In February 2026, a phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform called EvilTokens went live. Within five weeks, it had compromised more than 340 Microsoft 365 organizations across five countries. 

The targets of the platform received a message asking them to enter a short code at microsoft.com/devicelogin and complete their normal MFA challenge, then walked away believing they had verified a

Drupal has issued an alert stating that it intends to release a “core security release” for all supported branches on May 20, 2026, from 5-9 p.m. UTC.

“The Drupal Security Team urges you to reserve time for core updates at that time because exploits might be developed within hours or days,” the maintainers of the PHP-based content management system (CMS) said.

“Not all configurations are

Critical security vulnerabilities have been disclosed in SEPPMail Secure E-Mail Gateway, an enterprise-grade email security solution, that could be exploited to achieve remote code execution and enable an attacker to read arbitrary mails from the virtual appliance.
“These vulnerabilities could have been exploited to read all mail traffic or as an entry vector into the internal network,”

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a compromised version of the Nx Console extension that was published to the Microsoft Visual Studio Code (VS Code) Marketplace.

The extension in question is rwl.angular-console (version 18.95.0), a popular user interface and plugin for code editors like VS Code, Cursor, and JetBrains. The VS Code extension has more than 2.2 million installations. The Open

In yet another software supply chain attack, threat actors have compromised the popular GitHub Actions workflow, actions-cool/issues-helper, to run malicious code that harvests sensitive credentials and exfiltrates them to an attacker-controlled server.

“Every existing tag in the repository has been moved to point to an imposter commit that does not appear in the action’s normal commit history,

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a fresh software supply chain attack campaign that has compromised various npm packages associated with the @antv ecosystem as part of the ongoing Mini Shai-Hulud attack wave.

“The attack affects packages tied to the npm maintainer account atool, including echarts-for-react, a widely used React wrapper for Apache ECharts with roughly 1.1 million weekly

INTERPOL has coordinated a first-of-its-kind cybercrime crackdown across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) that led to 201 arrests and the identification of an additional 382 suspects.
The initiative involved the efforts of 13 countries from the region between October 2025 and February 2026, aiming to investigate and neutralize malicious infrastructure, arrest perpetrators behind these

Monday opens with a trust problem. A mail server flaw is under active use. A network control system was targeted. Trusted packages were poisoned. A fake model page pushed a stealer. Then came the familiar ransom claim: the data was returned and deleted.
The pattern is clear. One weak dependency can leak keys. One leaked key can open cloud access. One cloud foothold can become a production

What happens when a phishing email looks clean enough to pass through security, but dangerous enough to expose the business after one click? That is the gap many SOCs still struggle with: the attacks that leave teams unsure what was exposed, who else was targeted, and how far the risk has spread.
Early phishing detection closes that gap. It helps teams move from uncertainty to evidence faster,

Supply chain attackers are not only trying to slip malicious code into trusted software. They are trying to steal the access that makes trusted software possible. Recently, three separate campaigns hit npm, PyPI, and Docker Hub in a 48-hour window, and all three targeted secrets from developer environments and CI/CD pipelines, including API keys, cloud credentials, SSH keys, and tokens. This is
