Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a security vulnerability in the RADIUS network authentication protocol called BlastRADIUS that could be exploited by an attacker to stage Mallory-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks and bypass integrity checks under certain circumstances.
“The RADIUS protocol allows certain Access-Request messages to have no integrity or authentication checks,” InkBridge

Cybersecurity researchers have found that it’s possible for attackers to weaponize improperly configured Jenkins Script Console instances to further criminal activities such as cryptocurrency mining.
“Misconfigurations such as improperly set up authentication mechanisms expose the ‘/script’ endpoint to attackers,” Trend Micro’s Shubham Singh and Sunil Bharti said in a technical write-up

Clear Web vs. Deep Web vs. Dark Web

Military personnel from Middle East countries are the target of an ongoing surveillanceware operation that delivers an Android data-gathering tool called GuardZoo.
The campaign, believed to have commenced as early as October 2019, has been attributed to a Houthi-aligned threat actor based on the application lures, command-and-control (C2) server logs, targeting footprint, and the attack

Cybersecurity agencies from Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, the U.K., and the U.S. have released a joint advisory about a China-linked cyber espionage group called APT40, warning about its ability to co-opt exploits for newly disclosed security flaws within hours or days of public release.
“APT 40 has previously targeted organizations in various countries, including

Unknown threat actors have been found propagating trojanized versions of jQuery on npm, GitHub, and jsDelivr in what appears to be an instance of a “complex and persistent” supply chain attack.
“This attack stands out due to the high variability across packages,” Phylum said in an analysis published last week.
“The attacker has cleverly hidden the malware in the seldom-used ‘end’ function of
