Siemens warned customers that attackers are actively exploiting CVE-2026-110936 (CVSS 8.4), a DLL side-loading vulnerability in Siemens Software Center, to distribute malware. The activity is attributed to the Romulus multi-platform ClickFix campaign. Romulus is a server hosting panel identified by Forescout researchers on October 14 that…
FortiGuard Labs analyzed a TrickBot variant that carries command-and-control (C2) traffic over DNS tunneling, embedding encoded data in DNS queries and responses, instead of the HTTP used by earlier variants. The malware persists through Windows Task Scheduler, stores its configuration in NTFS Alternate Data Streams, and hinders analysis …
A supply chain campaign tracked as UNC7017 hijacked the update infrastructure of AOMEI Technology between April and July 2026 to distribute the CROSSROAD downloader and the SHINYROAD backdoor through AOMEI Backupper and AnyViewer update workflows. The attackers tampered with server configurations only briefly, then restored legitimate con…
TrustedSec (author Brandon Colley) publishes practical guidance on building an effective logging, auditing, monitoring and alerting program for Active Directory (AD).

An active supply chain attack is abusing a compromised credential for the ConnectWise Cloud Backup (formerly SkyKick) Microsoft 365 OAuth application, giving unknown actors access to customer tenants. Huntress confirmed unauthorized sign-ins in 173 partner/customer tenants, and Microsoft reports broad successful service principal authenti…
Between May and July 2026, attackers tracked by Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) as UNC7017 altered files on AOMEI's own update servers for windows of 5 to 10 minutes. Any copy of AOMEI Backupper that checked for updates during a window downloaded and ran a backdoor. GTIG, Mandiant and ManageEngine's Threat Analysis Lab disclosed t…
ESET documented the evolution of MATCHBOIL, a custom C downloader used by the Russia-aligned cyberespionage group UAC-0099. Samples span April 2024 to April 2026, although CERT-UA first documented the malware in August 2025. Each iteration became more sophisticated, with new obfuscation, sandbox checks and persistence methods. All victims…
Acronis Threat Research Unit found that the Gentlemen ransomware operation is using the BYOVD (bring your own vulnerable driver) technique with legitimate Lenovo and Safetica kernel drivers to terminate endpoint security software before encrypting files. Two custom dropper samples were recovered from a recent incident. They install the dr…
SafeDep flagged the malicious npm package ulid-xyz in June 2026. It typosquats ulidx and is a cross-platform remote access trojan. It is delivered through a three-layer transitive dependency chain: ioredis-xyz (a clone of the legitimate ioredis client) depends on redis-type-xyz (an empty manifest posing as Redis OM), which in version 1.10…

It was published at 01:12:07 UTC on 8 October and flagged by SafeDep eight minutes later. The attacker used a repository administrator account to commit the payload to main through the GitHu…
Kaspersky GERT reports that the NightEagle APT (also tracked as APT-Q-95), active since at least 2023 and previously focused on Asia, is now attacking businesses in Russia. The attackers usually gain access through compromised valid credentials on corporate VPNs, connecting from Russian IPs tied to Cloudflare WARP tunnels and from Europea…
Researchers at SafeDep identified imgdecode, a malicious npm package tied to the long-running MALFEX supply chain campaign first documented by Checkmarx and CloudSEK. Published on September 30, 2026 by user "malfexteste8", it has been downloaded 979 times and was still available at the time of reporting (latest version 1.0.3). MALFEX has …
Kaspersky researchers report that the APT group Mirage Kitten has moved from native C/C++/Go malware to Node.js and JavaScript implants, NodeRabbit and PollCat. Both are cross-platform RATs delivered through spear-phishing by fake recruiters on LinkedIn and other job platforms, using trojanized coding-challenge archives hosted on Amazon S…
Qilin and Settra ransomware groups are actively exploiting CVE-2026-0257, an authentication bypass in PAN-OS GlobalProtect and Prisma Access disclosed in May 2026, according to ReliaQuest. Because access arrives through the victim's own VPN, it can resemble legitimate remote work and go unnoticed until credential theft, lateral movement, …
SentinelOne reports observing APT29 (Midnight Blizzard / Cozy Bear, Russia's SVR) running the CaptiveCrunch campaign, disclosed by Microsoft in July 2026, across multiple customer environments in three regions. The operation abuses captive-portal behaviour and forged name resolution to push fake browser updater downloads to roaming Window…
SafeDep reports that the npm package imgdecode (versions 1.0.0-1.0.3, publisher malfexteste8) is part of the MALFEX campaign, which targets Windows developers. After npm removed earlier JavaScript loaders, the operator moved the loader logic into a compiled Node.js native addon (a Windows DLL). On require('imgdecode') from an interactive …
