Scientists have revealed a gaping hole in global telecom security, intercepting personal and business data from geostationary satellites.
TLDR Even if you take nothing else away from this piece, if your organization is evaluating passkey deployments, it is insecure to deploy synced passkeys. Synced passkeys inherit the risk of the cloud accounts and recovery processes that protect them, which creates material enterprise exposure. Adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) kits can force authentication fallbacks that circumvent strong
This issue affects Apache Spark versions before 3.4.4, 3.5.2 and 4.0.0. Apache Spark versions before 4.0.0, 3.5.2 and 3.4.4 use an insecure default network encryption cipher for RPC communication between nodes. When spark.network.crypto.enabled is set to true (it is set to false by default), but spark.network.crypto.cipher is not explicitly configured, Spark defaults to AES in CTR mode (AES/CTR/NoPadding), which provides encryption without authentication. This vulnerability allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to modify encrypted RPC traffic undetected by flipping bits in ciphertext, potentially compromising heartbeat messages or application data and affecting the integrity of Spark workflows. To mitigate this issue, users should either configure spark.network.crypto.cipher to AES/GCM/NoPadding to enable authenticated encryption or enable SSL encryption by setting spark.ssl.enabled to true, which provides stronger transport security.
Microsoft on Tuesday released fixes for a whopping 183 security flaws spanning its products, including three vulnerabilities that have come under active exploitation in the wild, as the tech giant officially ended support for its Windows 10 operating system unless the PCs are enrolled in the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program. Of the 183 vulnerabilities, eight of them are non-Microsoft
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed two critical security flaws impacting Red Lion Sixnet remote terminal unit (RTU) products that, if successfully exploited, could result in code execution with the highest privileges. The shortcomings, tracked as CVE-2023-40151 and CVE-2023-42770, are both rated 10.0 on the CVSS scoring system. "The vulnerabilities affect Red Lion SixTRAK and VersaTRAK
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed that a critical security flaw impacting ICTBroadcast, an autodialer software from ICT Innovations, has come under active exploitation in the wild. The vulnerability, assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2025-2611 (CVSS score: 9.3), relates to improper input validation that can result in unauthenticated remote code execution due to the fact that the call center
SAP has rolled out security fixes for 13 new security issues, including additional hardening for a maximum-severity bug in SAP NetWeaver AS Java that could result in arbitrary command execution. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-42944, carries a CVSS score of 10.0. It has been described as a case of insecure deserialization. "Due to a deserialization vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver, an
Microsoft today released software updates to plug a whopping 172 security holes in its Windows operating systems, including at least three vulnerabilities that are already being actively exploited. October's Patch Tuesday also marks the final month that Microsoft will ship security updates for Windows 10 systems. If you're running a Windows 10 PC and you're unable or unwilling to migrate to Windows 11, read on for other options.
### Summary Prototype pollution capabilities on various APIs. ### Details Injection of malicious payload allows attacker to remotely execute arbitrary code. `Parse.Object` and internal APIs are affected, specifically: - `ParseObject.fromJSON` - `ParseObject.pin` - `ParseObject.registerSubclass` - `ObjectStateMutations` (internal) - `encode`/`decode` (internal) ### PoC Demonstrative tests added as part of the fix. ### References - https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-JS/security/advisories/GHSA-9f2h-7v79-mxw3 - Patch https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-JS/releases/tag/7.0.0-alpha.1
The malicious app required to make a “Pixnapping” attack work requires no permissions.
