The threat actors behind the AndroxGh0st malware are now exploiting a broader set of security flaws impacting various internet-facing applications, while also deploying the Mozi botnet malware. "This botnet utilizes remote code execution and credential-stealing methods to maintain persistent access, leveraging unpatched vulnerabilities to infiltrate critical infrastructures," CloudSEK said in a

High-profile entities in India have become the target of malicious campaigns orchestrated by the Pakistan-based Transparent Tribe threat actor and a previously unknown China-nexus cyber espionage group dubbed IcePeony. The intrusions linked to Transparent Tribe involve the use of a malware called ElizaRAT and a new stealer payload dubbed ApoloStealer on specific victims of interest, Check Point

A new campaign has targeted the npm package repository with malicious JavaScript libraries that are designed to infect Roblox users with open-source stealer malware such as Skuld and Blank-Grabber. "This incident highlights the alarming ease with which threat actors can launch supply chain attacks by exploiting trust and human error within the open source ecosystem, and using readily available

Let’s face it—traditional security training can feel as thrilling as reading the fine print on a software update. It’s routine, predictable, and, let’s be honest, often forgotten the moment it's over. Now, imagine cybersecurity training that’s as unforgettable as your favorite show. Remember how "Hamilton" made history come alive, or how "The Office" taught us CPR (Staying Alive beat, anyone?)?

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a new malware campaign that infects Windows systems with a Linux virtual instance containing a backdoor capable of establishing remote access to the compromised hosts. The "intriguing" campaign, codenamed CRON#TRAP, starts with a malicious Windows shortcut (LNK) file likely distributed in the form of a ZIP archive via a phishing email. "What makes the CRON#

Chinese APT groups increasingly lean on open source platform SoftEther VPN for network access. Now they're lending their know-how to Iranian counterparts.

### Summary The validation for the file URI scheme falls short, and results in an attacker being able to read any file on the system. This issue only affects instances with a webdriver enabled, and `ALLOW_FILE_URI` false or not defined. ### Details The check used for URL protocol, `is_safe_url`, allows `file:` as a URL scheme: https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/blob/e0abf0b50507a8a3d0c1d8522ab23519b3e4cdf4/changedetectionio/model/Watch.py#L11-L13 It later checks if local files are permitted, but one of the preconditions for the check is that the URL starts with `file://`. The issue comes with the fact that the file URI scheme is not required to have double slashes. > A valid file URI must therefore begin with either `file:/path` (no hostname), `file:///path` (empty hostname), or `file://hostname/path`. > — [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme#Number_of_slash_characters) https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/blob/e0abf0b50507a8a3d0c1d8522...

### Impact HTTP Clients created by `AddUserAccessTokenHttpClient` may use a different user's access token after a token refresh. This occurs because a refreshed token will be captured in pooled `HttpClient` instances, which may be used by a different user. ### Workarounds Instead of using `AddUserAccessTokenHttpClient` to create an `HttpClient` that automatically adds a managed token to outgoing requests, you can use the `HttpConext.GetUserAccessTokenAsync` extension method or the `IUserTokenManagementService.GetAccessTokenAsync` method. ### Patches This issue is fixed in Duende.AccessTokenManagement.OpenIdConnect 3.0.1.

Though Cisco reports of no known malicious exploitation attempts, three of its wireless access points are vulnerable to these attacks.
