Beyond The Vault: What Banking Sites Quietly Share Before You Ever Log In
"Banks present themselves as the most careful custodians of personal and financial data. Customers expect that trust to extend to every digital interaction including public websites and online application flows. Yet Jscrambler’s Security Research Team found that many banking experiences transmit sensitive information to third-party advertising, analytics, and personalization platforms. In many cases, the data leaves the browser before the user has made a consent choice. In others, it continues to flow even after users have rejected tracking technologies."

When Your AI Reviewer Works For The Attacker: A Confused-Deputy Bug In Microsoft's Azure DevOps MCP Server
"An invisible comment in an Azure DevOps pull request can turn a developer's own AI agent against them. Microsoft ships an official Azure DevOps MCP server that lets AI agents read and act on Azure DevOps (pull requests, pipelines, wikis, work items) on the user's behalf. An attacker with access to a single project can hide instructions inside an HTML comment, invisible in the Azure DevOps UI, delivered verbatim into the agent's context. When a victim asks their agent to review the PR, the hidden instructions hijack the agent's goal. Because the agent is holding the victim's credentials, it performs actions across projects the attacker can't reach on their own."

HermeticReader: The Vulnerability That Turned Adobe's 300M-Install Extension Into a Full WhatsApp Takeover
"A single click on a malicious web page could turn the Adobe Acrobat Chrome extension, installed on roughly 329 million browsers, into a one-click WhatsApp exfiltration tool, quietly handing a visitor's entire WhatsApp clear-text chats, contacts, and private info to the attacker's hands. Here at Guardio Labs we uncovered a chain of vulnerabilities in the extension that compounds into a single powerful cross-origin exfiltration chain. A working, runtime-confirmed exploit followed within hours, thanks to our AI harness specially built to secure the browser extensions domain. Adobe's response to our full disclosure was phenomenal: acknowledged, patched, and shipped over a single weekend, with CVE-2026-48294 issued days later."

Langflow Exploited To Build Custom DDoS Gafgyt Botnets
"The cybersecurity world spent the last few years worrying about advanced AI threats — such as automated phishing, deepfakes, and autonomous malware. However, threat actors are proving that their immediate goals are much more pragmatic. They don't just want to manipulate AI; they want to hijack its underlying infrastructure to fuel traditional, high-volume cybercrime. Recent threat intelligence reveals a fascinating intersection of modern AI deployment and classic botnet architecture: Attackers are actively exploiting CVE-2025-3248 (an RCE vulnerability in Langflow) to drop a highly customized variant of the veteran Gafgyt/BASHLITE DDoS bot. In this blog post, I’ll describe how attackers are actively exploiting CVE-2025-3248 to turn cutting-edge AI frameworks into brute-force network weapons."

The Perfect Heist: NuGet Typosquat Targets Betting Platform To Rig Results
"The JFrog Security Research team has discovered and disclosed a typosquatted NuGet package named Newtonsoftt.Json.Net. Note the double t and the .Net suffix. This package has been masquerading as the popular Newtonsoft.Json library while quietly shipping a trojanized fork. The trojan rigs Digitain, an online betting platform, and in later generations, exfiltrates rigged round results to an attacker-controlled server, utilizing the header X-Seq-ApiKey: theperfectheist2025. The author published seven versions under the same package, all sharing the same target-specific payload."

Denying The Worm: Detecting SANDWORM_MODE And The Emerging Class Of AI Toolchain Supply Chain Attacks
"In February 2026, Socket.dev published research on a multi-stage npm supply chain worm operating under the internal flag SANDWORM_MODE. The campaign spanned 19 malicious packages in total across two unique publisher aliases and demonstrated a new class of supply chain attacks that targeted AI-augmented development workflows. Many recently observed supply chain attacks target build outputs, inject static backdoors, or conduct mass credential harvesting, but SANDWORM_MODE was unique in its exploitation of the runtime behaviors of AI coding assistants, CI automation, and LLM toolchains."

Inside a TrickBot Variant Using DNS Tunneling For C2
"FortiGuard Labs recently captured several malicious samples that were sending malformed DNS queries. After conducting an in-depth analysis, I determined that these samples are TrickBot variants that use DNS tunneling to communicate with their command-and-control (C2) servers. TrickBot is a modular malware family that FortiGuard Labs has repeatedly captured over the past decade. Its modular architecture enables it to extend its capabilities by downloading and executing additional modules on compromised devices. Previously observed TrickBot variants primarily relied on HTTP to communicate with its C2 servers."

Analysis Of Kimsuky's Attack On a South Korean Groupware Vendor Using a New Gomir Family Variant
"The ENKI WhiteHat Threat Research Team tracked a campaign by Kimsuky, a North Korea-linked threat group, that infiltrated the internal networks of South Korean groupware vendors between 2025 and early 2026. Our analysis revealed that Kimsuky gained control of internet-facing servers through vulnerability exploitation and spear-phishing, and deployed Gomir and its variants. Kimsuky developed Gomir variants with significantly altered C2 communication methods to evade detection, including leveraging Google Drive as a C2 channel and implementing a new custom protocol. We also observed indicators of aggressive lateral movement, including compromising customer servers that used the affected vendors' groupware and tampering with groupware login pages to harvest employee credentials."

Device Code Phishing: Turning a Convenience Feature Into An MFA Bypass
"For years, the advice to users was simple: turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA), and most account takeovers can be prevented. That advice still holds, and MFA still blocks most password-based attacks. The problem is that attackers adapt, and the more an organization relies on a single control, the more attention that control attracts. The first big shift was adversary-in-the-middle phishing, where a proxy site sits between the user and Microsoft and relays the login in real time to capture the session cookie. Device code phishing is the next step, and in some ways, it is cleaner for the attacker. There is no fake login site to build or to get blocked, and there is nothing visually wrong for the user to notice, because the page they enter their password on really is Microsoft. The only unusual thing is a short code and a plausible reason to enter it."

OpenAI Says Its AI Models Hacked Hugging Face During Testing
"OpenAI says its AI models, including GPT‑5.6 Sol and a pre-release model, hacked into the Hugging Face artificial intelligence repository while being tested in a sandboxed testing environment. As the company explained, instead of focusing on finding a solution for the ExploitGym public AI cybersecurity benchmark on their own, the AI models tried to cheat by stealing the test solutions by hacking Hugging Face after inferring that they could get the test solutions directly from its production database. In one of their attempts, the OpenAI agents chained zero-day vulnerabilities and used stolen credentials to find a remote code execution attack vector while trying to gain access to Hugging Face servers."

When Identity Verification Fails: Lessons From a Real-World SIM Swap And Near Account Takeover
"For years, organizations have encouraged users to enable multi-factor authentication (MFA), use one-time passwords (OTPs), and protect their accounts with passcodes. Those controls remain important. However, a recent attack against my own wireless services account demonstrated that point-in-time authentication is no longer sufficient against determined identity-focused adversaries. What began as a seemingly routine customer service call quickly evolved into a coordinated attack that combined social engineering, identity impersonation, stolen personal information, SIM swapping, session hijacking, and unauthorized account changes."

Windows LegacyHive Zero-Day Flaw Gets Free, Unofficial Patches
"Free unofficial patches are available for a recently disclosed Windows zero-day flaw that allows attackers to escalate privileges on up-to-date Windows systems. The vulnerability (dubbed LegacyHive and without a CVE ID for easy tracking) was found by a security researcher using the "Nightmare Eclipse" handle in the Windows User Profile Service. Nightmare Eclipse disclosed it the day Microsoft released its July 2026 Patch Tuesday updates, together with a stripped proof-of-concept exploit designed to make it harder for threat actors to weaponize this security issue in attacks."

Using LLMs To Find And Prioritize Vulnerabilities Is No Easy Task
"Current methods of prioritizing vulnerabilities are falling flat, with too many false positives, poor prioritization, and a failure to take into account reachability. So far, large language models (LLMs) have not really helped. In tests of more than a dozen application-scanning tools, more than 60% of flagged vulnerabilities continue to be false positives, are in unreachable code, or are low severity, says Arshan Dabirsiaghi, chief technology officer and co-founder at Pixee, an AI-powered application-security (AppSec) startup. In a presentation at Black Hat USA in August, Dabirsiaghi plans to detail results from those tests and show that the lack of context in stock models means that AI models are not the solution."

When The AI Edits Its Own Trust Boundary: Remote Code Execution Vulnerability In AWS's Agentic IDE
"AI coding agents are powerful, highly capable, and equipped with risky tools, such as the ability to execute shell commands. Which raises the question, how can we protect our environment from them? The answer is built around a simple safety promise, the risky actions happen only when a human approves them. The user stays in the loop, reviews what the agent wants to do, and clicks “allow.” That approval step is the security boundary. We found a vulnerability in Kiro, AWS’s agentic IDE, that breaks this promise. By planting hidden instructions in a web page Kiro reads, an attacker can make Kiro rewrite its own MCP (Model Context Protocol) server configuration file and gain arbitrary code execution on the developer’s machine. No suspicious approval prompt is ever shown to the user. All the developer asked Kiro to do was perform a legitimate action."

Open-Source Android AI Agents Could Let Invisible Screen Text Run Code On Host PCs
"An Android app that can draw over other windows and write to shared storage can slip instructions to the AI agent driving that phone, in text no human eye will ever see. Two more steps, and the same app is running commands on the PC driving the agent. Researchers demonstrated that chain, plus six other attacks, against five open-source mobile agent frameworks: AppAgent, AppAgentX, Mobile-Agent-v3, Open-AutoGLM, and MobA. Everyone fell to at least six of the seven."

Who Needs a Job? DPRK ClickFake Interview Campaign Drops PylangGhost And GolangGhost RATs
"This article by SOCRadar Threat Research Unit (STRU) analyzes the latest ClickFake Interview campaign, a North Korean social engineering operation that targets cryptocurrency and Web3 professionals with fake job interviews. Operators posing as recruiters walk targets through a bogus skill assessment that ends in a copy-and-paste command, delivering the PylangGhost RAT on Windows and the GolangGhost RAT on macOS. North Korea, officially the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), is well known for their financially motivated cyber operations. To circumvent international sanctions, they persistently attack organizations to steal funds and support the regime’s missile, nuclear, and espionage programs. From historically targeting SWIFT transactions and ATMs, they now focus on stealing crypto assets, with $643M stolen so far this year."

A year of open-source and multilateral reporting has since reinforced the model mapped, one built on infiltrating global hiring pipelines and blending of full spectrum cyber operations. New DTEX i³ research, expanded on by reporting through April 2026, picks up where the employment story ends. It follows the money through how payments are reported, who controls the process, and how funds move through internal DPRK channels tied to state activity. At the center of the research is a new interactive map that traces the money through the DPRK system, providing context to where it ultimately leads."

Cato CTRL Insights: How One Threat Actor Turned Frontier AI Into An Offensive Platform
"A Russian-speaking threat actor known as “Trim” has spent the better part of 2026 systematically dismantling the guardrails on publicly available frontier AI models and rebuilding them as offensive tools. What started in March as a knowledge-sharing post on a Russian cybercrime forum detailing how to break Claude Opus into writing malware, had evolved by June into a fully productized, commercially marketed AI-powered penetration testing platform. Trim didn’t need a vulnerability to exploit. He didn’t need to build a novel AI, steal model weights, or compromise a datacenter. He simply picked powerful models off the shelf, figured out how to talk to them in the right way, and turned them into weapons. His story is not just one threat actor’s journey, it is a blueprint that the entire criminal underground is beginning to follow, and in his latest post he shares he is also utilizing a modified system prompt leaked from Fable!"

Nobody Was Checking The Drives That Encrypt Your Laptop
"A drive ships with a label promising hardware encryption. You plug it in, set a password, and trust the chip inside to handle the rest. Millions of laptops and workstations run this way, on solid-state drives built to the TCG Opal2 standard. Milan Brož and three colleagues bought 38 of those drives and ran them through a test bench. Brož maintains cryptsetup, the tool that configures disk encryption on most Linux systems. The drives came from Samsung, Western Digital, Micron, Kioxia, and others, a mix of new stock and secondhand units pulled from laptops. The team treated each one as a black box and sent it only the commands the Opal2 documentation defines."

PR3TACK Preemptive Framework Maps Threats Before Attackers Use Them
"Defensive frameworks in cybersecurity record what attackers have already done. Analysts study a breach, document the method, and build detections around confirmed activity. This cycle leaves a gap between the moment an attacker invents a technique and the moment defenders learn to catch it. PR3TACK, the Preemptive Tactics and Countermeasures Knowledgebase, aims to close that gap. Vishal Thakur of Atlassian built the open framework that catalogs plausible attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures that remain unobserved in the wild."

Cheating Behaviour In Frontier Model Evaluations
"Can you trust an AI model to do what you intended? This is a central question both for those deploying AI systems and for those seeking to evaluate their capabilities. In deployment, a model that pursues a goal through unintended or unauthorised means may cause harm, particularly in high-stakes use cases. In an AI capability evaluation, the same behaviour may undermine the validity of the result: the model may appear to demonstrate a capability by completing a difficult task, when it has instead exploited the task or its environment."

2026 Ransomware Report
"Black Kite tracked 7,551 publicly disclosed ransomware victims between April 2025 and March 2026. That's a 24.9% increase over the previous reporting period, and the fourth straight year that ransomware disclosures have set a new high. The threat actor ecosystem grew right alongside the victim count, reaching 127 active groups by the close of the period and 146 by June 2026. This report analyzes those 7,551 victims by geography, industry, and revenue band, then goes further. It pairs victim data with Black Kite's own security posture signals, captured before disclosure and rechecked after, to show what ransomware groups could already see and what stayed visible once the incident closed. It also maps five distinct actor models operating inside the same 12 months, tracks how trusted vendor platforms became attack paths, and measures where AI is already lowering the cost of running a ransomware operation."

Choose Wisely: AI-Generated Coding Risk Varies, a Lot
"There may not be a clear winner in terms of which AI model is the best or worst for coding, but there are better (and far worse) models for organizations depending on the development environment or framework one codes in. Software governance firm Secure Code Warrior today unveiled its AI Trust Index, a body of data attempting to quantify the risk established via large language model (LLM)-powered coding tools. AI-assisted development has become exceedingly popular at the organizational level, using tools to generate code, test for vulnerabilities, and audit for general integrity. It is by no means a secret that these tools are expensive, while introducing both vulnerabilities and risk, no matter the efficiency gains."

Understanding Illicit Ecosystems: Inside Rehub’s Rise As a Primary Ransomware Marketplace
"Rehub, also known as ReHub or RehubCom, is a Russian-language cybercrime forum founded in August 2025 by a former XSS moderator following its shutdown in the summer of 2025. Rehub dedicates itself to the commercial and marketplace use of ransomware, while its counterpart, DamageLib, serves as a knowledge base archive and exchange. Operating both on Clear Web domains and an onion domain, the forum positions itself as free from state and law enforcement interference, framing existing XSS iterations as compromised. After law enforcement seized the RAMP (RAMP4U) forum in January 2026, Rehub absorbed a significant portion of the displaced cybercriminal community and became one of the primary destinations for ransomware operators."

Volume Is Not Risk: Making Sense Of The “Vulnpocalypse”
"Around 66,000 common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs) are projected to be disclosed this 2026, according to the FIRST 2026 Mid-Year Vulnerability Forecast. Vulnerability researcher Jerry Gamblin revealed that disclosures in the first half of the year ran nearly 50% ahead of the same window in 2025, which itself finished at a record 48,185 CVEs. His analysis draws on National Vulnerability Database (NVD) and CVE Program data. The steep climb from the roughly 40,000 CVEs recorded in 2024 might make the “vulnpocalypse” panic justified."
