Details have emerged about a now-patched security flaw in Styra's Open Policy Agent ( OPA ) that, if successfully exploited, could have led to leakage of New Technology LAN Manager ( NTLM ) hashes. "The vulnerability could have allowed an attacker to leak the NTLM credentials of the OPA server's local user account to a remote server, potentially allowing the attacker to relay the authentication or crack the password," cybersecurity firm Tenable said in a report shared with The Hacker News. The security flaw, described as a Server Message Block (SMB) force-authentication vulnerability and tracked as CVE-2024-8260 (CVSS score: 6.1/7.3), impacts both the CLI and Go software development kit (SDK) for Windows. At its core, the issue stems from an improper input validation that can lead to unauthorized access by leaking the Net-NTLMv2 hash of the user who is currently logged into the Windows device running the OPA application. However, for this to work, the victim ...

John the Ripper 1.7.7 new version Released ! “John the Ripper is a fast password cracker, currently available for many flavors of Unix, Windows, DOS, BeOS, and OpenVMS. Its primary purpose is to detect weak Unix passwords. It supports several crypt(3) password hash types commonly found on Unix systems, as well as Windows LM hashes.” This is the change log for JtR version 1.7.7: Added Intel AVX and AMD XOP instruction sets support for bitslice DES (with C compiler intrinsics). New make targets: linux-x86-64-avx, linux-x86-64-xop, linux-x86-avx, and linux-x86-xop (these require recent versions of GCC and GNU binutils). A “dummy” “format” is now supported (plaintext passwords encoded in hexadecimal and prefixed with “$dummy$”) – for faster testing and tuning of custom wordlists, rule sets, .chr files, and external modes on already known or artificial passwords, as well as for testing of future and modified versions of John itself. Apache “$apr1$” MD5-based password hashes are now ...

A Russian-speaking initial access broker (IAB) driven by financial gain is assessed to be behind a large-scale credential-harvesting operation known as FortiBleed that has targeted over 430,000 FortiGate firewalls globally. The campaign , active since February 2026, involves collecting credential lists, searching for exposed services, brute-forcing accessible systems, and deploying bespoke sniffers on compromised firewalls. "Once deployed, these sniffers capture cleartext and hashed credentials from traffic passing through compromised devices," SOCRadar said [PDF] in a fresh report. "The actors then crack, validate, and reuse the credentials against Active Directory domains and other exposed services." Central to the operation is a Golang-based tool called FortigateSniffer that takes advantage of the FortiOS built-in diagnostic command -diagnose sniffer packet to passively capture authentication traffic from the infected appliances. Appearing in both Window...

Microsoft on Tuesday rolled out fixes for a massive set of 111 security flaws across its software portfolio, including one flaw that has been disclosed as publicly known at the time of the release. Of the 111 vulnerabilities, 16 are rated Critical, 92 are rated Important, two are rated Moderate, and one is rated Low in severity. Forty-four of the vulnerabilities relate to privilege escalation, followed by remote code execution (35), information disclosure (18), spoofing (8), and denial-of-service (4) defects. This is in addition to 16 vulnerabilities addressed in Microsoft's Chromium-based Edge browser since the release of last month's Patch Tuesday update , including two spoofing bugs affecting Edge for Android. Included among the vulnerabilities is a privilege escalation vulnerability impacting Microsoft Exchange Server hybrid deployments ( CVE-2025-53786 , CVSS score: 8.0) that Microsoft disclosed last week. The publicly disclosed zero-day is CVE-2025-53779 (CVS...

If you are using TeamViewer, then beware and make sure you're running the latest version of the popular remote desktop connection software for Windows. TeamViewer team recently released a new version of its software that includes a patch for a severe vulnerability ( CVE 2020-13699 ), which, if exploited, could let remote attackers steal your system password and eventually compromise it.

Some of the biggest security problems start quietly. No alerts. No warnings. Just small actions that seem normal but aren't. Attackers now know how to stay hidden by blending in, and that makes it hard to tell when something’s wrong. This week’s stories aren’t just about what was attacked—but how easily it happened. If we’re only looking for the obvious signs, what are we missing right in front of us? Here’s a look at the tactics and mistakes that show how much can go unnoticed. ⚡ Threat of the Week Apple Zero-Click Flaw in Messages Exploited to Deliver Paragon Spyware — Apple disclosed that a security flaw in its Messages app was actively exploited in the wild to target civil society members in sophisticated cyber attacks. The vulnerability, CVE-2025-43200, was addressed by the company in February as part of iOS 18.3.1, iPadOS 18.3.1, iPadOS 17.7.5, macOS Sequoia 15.3.1, macOS Sonoma 14.7.4, macOS Ventura 13.7.4, watchOS 11.3.1, and visionOS 2.3.1.

You wouldn’t run your blue team once a year, so why accept this substandard schedule for your offensive side? Your cybersecurity teams are under intense pressure to be proactive and to find your network’s weaknesses before adversaries do. But in many organizations, offensive security is still treated as a one-time event: an annual pentest, a quarterly red team engagement, maybe an audit sprint before a compliance deadline . That’s not defense. It's a theater. In the real world, adversaries don’t operate in bursts. Their recon is continuous, their tools and tactics are always evolving, and new vulnerabilities are often reverse-engineered into working exploits within hours of a patch release.  So, if your offensive validation isn’t just as dynamic, you’re not just lagging, you’re exposed. It’s time to move beyond the once a year pentest. It’s time to build an Offensive Security Operations Center . Why annual pentesting falls short Point-in-time penetration tests still serv...

Microsoft on Monday revised its advisory for a now-patched, high-severity security flaw impacting Windows Shell to acknowledge that it has been actively exploited in the wild. The vulnerability in question is CVE-2026-32202 (CVSS score: 4.3), a spoofing vulnerability that could allow an attacker to access sensitive information. It was addressed as part of its Patch Tuesday update for this month. "Protection mechanism failure in Windows Shell allows an unauthorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network," Microsoft noted in an alert. "An attacker would have to send the victim a malicious file that the victim would have to execute." "An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could view some sensitive information (Confidentiality) but not all resources within the impacted component may be divulged to the attacker. The attacker cannot make changes to disclosed information (Integrity) or limit access to the resource (Availability)."...
