Toxic Combinations: The Hidden Catalyst Behind 70 % of Today’s Major Breaches
In the evolving theatre of cyber-conflict, large-scale breaches are no longer just the result of a single dramatic failure—now they are nearly always the result of many smaller failures colliding. According to recent analysis by Panaseer —a specialist in continuous controls monitoring—the statistic that sets the alarm bells ringing is stark: 70 % of major breaches stem from “toxic combinations” of overlapping cybersecurity risks. Understanding the domino effect The term toxi

Human Trust: The New Frontier in Data Extortion
When high-profile campaigns by groups like LAPSUS$ and Scattered Spider make headlines, they often leave the strong impression of technical wizardry: zero-days, clever malware, intricate breaches. But according to research from Flashpoint , that narrative misses the more profound evolution underway. Gone are the days when data extortion simply meant bulk-stealing databases: the playbook has matured to target the single most vulnerable link in modern enterprise security— human

Inside the AI-Supply-Chain: How a Trusted Assistant Became the Breach Vector
A new class of cyber-attack has surfaced in the age of enterprise AI, and it is rewriting the data-governance rulebook. The stealthy exploit, dubbed Shadow Escape , reportedly allows bad actors to exfiltrate sensitive personal and organizational data via standard AI assistant workflows — even when all systems appear to be operating inside trusted boundaries. The vulnerability was uncovered by the security research team at Operant AI, which characterizes the attack as a zero-c

AI Browsers Atlas and Comet Found Vulnerable to Sidebar Spoofing Attacks
Researchers have uncovered a new exploit that targets the AI-powered browsers Atlas by OpenAI and Comet by Perplexity, showing how attackers can create fake AI sidebars indistinguishable from the real interface to deliver malicious commands. The vulnerability—dubbed AI Sidebar Spoofing —was demonstrated by cybersecurity firm SquareX, which found that a rogue browser extension could overlay a counterfeit sidebar capable of intercepting every user interaction. The spoof mimic

Hidden backdoors, sloppy fixes: new TP-Link flaws let researchers — and attackers — root routers
Researchers at Forescout’s Vedere Labs say they’ve pulled open a fresh set of dangerous doors in TP-Link’s Omada and Festa VPN appliances — two newly cataloged vulnerabilities that let an attacker execute shell commands as root and resurrect a patched debug backdoor. The duo of flaws, tracked as CVE-2025-7850 and CVE-2025-7851 , expose an uncomfortable truth: incremental patches that don’t remove legacy developer features can create new, high-severity attack paths. The most

New Cross-Continental Campaign Exploits “ToolShell” Flaw to Breach Telecom and Government Networks
A previously undisclosed campaign of cyberespionage is now coming into sharper view, leveraging the zero-day vulnerability known as CVE‑2025‑53770—nicknamed “ToolShell”—to infiltrate a diverse range of targets spanning the Middle East, Africa, South America and the United States. The operation is marked by sophisticated chaining of publicly-known flaws, living-off-the-land tools, and covert backdoors, underscoring a troubling trend of rapid exploitation and cross-regional rea
