are being overwhelmed by the sheer volume of vulnerabilities and attacker speed and precision,” writes Rapid7 in its latest report titled ‘the compression era’. “Vulnerabilities are being disclosed at higher volume, proof-of-concept code is appearing faster, exploitability is being tested earlier, and attackers are getting better at turning public information into operational access.” SecurityWeek spoke to Christiaan Beek, Rapid7’s VP of cyber intelligence for a deeper understanding of the cause and effect of this stress. But let’s be clear from the start: the compressive force behind this stress test is artificial intelligence (AI)."

    • How QR-Code Phishing Can Slip Past Corporate Security Measures
      "Familiarity might breed contempt. But in the world of cybersecurity, it also breeds complacency, which can be a lot more dangerous. So it is with QR codes, which have become a common sight on menus, lampposts and parking meters – and, increasingly, in emails over recent years. The challenge is that they’re also a great way to disguise malicious links, bypass some traditional corporate security filters, and to move the interaction from a corporate computer to a personal phone with fewer security controls. Attackers will continue to experiment and innovate with new ways to avoid detection. And new “quishing” techniques to snare unwitting employees. Here’s what you need to understand to keep your organization safe."
