Cybersecurity researchers have discovered two Android spyware campaigns dubbed ProSpy and ToSpy that impersonate apps like Signal and ToTok to target users in the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.). Slovak cybersecurity company ESET said the malicious apps are distributed via fake websites and social engineering to trick unsuspecting users into downloading them. Once installed, both the spyware malware strains establish persistent access to compromised Android devices and exfiltrate data. "Neither app containing the spyware was available in official app stores; both required manual installation from third-party websites posing as legitimate services," ESET researcher Lukáš Štefanko said . Notably, one of the websites distributing the ToSpy malware family mimicked the Samsung Galaxy Store, luring users into manually downloading and installing a malicious version of the ToTok app." The ProSpy campaign, discovered in June 2025, is believed to have been ongoing since 2024, ...

In yet another piece of research, academics from Georgia Institute of Technology and Purdue University have demonstrated that the security guarantees offered by Intel's Software Guard eXtensions (SGX) can be bypassed on DDR4 systems to passively decrypt sensitive data. SGX is designed as a hardware feature in Intel server processors that allows applications to be run in a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE). It essentially isolates trusted code and resources within what's called enclaves, preventing attackers from viewing their memory or CPU state.  In doing so, the mechanism ensures that the data stays confidential even when the underlying operating system has been tampered with or compromised by other means. However, the latest findings show the limitations of SGX. "We show how one can build a device to physically inspect all memory traffic inside a computer cheaply and easily, in environments with only basic electrical tools, and using equipment easily purchased on...

A high-severity security flaw has been disclosed in the One Identity OneLogin Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution that, if successfully exploited, could expose sensitive OpenID Connect ( OIDC ) application client secrets under certain circumstances. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-59363 , has been assigned a CVSS score of 7.7 out of 10.0. It has been described as a case of incorrect resource transfer between spheres ( CWE-669 ), which causes a program to cross security boundaries and obtain unauthorized access to confidential data or functions. CVE-2025-59363 "allowed attackers with valid API credentials to enumerate and retrieve client secrets for all OIDC applications within an organization's OneLogin tenant," Clutch Security said in a report shared with The Hacker News. The identity security said the problem stems from the fact that the application listing endpoint – /api/2/apps – was configured to return more data than expected, including the ...

AI is changing automation—but not always for the better. That’s why we’re hosting a new webinar, " Workflow Clarity: Where AI Fits in Modern Automation ," with Thomas Kinsella, Co-founder & Chief Customer Officer at Tines, to explore how leading teams are cutting through the hype and building workflows that actually deliver. The rise of AI has changed how organizations think about automation. But here’s the reality many teams are quietly wrestling with: AI isn’t a silver bullet. Purely human-led workflows buckle under pressure, rigid rules-based automations break the moment reality shifts, and fully autonomous AI agents risk introducing black-box decision-making that’s impossible to audit. For cybersecurity and operations leaders, the stakes are even higher. You need workflows that are fast but reliable, powerful but secure, and—above all—explainable. So where does AI really fit in? The Hidden Problem with "All-In" Automation The push to automate everythi...

A severe security flaw has been disclosed in the Red Hat OpenShift AI service that could allow attackers to escalate privileges and take control of the complete infrastructure under certain conditions. OpenShift AI is a platform for managing the lifecycle of predictive and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) models at scale and across hybrid cloud environments. It also facilitates data acquisition and preparation, model training and fine-tuning, model serving and model monitoring, and hardware acceleration. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-10725 , carries a CVSS score of 9.9 out of a maximum of 10.0. It has been classified by Red Hat as "Important" and not "Critical" in severity owing to the need for a remote attacker to be authenticated in order to compromise the environment. "A low-privileged attacker with access to an authenticated account, for example, as a data scientist using a standard Jupyter notebook, can escalate their privileges to ...
