Researchers with LevelBlue’s SpiderLabs said the incident began with a targeted spear-phishing email disguised as a freight rate confirmation. The message

A ransomware operation tracked as JadePuffer may be one of the clearest signs yet that autonomous AI agents are moving from theory into real-world cybercrime. According to cloud security firm Sysdig, JadePuffer used a large language model agent to conduct much of the ransomware attack chain on its own, including reconnaissance, credential theft, lateral movement, persistence, privilege escalation, and data encryption.

The Vancouver-based company, which provides competitive intelligence and market research tools, disclosed that attackers accessed its systems in June and obtain

A pair of security flaws in Shynet, the self-hosted web analytics platform used by developers and privacy-conscious website owners, shows how even lightweight tracking software can become a powerful attack surface when it sits inside the browser flow of multiple sites. Security researchers at Bishop Fox disclosed two vulnerabilities in Shynet version 0.13.1 that could allow unauthenticated attackers to compromise tracked websites or hijack user accounts. The most serious issu
