πŸ”₯ Microsoft patched a record 622 CVEs, including two exploited zero-days in SharePoint Server and AD FS.

The SharePoint flaw allows remote, unauthenticated privilege escalation. The AD FS bug lets authenticated attackers elevate privileges locally.

Here's what to patch first: https://thehackernews.com/2026/07/microsoft-patches-record-622-flaws.html

🚨 Five poisoned versions of four AsyncAPI npm packages shipped a multi-stage botnet loader.

They carried valid provenance attestations, and the malware ran when affected modules were loaded, not at install time.

🚨 Cursor on Windows can silently run an attacker-supplied binary when a developer opens a cloned repository.

A repo-root git.exe is enough. No prompt, agent, approval, or prior access. It runs as the logged-in user.

Reported in December. Still unpatched.

One approved marketing tag can quietly load unvetted fourth-party code into your site.

Those scripts can access forms, checkout fields, and customer data long after the original vendor review.

πŸ›‘ Right after #Microsoft’s July Patch Tuesday, Chaotic Eclipse dropped a Windows 0-Day PoC that still works on every supported desktop and server release.

It is the latest turn in the researcher’s months-long dispute with Microsoft.

Traditional SASE sees the HTTPS connection to an LLM, not the intent inside it.

An AI agent can use MCP tools to pull proprietary code or internal documents while the proxy sees only valid encrypted traffic.

AI-driven threats move daily, but most security programs still rely on week-old spreadsheets to report risk to the board.

Join next week’s Axonius webinar as Frederico Hakamine breaks down how to close this reporting gap with automated baselines and metrics that stand up to executive scrutiny.

⚠️ On an infected Windows PC, OkoBot can make a fake seed phrase request appear inside the real Ledger Live or Trezor Suite app.

The app looks genuine because it is genuine. The request is not.

It may even wait until you plug in the hardware wallet.

A valid login is not always enough.

A password may let someone read an account, but not change payout details. OIDC AMR, ACR, and SAML AuthnContext help applications decide when stronger proof is required.

⚑ OpenAI built an AI model to attack its own AI models.

GPT-Red develops prompt injections automatically. In one test, it got an AI vending machine to order a $100 item for $0.50 and cancel another customer’s order.

πŸ›‘ ALERT - Pull one certificate from a Shark robot vacuum, and it could run root commands on other Shark vacuums across the same AWS region.

In 24 hours, a researcher saw 673,816 devices return Exec_Response, which he treats as confirmation that they support the command handler.

AI can generate polished vulnerability reports, payloads, and severity scores in seconds.

That does not prove the bug is reachable, exploitable, or even real. Without validation, faster testing becomes faster noise.
