Threat actors have started weaponizing AI-generated PowerShell code to map Active Directory (AD) environments, marking a notable shift from off-the-shelf hacking tools to bespoke, “vibe-coded” malware. Security researchers at Huntress recovered and reconstructed one such script, dubbed Untitled1.ps1, from an incident on June 3, 2026. Vibe coding refers to writing software by iteratively prompting an […]

Internet-wide reconnaissance is expanding beyond conventional application targets to include Model Context Protocol (MCP) services, AI assistant configuration files, and locally exposed LLM endpoints. A 14-day review of Apache and ModSecurity logs from a small, low-traffic shared host found roughly 200 requests tied to AI-agent reconnaissance, alongside routine WordPress, .env, Git, and Spring Boot Actuator […]

A former ransomware negotiator at incident response firm DigitalMint has been sentenced to 70 months in prison after admitting he shared confidential client information with the BlackCat ransomware group and later helped carry out ransomware attacks. Prosecutors say Angelo Martino, 41, abused his role at DigitalMint beginning in April 2023 by providing BlackCat operators with sensitive information gathered during ransomware negotiations. The information included victims’ negotiating positions, insurance policy limits, and internal assessments, helping the … More →

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added two high-risk Joomla extension flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog. Both vulnerabilities allow unrestricted file uploads, a weakness that attackers can abuse to upload malicious files and potentially take control of vulnerable websites. The affected products are iCagenda and Balbooa Forms, two extensions used […]

A new threat model is raising hard questions about how quickly self-spreading malware could change during an attack. The proposed Intelligent Worm is not a confirmed strain found in the wild, but a scenario in which a worm uses an onboard reasoning loop to revise its attack methods after defenses block its original route. Like […]

Attackers running account enumeration against Microsoft cloud tenants have added a step that keeps their probing out of the usual telemetry. They spoof the OAuth client ID, the globally unique identifier assigned to an application and passed as client_id in an authentication request. Microsoft Entra ID records that value as the application ID in its sign-in logs, and the way it handles unfamiliar identifiers opens a gap that operators have started to work through. Entra … More →

CISA has added one new vulnerability to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation.
This type of vulnerability is a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and poses significant risks to the federal enterprise.
Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA’s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied.
While BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.
Aware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog? Submit it for potential addition through CISA’s KEV Nomination Form. Potential KEV additions must have a CVE ID, evidence of exploitation, and clear mitigation guidance.
