Security teams have spent decades asking whether an identity has too much access. AI agents raise a harder question: how can we determine which paths an autonomous system can discover, given the access it already has? A person may try several ways to complete a task. A deterministic application follows the flow its developer wrote. But an AI agent is relentl…
Attackers are exploiting a new flaw in on-premises VeloCloud Orchestrator (VCO), the server that manages the Edge devices in a VeloCloud SD-WAN, Arista said on September 22.

AI is letting cybercriminals reach deeper into organizations than a phishing email ever could. 41% of CISOs reported at least one social engineering incident involving a deepfake during an employee audio call in the past 12 months, according to Gartner. 36% reported the same for a video call. 79% of CISOs surveyed reported at least one phishing, spear-phishi…
Impersonation, phishing and domain-name abuse are the most concerning types of online intellectual property infringement, according to CSC’s The State of Online IP Risk 2026 report. Internet and branded content, online marketplaces and paid search were the channels most frequently targeted. CSC surveyed 300 senior executives specializing in intellectual prop…
Industrial companies are increasing cybersecurity investment as connected operations, AI adoption, and IT/OT convergence expand operational risk.
Forescout warns that incomplete network segmentation is widening the potential blast radius of attacks
When the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) became enforceable across the European Union in January 2025, it triggered an administrative sprint. Financial entities spent the first year establishing risk governance, assessing third-party service providers, updating contract clauses, and documenting incident escalation workflows. Now in its second year,…
A new flaw in the Linux kernel's KVM virtualization code for ARM64 processors can leave a freed piece of host memory exposed to a guest virtual machine on hosts with nested virtualization enabled. The bug, tracked as CVE-2026-89775, allows a guest to read and write host kernel memory, and the researcher who found it says it can be used to escape the guest an…
A SharePoint Server vulnerability that Microsoft initially classified as a spoofing flaw with a CVSS score of 6.5 actually enables authenticated remote code execution, according to full technical details published today by Viettel Cyber Security researcher Dinh Ho Anh Khoa. The flaw, CVE-2026-65660, affects SharePoint Server 2016, 2019, and Subscription Edit…
Mac security researcher Patrick Wardle says it’s trivial to turn Muse into “the ultimate backdoor.” Increasingly, AI assistants are changing from tools that simply answer questions into agents that can plan tasks, use connected services, and take actions for us. These actions might include booking appointments, filling out forms, creating documents, making p…
A Chinese-speaking threat actor has exploited a vulnerability (CVE-2026-7273) in unpatched ZyXEL GS1900 Smart Managed Switches and has exfiltrated sensitive data from 996 devices across 48 countries, GreyNoise reported on Monday. The affected switches are predominantly located in Italy, the US, Taiwan, South Korea, and a number of EU countries. CVE-2026-7273…
Akamai has watched verified AI crawlers, ChatGPT among them, move from reading web pages to sending high-frequency POST requests. In a 30-day analysis of its global customers, ecommerce accounted for 44.8% of those AI bot POST transactions, and travel climbed to 30% in a single month. A GET request asks a website for a page. A POST request tells the site to …
Akamai report warns of increase in bot traffic, API threats, chatbot leaks and other AI-related threats
Threat actors stole the contents of 170 private repositories using an OAuth token stolen from a former employee's computer through the TanStack npm supply chain attack.
A Veeam Agent flaw lets local users gain SYSTEM privileges. A public PoC is available, raising the risk of exploitation on shared Windows systems. If you’re running Veeam Agent on a Windows endpoint with more than one local user, now’s the time to check the version, not tomorrow. On September 14, 2026, public technical details and a proof-of-concept exploit …
CLOSEDQUORUM, a malware binary discovered through Cisco Talos’ CAIRN project , exhibits fully autonomous command and control (C2). While we do not have confirmation of in-the-wild deployment, artifacts from the binary were used to connect the developer to postings on criminal forums related to carding, dating back to 2025. This malware is a useful reference …
A cairn is a marker left behind on a trail, a deliberately placed stack of stones that helps hikers find their way when the path is unclear. Attackers building AI-integrated malware unintentionally (and inevitably) leave behind markers of their own: prompt templates, provider endpoints, API keys, jailbreak terms, and other artifacts embedded throughout their…
Over the weekend, security researcher Abdelhamid Naceri (also known as Nightmare Eclipse) released another Microsoft Defender zero-day exploit that blocks antivirus updates. [...]
We’ve heard of OpenAI’s AI agents running amok and hacking other companies . Now, a cybersecurity company has turned the tables on the ChatGPT operator by using AI to help hack OpenAI itself. The hack, which also exposed a bug affecting dozens of other major online services, was conducted as security research. OpenAI paid the researchers for reporting a flaw…
A malicious npm package named "indexed-btree" has been observed hiding its malicious behavior within application code rather than using lifecycle scripts, indicating that threat actors are likely shifting tactics in response to recent security controls. "Indexed-btree is a malicious npm package mimicking the legit sorted-btree package, an ordinary B-tree/ind…
Gartner warns that CISOs must update incident response playbooks as AI-powered deepfakes make social engineering attacks more convincing and harder to detect
U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) adds Zyxel flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added a Zyxel GS1900 Series Switches flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-7273 (CVSS score of 8.8), to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog . The flaw is a stack-based …
Scammers are using a $249 website toolkit to sell unverified AI subscriptions worth up to $2,000 a year, and a genuine Google sign-in screen is what makes the sites convincing. Malwarebytes found more than 100 websites built this way, all tied to the same toolkit and closely related developer details. The network includes sites that copy the names of existin…
