Multiple WordPress plugins from ShapedPlugin were compromised in a supply chain attack after unknown threat actors managed to tamper with the official release channels and push backdoor code. "Attackers compromised the vendor's build and distribution pipeline, injecting backdoor code into Pro plugin releases distributed through official licensed update channels," Wordfence said in an analysis
Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11 version 26H2 will be the next feature update and that devices running Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2 will be able to upgrade using a small enablement package. [...]
A vulnerability chain dubbed AutoJack in Microsoft's AutoGen Studio interface for prototyping AI agents could let attackers manipulate an agent into executing arbitrary commands on its host system simply by visiting a malicious webpage. [...]
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of four vulnerabilities in Dify, an open-source agentic workflow platform with more than 146,000 GitHub stars, that could allow attackers to stealthily read artificial intelligence (AI) conversions from other customers' applications without requiring authentication. The vulnerabilities have been collectively codenamed DifyTap by Zafran Security.
A heap over-read in the Squid web proxy can leak another user's cleartext HTTP request, including any credentials or session tokens it carries, to anyone already allowed to send traffic through the same proxy. The bug traces to a 1997 FTP-parsing change and is still live in Squid's default configuration. Researchers at Calif.io disclosed it in June and named it Squidbleed (
Webshells have been popular for a long time. We already covered this topic across multiple diaries[1][2]. I spent some time to track them[3] and slighly paid less attention to them but today I found another one. It seems to be a new player (pushed on Github two months ago). 
Attackers no longer need to sift through massive credential dumps. They can pay others to do it for them. Flare explores how an emerging underground market searches stolen credential databases for specific companies, domains, and accounts. [...]
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new campaign that delivers CastleStealer by means of a previously unreported malware loader dubbed OXLOADER. According to Elastic Security Labs, the campaign leverages malicious Google Ads as a starting point to distribute the malware. Evidence indicates that the threat actor is likely Russian-speaking and financially motivated, owing to the
Google has set September 30, 2026, as the day it begins enforcing Android developer verification in the first four countries, and the major device-maker app stores are in from the start. On that date, certified Android phones in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand will block normal installs of apps whose developers have not registered an identity with Google, whether the app
Earlier this month, I spoke at the Gartner Security Risk Management Summit about a blind spot most security programs are still not accounting for - how attackers are circumventing AI security programs by using legacy infrastructure to hijack AI agents. AI adoption is moving faster than security programs can account for. Roughly 71% of organizations are piloting AI agents across their
It’s Monday again. This week’s threat list looks painfully familiar: abused integrations, fake tools, poisoned websites, ransomware crews trying to shut down security tools, and mobile malware asking for way too much control. The annoying part is how little of this feels new. Weak credentials, sketchy downloads, browser extensions with too much access, and WordPress sites are used to push more
A Kaspersky researcher analyzes a global malicious campaign that distributes VBS scripts via WhatsApp delivering a UEMS RMM agent through a multi-stage infection chain.
Canada's spy service got a judge's permission to reach into infected servers, home routers, and IoT gear sitting on Canadian soil and neutralize two foreign-run botnets. The Federal Court released a public version of the ruling on June 15. It is the first time the Canadian Security Intelligence Service has used its threat reduction warrant powers this way. The warrant let CSIS alter,
A new malware family is turning forgotten home routers into a distributed reconnaissance and proxy network, not the DDoS botnet these devices usually end up in. QiAnXin's XLab calls it AryStinger and counts at least 4,300 infected routers, a total it says is still rising. The distinction matters. AryStinger exists for the stage of an attack that comes before the break-in. Infected
A new report from INTERPOL has revealed a "dramatic increase" in cybercrime in Asia and the South Pacific, fueled by rapid digitalization, internet penetration, new technologies, organized criminal networks, and a disparity in cybersecurity maturity. According to INTERPOL's 2025/2026 Asia and South Pacific Cyberthreat Assessment Report, phishing has emerged as the most widespread and
