In a world where threats are persistent, the modern CISO’s real job isn't just to secure technology—it's to preserve institutional trust and ensure business continuity. This week, we saw a clear pattern: adversaries are targeting the complex relationships that hold businesses together, from supply chains to strategic partnerships. With new regulations and the rise of AI-driven attacks, the
Researchers convince Anthropic's AI-assisted coding tool to engage in dangerous behavior by lying to it, paving the way for a supply chain attack.
A new artificial intelligence (AI)-powered penetration testing tool linked to a China-based company has attracted nearly 11,000 downloads on the Python Package Index (PyPI) repository, raising concerns that it could be repurposed by cybercriminals for malicious purposes. Dubbed Villager, the framework is assessed to be the work of Cyberspike, which has positioned the tools as a red teaming

The express-xss-sanitizer (aka Express XSS Sanitizer) package through 2.0.0 for Node.js has an unbounded recursion depth in sanitize in lib/sanitize.js for a JSON request body.
Recently, we’ve shared a lot about post-quantum cryptography, the great work we’re doing to make it available to you through our products, and the importance of preparing for a future with quantum computers powerful enough to break classic RSA-based cryptography. You may have heard about “Q-day,” the day when a cryptographically relevant quantum computer (CRQC) is available to break public-key encryption–the underpinning of our digital world today. If you missed it, this risk is real, and proactive organizations are already preparing for it. Q-day is predicted to occur between 2029 a
Samsung patched CVE-2025-21043, a critical flaw in its Android devices exploited in live attacks. Users urged to install September 2025 update.
A Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability was discovered in the Hugging Face Transformers library, specifically within the `normalize_numbers()` method of the `EnglishNormalizer` class. This vulnerability affects versions up to 4.52.4 and is fixed in version 4.53.0. The issue arises from the method's handling of numeric strings, which can be exploited using crafted input strings containing long sequences of digits, leading to excessive CPU consumption. This vulnerability impacts text-to-speech and number normalization tasks, potentially causing service disruption, resource exhaustion, and API vulnerabilities.
