During the Splunk .conf conference, Cisco's Encrypted Visibility Engine (EVE) in Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) produced a previously unseen detection of Flawed AMMYY, a RAT built from leaked AMMYY source code, alongside the usual detections of Upatre, Xpiro and Quasar. Detections arrived in HTTP/HTTPS pairs with identical timestamps from …
F5 Labs published research on SparkRAT, a freely available, Go-based open-source Remote Access Trojan with a C2 server and builds for Windows, Linux and macOS. Public reporting since January 2023 shows use by a widening set of actors: Chinese-speaking groups, Winnti (APT41), Patchwork, TAG-100, suspected UAC-0194 against Ukraine, and Cybe…
ESET researchers observed the Russia-aligned group UAC-0099 embedding a decoy request for guidance on building a nuclear weapon in a comment inside a VBScript used in the early stages of an attack on a target in Ukraine. The comment was meant to trigger the safety guardrails of an LLM-powered code scanner so that it stops inspecting the f…
On 19 October 2026 an attacker used a hijacked contributor's GitHub account to replace the download archives on five existing releases (v0.11.0 to v0.15.0) of OVHcloud CLI. The swapped files were a build designed to steal secrets stored on the disk of any machine that ran it. They were live from 12:47 to 14:21 UTC (up to 94 minutes) for m…
Forescout Research - Vedere Labs disclosed ROMULUS, a ClickFix delivery platform that uses bogus landing pages with ClickFix-style lures to trick users into running malicious commands that infect their own machines. It is used to distribute malware such as Legion Loader (also tracked as Satacom downloader, CurlyGate and RobotDropper). For…
Attackers began exploiting Plex2Shell, a chain of four Plex Media Server vulnerabilities, within about a day of researcher Zach Main publishing technical details and PoC code on October 16, 2026. A researcher running an internet-facing honeypot observed the first in-the-wild exploitation on October 17. The attackers deployed an XMRig-base…
Between April and July 2026, the threat actor UNC7017 tampered with the AOMEI Backupper update infrastructure several times to deliver the CrossRoad downloader and the ShinyRoad modular backdoor. Each tampering window lasted only five to ten minutes before reverting to authentic files. This made the campaign hard to detect and suggests it…
Bitdefender documented Midnight Mimosa, an Android malware campaign that embeds a platform-signed malicious system app in the firmware of low-cost, MediaTek-based handsets and counterfeit flagship models before they reach buyers. Thousands of infected devices were observed in more than 150 countries over roughly two years. The implant dri…
Researchers at Hacktron disclosed a chain in Metabase Cloud that began with a bypass of the sanitization Metabase applies to H2 connection strings and ended in exposure of secrets belonging to other tenants. Metabase strips or rejects INIT= in the H2 URL, but the INIT value could be supplied in a separate details field that was never sani…
On August 28, 2026, an attacker published 10 malicious versions of the npm package @7nohe/openapi-react-query-codegen (about 671K downloads/month) without stealing any credentials. They abused the repository's GitHub Actions release.yml workflow, which had an issuecomment trigger with no author-association gate. Commenting npm publish on …
F5 Labs, using Efflux sensor telemetry, reports a campaign that began on 2025-06-08. One actor is exploiting TP-Link AX21 routers (CVE-2023-1389, command injection in the country query parameter) and Raisecom web interfaces (CVE-2024-7120) to deliver a new malware family named NoBooze1. Four source IPs and three stage-one hosts were rotat…
FortiGuard Labs describes a large-scale, global campaign that uses heavily obfuscated JScript droppers to launch an AutoIt/Lua-based loader with low detection rates. The loader delivers several popular RATs and infostealers, including a version of Snake Keylogger. The infection chain relies on business email compromise tactics, impersonat…
Kaspersky found the first documented Android malware targeting automotive head units, discovered in June 2026. It is a multi-stage downloader whose ultimate purpose is ad fraud and a residential proxy botnet. It spread through the built-in updater (TWCore, package com.tw.core) of DoFun head unit firmware, which installs APKs pushed over a…
Between April and July 2026, a threat actor tracked as UNC7017 compromised AOMEI update and notification infrastructure and used it to push malware to users of AOMEI Backupper. The attackers briefly altered two configuration files and restored them within minutes to evade detection. The campaign was uncovered by ManageEngine's Threat Anal…
An attacker pushed forged commits to the default branches of two unrelated GitHub projects, hugo-paper and mevn-cli. The commits add a preinstall hook (scripts/preinstall.js) that downloads and silently runs a second-stage script from buildwithknexus.xyz during npm install or bun install. The commits copy the author, date and message of t…
F5 Labs, using Efflux sensor telemetry, analyzed December 2025 exploitation of React2Shell (CVE-2025-55182), a CVSS 10.0 unsafe deserialization RCE in React Server Components. It was disclosed on 3 December 2025 and rose to second place among the most exploited CVEs, behind only CVE-2017-9841. Within days of disclosure, actors moved from …
Unit 42 researchers found that in default AWS AgentCore Harness deployments, prompt injection can steer the agent's built-in shell tool to exfiltrate plaintext credentials resolved from AgentCore Identity. The shell tool is enabled by default and runs as root, in the same UID as the harness runtime (PID 1, python3.10 -m loopy.server). Tha…
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…
On August 20, 2026, a compromised release of the Rust crate arrayref (0.3.10, about 245 million all-time downloads) appeared on crates.io. It added a dependency on the typosquatted crate proc-macro1 1.0.107, whose build script downloads and runs a remote binary at compile time. The maintainer account droundy appears to have been compromis…
SafeDep found a remote access implant in mathmain, an npm package that copies mathjs, and in two sibling packages, mathsbase and math-universe. The malicious code ships AES-256-GCM encrypted and activates only when lusolve() is called with matrix data whose LU lower factor serializes to a specific password. Once decrypted, the implant tak…
