Google's artificial intelligence (AI)-powered cybersecurity agent called Big Sleep has been credited by Apple for discovering as many as five different security flaws in the WebKit component used in its Safari web browser that, if successfully exploited, could result in a browser crash or memory corruption. The list of vulnerabilities is as follows - CVE-2025-43429 - A buffer overflow
Federal prosecutors in the U.S. have accused a trio of allegedly hacking the networks of five U.S. companies with BlackCat (aka ALPHV) ransomware between May and November 2023 and extorting them. Ryan Clifford Goldberg, Kevin Tyler Martin, and an unnamed co–conspirator (aka "Co-Conspirator 1") based in Florida, all U.S. nationals, are said to have used the ransomware strain against a medical
## Summary A command injection vulnerability in MotionEye allows attackers to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) by supplying malicious values in configuration fields exposed via the Web UI. Because MotionEye writes user-supplied values directly into Motion configuration files without sanitization, attackers can inject shell syntax that is executed when the Motion process restarts. This issue enables full takeover of the MotionEye container and potentially the host environment (depending on container privileges). ## Details ### Root Cause: MotionEye accepts arbitrary strings from fields such as **image_file_name** and **movie_filename** in the Web UI. These are written directly into **/etc/motioneye/camera-*.conf**. When MotionEye restarts the Motion service (motionctl.start), the Motion binary reads this configuration. Because Motion treats these fields as shell-expandable, injected characters (e.g. $(), backticks) are interpreted as shell commands. ### Vulnerability flow: Dashboa...
Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a new malicious extension in the Open VSX registry that harbors a remote access trojan called SleepyDuck. According to Secure Annex's John Tuckner, the extension in question, juan-bianco.solidity-vlang (version 0.0.7), was first published on October 31, 2025, as a completely benign library that was subsequently updated to version 0.0.8 on November 1 to
This week on the Lock and Code podcast, we speak with Deb Donig about OpenAI's stated desire to release "erotica" on ChatGPT.
Cyberattacks are getting smarter and harder to stop. This week, hackers used sneaky tools, tricked trusted systems, and quickly took advantage of new security problems—some just hours after being found. No system was fully safe. From spying and fake job scams to strong ransomware and tricky phishing, the attacks came from all sides. Even encrypted backups and secure areas were put to the test.
The EVE X1 server uses a weak set of default administrative credentials that can be found and used to gain full control of the system.
Check Point Research exposed a sophisticated, role-based operation called the YouTube Ghost Network, distributing dangerous Lumma and Rhadamanthys Infostealer malware. Learn how cybercriminals use hijacked channels and bots to triple malicious video output and steal user credentials.
As the Trump administration ramps up its targeting of left-leaning people and groups, the prosecution and harsh sentencing of Casey Goonan may provide a glimpse of things to come.
**Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?** One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
