🔒 CYBERSECURITY, PRIVACY & OPEN SOURCE ROUNDUP — June 13, 2026
1️⃣ OPEN-SOURCE TOOL PRESERVES HUMAN RIGHTS EVIDENCE
The Tor Project highlights OpenArchive's free open-source Save app and DWeb Storage, tools designed to help communities securely archive, verify, and encrypt mobile media documenting human rights violations. These tools empower whistleblowers and journalists to preserve evidence without putting themselves or the records at risk, combining on-device encryption with decentralized storage to ensure data sovereignty.

2️⃣ MACOS MALWARE CAMPAIGN EXPLOITS FAKE HOMEBREW ADS
The Atomic macOS Stealer (AMOS) campaign is using fake Homebrew package manager advertisements to deploy persistent malware on macOS systems. Malware Traffic Analysis published the complete infection chain with network captures and extracted samples. Attackers disguise malicious payloads as legitimate Homebrew packages, tricking developers into installing stealers that persist across system restarts and exfiltrate credentials, tokens, and sensitive files.

3️⃣ SERVICENOW BREACH EXPOSES CUSTOMER DATA VIA UNAUTHENTICATED API
A ServiceNow breach exploited an unauthenticated API endpoint that exposed customer instance data, including support tickets and employee records. The vulnerability allowed unrestricted access to `/api/now/related_list_edit/create`, enabling attackers to extract sensitive organizational information. Security teams are advised to review logs for requests originating from the identified attacker IP range and restrict API endpoint access.

4️⃣ CLICKFIX PHISHING CAMPAIGN DELIVERS CUSTOM RAT
A new Amazon-themed ClickFix campaign is delivering HarborWatch Agent, a custom monitoring Remote Access Trojan. The multi-stage attack begins with a phishing email that leads to a fake CAPTCHA verification page, which then tricks victims into downloading the malware. The social engineering component turns victims into their own infection vector by convincing them they need to verify their security status.

5️⃣ SPLITUN ENTERPRISE ZERO-DAY RCE WITH CVSS 9.8
Splunk Enterprise has a critical pre-authentication remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2026-20253, CVSS 9.8) exploitable via a PostgreSQL sidecar bypass. AWS deployments are affected by default, and the flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to write arbitrary files, leading to full code execution with Splunk-level privileges. The vulnerable endpoint bypasses application-level authentication entirely, highlighting the risks of exposing database services.

6️⃣ CONTI RANSOMWARE OPERATIVE PLEADS GUILTY IN US COURT
Ukrainian national Oleksii Lytvynenko has pleaded guilty in the United States to wire fraud conspiracy linked to the Conti ransomware group. The operation attacked more than 1,000 victims and generated at least $150 million in ransom payments. The conviction is part of ongoing international efforts to dismantle ransomware infrastructure and hold individual operators accountable for cybercrimes.

7️⃣ ORACLE PEOPLESOFT ZERO-DAY ACTIVELY EXPLOITED
A critical Oracle PeopleSoft vulnerability has been actively exploited as a zero-day attack targeting organizational data. Google confirmed exploitation activity, and reports link the attacks to a threat actor group known as Shiny Hunters. Oracle has issued mitigation guidance, but the widespread deployment of PeopleSoft in enterprise environments means organizations face significant risk until patches are applied.
@SecWeekly
💭 The threat landscape continues to evolve with sophisticated supply-chain attacks targeting developers and critical enterprise software under constant pressure. From macOS malware disguised as package manager updates to zero-days in monitoring platforms like Splunk, the message is clear: every component in your stack is a potential entry point. Meanwhile, open-source tools like OpenArchive remind us that transparency and community-driven security remain essential defenses against both cyber threats and authoritarian surveillance.
