The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Monday added five security flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, officially confirming a recently disclosed vulnerability impacting Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) has been weaponized in real-world attacks. The security defect in question is CVE-2025-61884 (CVSS score: 7.5), which has been described as a

Amazon Web Services experienced DNS resolution issues on Monday morning, taking down wide swaths of the web—and highlighting a long-standing weakness in the internet's infrastructure.

It’s easy to think your defenses are solid — until you realize attackers have been inside them the whole time. The latest incidents show that long-term, silent breaches are becoming the norm. The best defense now isn’t just patching fast, but watching smarter and staying alert for what you don’t expect. Here’s a quick look at this week’s top threats, new tactics, and security stories shaping

**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.

Cybersecurity researchers have shed light on a new campaign that has likely targeted the Russian automobile and e-commerce sectors with a previously undocumented .NET malware dubbed CAPI Backdoor. According to Seqrite Labs, the attack chain involves distributing phishing emails containing a ZIP archive as a way to trigger the infection. The cybersecurity company's analysis is based on the ZIP

The threat actors behind a malware family known as Winos 4.0 (aka ValleyRAT) have expanded their targeting footprint from China and Taiwan to target Japan and Malaysia with another remote access trojan (RAT) tracked as HoldingHands RAT (aka Gh0stBins). "The campaign relied on phishing emails with PDFs that contained embedded malicious links," Pei Han Liao, researcher with Fortinet's FortiGuard

Microsoft revoked more than 200 digital certificates that threat actors used to sign fake Teams binaries that set the stage for Rhysida ransomware attacks.
