WarmCookie is a malware family that emerged in April 2024 and has been distributed via regularly conducted malspam and malvertising campaigns.

TA866 (also known as Asylum Ambuscade) is a threat actor that has been conducting intrusion operations since at least 2020.

Threat actors have been observed abusing Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) Transfer Acceleration feature as part of ransomware attacks designed to exfiltrate victim data and upload them to S3 buckets under their control. "Attempts were made to disguise the Golang ransomware as the notorious LockBit ransomware," Trend Micro researchers Jaromir Horejsi and Nitesh Surana said. "However, such is

The following bundled files within the Mermaid NPM package contain a bundled version of DOMPurify that is vulnerable to https://github.com/cure53/DOMPurify/security/advisories/GHSA-mmhx-hmjr-r674, potentially resulting in an XSS attack. This affects the built: - `dist/mermaid.min.js` - `dist/mermaid.js` - `dist/mermaid.esm.mjs` - `dist/mermaid.esm.min.mjs` This will also affect users that use the above files via a CDN link, e.g. `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mermaid@10.9.2/dist/mermaid.min.js` **Users that use the default NPM export of `mermaid`, e.g. `import mermaid from 'mermaid'`, or the `dist/mermaid.core.mjs` file, do not use this bundled version of DOMPurify, and can easily update using their package manager with something like `npm audit fix`.** ### Patches - `develop` branch: 6c785c93166c151d27d328ddf68a13d9d65adc00 - backport to v10: 92a07ffe40aab2769dd1c3431b4eb5beac282b34

Russian-speaking users have become the target of a new phishing campaign that leverages an open-source phishing toolkit called Gophish to deliver DarkCrystal RAT (aka DCRat) and a previously undocumented remote access trojan dubbed PowerRAT. "The campaign involves modular infection chains that are either Maldoc or HTML-based infections and require the victim's intervention to trigger the

GoDaddy flagged a ClickFix campaign that infected 6,000 sites in a one-day period, with attackers using stolen admin credentials to distribute malware.

Cisco Talos recently discovered a phishing campaign using an open-source phishing toolkit called Gophish by an unknown threat actor.

### Summary In `elliptic`-based version, `loadUncompressedPublicKey` has a check that the public key is on the curve: https://github.com/cryptocoinjs/secp256k1-node/blob/6d3474b81d073cc9c8cc8cfadb580c84f8df5248/lib/elliptic.js#L37-L39 `loadCompressedPublicKey` is, however, missing that check: https://github.com/cryptocoinjs/secp256k1-node/blob/6d3474b81d073cc9c8cc8cfadb580c84f8df5248/lib/elliptic.js#L17-L19 That allows the attacker to use public keys on low-cardinality curves to extract enough information to fully restore the private key from as little as 11 ECDH sessions, and very cheaply on compute power Other operations on public keys are also affected, including e.g. `publicKeyVerify()` incorrectly returning `true` on those invalid keys, and e.g. `publicKeyTweakMul()` also returning predictable outcomes allowing to restore the tweak ### Details The curve equation is `Y^2 = X^3 + 7`, and it restores `Y` from `X` in `loadCompressedPublicKey`, using `Y = sqrt(X^3 + 7)`, but whe...
