⚠️ Cloudflare Zero-Day Vulnerability Enables Any Host Access Bypassing Protections Source: cybersecuritynews.com/cloudf… A critical zero-day vulnerability in Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall (WAF) allowed attackers to bypass security controls and directly access protected origin servers through a certificate validation path. The requests targeting the /.well-known/acme-challenge/ directory could reach origins even when customer-configured WAF rules explicitly blocked all other traffic. The vulnerability was detected while reviewing applications where WAF configurations blocked global access and permitted only specific sources. #CybersecurityNews #vulnerabilitynews

From LNK to PlugX: Tracking UNC6384’s Zero-Day Abuse Chain arcticwolf.com/resources/blo… Chinese threat actor UNC6384 is actively exploiting a newly disclosed Windows LNK zero-day vulnerability (ZDI-CAN-25373) to target European diplomats with PlugX malware via Canon DLL sideloading, as reported by Arctic Wolf Labs. The initial stage involves a malicious LNK file embedded in EU/NATO-themed spearphishing emails—making early detection of shortcut file execution a critical warning signal. I’ve authored a Microsoft Defender XDR detection rule to catch this abuse chain and help teams stay ahead.🤝 #Cybersecurity #ZeroDay #ZDICAN25373

This hack is brilliant, APT28 hopping into a target environment over wifi by compromising neighbouring companies and finding a dual-homed host within range. volexity.com/blog/2024/11/22… And yet... they got caught doing this!

A Chinese military training site in China's Inner Mongolia region is an exact replica of the road network near Taiwan's Presidential Palace. Make no mistake: China fully plans to invade Taiwan in a geopolitical play that will unbalance the region.

🚩 This is worrying and continues to increase, multiple threat actors, including ransomware operators and initial access brokers, are abusing the @GoogleAds service, but at a higher level. Attackers manage to show the original domain (URL) in the malicious ads, which is eventually displayed to thousands of potential victims on Google's main results page. Three recent examples, thanks to Intel from Colin Cowie (Sophos) and Jérôme Segura (Malwarebytes) 👏 1.- #Pikabot (I think this is new 👀) ▪ infosec.exchange/@th3_protoC…infosec.exchange/@th3_protoC… 2.- #BatLoaderinfosec.exchange/@th3_protoC… 3.- #FakeBat Hunting Panel: ▪ malwarebytes.com/blog/threat… 🚨 DON'T TRUST Ads, be cautious, investigate, confirm.

Super simple email hunting ideas if you want to lose an afternoon: - Emails containing the base64 encoded email of the recipient in the body - Emails containing links to IPFS platforms like cloudflare-ipfs[.]com - Emails with a subject containing the recipient email local-part
