The nascent collective that combines three prominent cybercrime groups, Scattered Spider, LAPSUS$, and ShinyHunters, has created no less than 16 Telegram channels since August 8, 2025. "Since its debut, the group's Telegram channels have been removed and recreated at least 16 times under varying iterations of the original name – a recurring cycle reflecting platform moderation and the operators' determination to sustain this specific type of public presence despite disruption," Trustwave SpiderLabs, a LevelBlue company, said in a report shared with The Hacker News. Scattered LAPSUS$ Hunters (SLH) emerged in early August, launching data extortion attacks against organizations, including those using Salesforce in recent months. Chief among its offerings is an extortion-as-a-service (EaaS) that other affiliates can join to demand a payment from targets in exchange for using the "brand" and notoriety of the consolidated entity. All three groups are assesse...

Nine people have been arrested in connection with a coordinated law enforcement operation that targeted a cryptocurrency money laundering network that defrauded victims of €600 million (~$688 million). According to a statement released by Eurojust today, the action took place between October 27 and 29 across Cyprus, Spain, and Germany, with the suspects arrested on charges of involvement in money laundering from fraudulent activities. In addition to the arrests of the individuals from their homes, authorities conducted searches that led to the seizure of €800,000 ($918,000) in bank accounts, €415,000 ($476,000) in cryptocurrencies, and €300,000 ($344,000) in cash. Participating nations in the "synchronized" effort alongside Eurojust were agencies from France, Belgium, Cyprus, Germany, and Spain. "The members of the network created dozens of fake cryptocurrency investment platforms that looked like legitimate websites and promised high returns," Eurojust said . ...

Details have emerged about a now-patched critical security flaw in the popular " @react-native-community/cli " npm package that could be potentially exploited to run malicious operating system (OS) commands under certain conditions. "The vulnerability allows remote unauthenticated attackers to easily trigger arbitrary OS command execution on the machine running react-native-community/cli's development server, posing a significant risk to developers," JFrog Senior Security Researcher Or Peles said in a report shared with The Hacker News. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-11953, carries a CVSS score of 9.8 out of a maximum of 10.0, indicating critical severity. It also affects the "@react-native-community/cli-server-api" package versions 4.8.0 through 20.0.0-alpha.2, and has been patched in version 20.0.0 released early last month. The command-line tools package , which is maintained by Meta, enables developers to build React Native mobile ...

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of four security flaws in Microsoft Teams that could have exposed users to serious impersonation and social engineering attacks. The vulnerabilities "allowed attackers to manipulate conversations, impersonate colleagues, and exploit notifications," Check Point said in a report shared with The Hacker News. Following responsible disclosure in March 2024, some of the issues were addressed by Microsoft in August 2024 under the CVE identifier CVE-2024-38197, with subsequent patches rolled out in September 2024 and October 2025. In a nutshell, these shortcomings make it possible to alter message content without leaving the "Edited" label and sender identity and modify incoming notifications to change the apparent sender of the message, thereby allowing an attacker to trick victims into opening malicious messages by making them appear as if they are coming from a trusted source, including high-profile C-suite executives...
