The ransomware gang claims to have stolen 3.5TB of data, and told the technology distributor to pay up or suffer a data breach.

### Summary The OpenEXRCore code is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow during a write operation when decompressing ZIPS-packed deep scan-line EXR files with a maliciously forged chunk header. ### Details When parsing `STORAGE_DEEP_SCANLINE` chunks from an EXR file, the following code (from `src/lib/OpenEXRCore/chunk.c`) is used to extract the chunk information: ```cpp if (part->storage_mode == EXR_STORAGE_DEEP_SCANLINE) // SNIP... cinfo->sample_count_data_offset = dataoff; cinfo->sample_count_table_size = (uint64_t) ddata[0]; cinfo->data_offset = dataoff + (uint64_t) ddata[0]; cinfo->packed_size = (uint64_t) ddata[1]; cinfo->unpacked_size = (uint64_t) ddata[2]; // SNIP... ``` By storing this information, the code that will later decompress and reconstruct the chunk bytes, will know how much space the uncompressed data will occupy. This size is carried along in the chain of decoding/decompression...

**Why is this Chrome CVE included in the Security Update Guide?** The vulnerability assigned to this CVE is in Chromium Open Source Software (OSS) which is consumed by Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based). It is being documented in the Security Update Guide to announce that the latest version of Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) is no longer vulnerable. **How can I see the version of the browser?** 1. In your Microsoft Edge browser, click on the 3 dots (...) on the very right-hand side of the window 2. Click on **Help and Feedback** 3. Click on **About Microsoft Edge**

A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Microweber CMS 2.0 allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into user profile fields, leading to arbitrary JavaScript execution in admin browsers.

### Summary When parsing shader nodes in a MTLX file, the MaterialXCore code accesses a potentially null pointer, which can lead to crashes with maliciously crafted files. ### Details In `source/MaterialXCore/Material.cpp`, the following code extracts the output nodes for a given implementation graph: ```cpp InterfaceElementPtr impl = materialNodeDef->getImplementation(); if (impl && impl->isA<NodeGraph>()) { NodeGraphPtr implGraph = impl->asA<NodeGraph>(); for (OutputPtr defOutput : materialNodeDef->getOutputs()) { if (defOutput->getType() == MATERIAL_TYPE_STRING) { OutputPtr implGraphOutput = implGraph->getOutput(defOutput->getName()); for (GraphIterator it = implGraphOutput->traverseGraph().begin(); it != GraphIterator::end(); ++it) { ElementPtr upstreamElem = it.getU...

### Summary When parsing shader nodes in a MTLX file, the MaterialXCore code accesses a potentially null pointer, which can lead to crashes with maliciously crafted files. ### Details In `src/MaterialXCore/Material.cpp`, in function `getShaderNodes`, the following code fetches the output nodes for a given `nodegraph` input node: ```cpp // SNIP... else if (input->hasNodeGraphString()) { // Check upstream nodegraph connected to the input. // If no explicit output name given then scan all outputs on the nodegraph. ElementPtr parent = materialNode->getParent(); NodeGraphPtr nodeGraph = parent->getChildOfType<NodeGraph>(input->getNodeGraphString()); if (!nodeGraph) { continue; } vector<OutputPtr> outputs; if (input->hasOutputString()) { outputs.push_back(nodeGraph->getOutput(input->getOutputString())); // <--- null ptr is...

This week Bill connects the hype of literary awards to cybersecurity conference season. We highlight key insights from the Q2 2025 IR Trends report, including phishing trends, new ransomware strains, and top targeted sectors. Finally, check out all the places Talos will be at Black Hat.

The Russian nation-state threat actor known as Secret Blizzard has been observed orchestrating a new cyber espionage campaign targeting foreign embassies located in Moscow by means of an adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) attack at the Internet Service Provider (ISP) level and delivering a custom malware dubbed ApolloShadow. "ApolloShadow has the capability to install a trusted root certificate to
