The Hacker News
A system doesn't always need a complicated bug to let someone in. Sometimes, a blank password is enough. That's one of the bigger stories this week. And it gets worse when the tools meant to keep systems updated or running safely become part of the attack. Elsewhere, attackers are hiding inside normal web traffic, stealing credentials from network devices, and finding new uses for exposed
Check Point Research
Research by: Alexey Bukhteyev Key Takeaways Introduction Earlier this year, Check Point Research disclosed a security flaw in ChatGPT’s code-execution runtime that allowed sensitive conversation data to be silently exfiltrated to an attacker-controlled server through DNS tunneling, a hidden outbound channel that bypassed the runtime’s network isolation. A fix for this issue was promptly deployed. […] The post appeared first on . ChatGPT Lockdown Mode Bypass: Phishing, Malware Delivery, and Silent Data Exfiltration Check Point Research
The Hacker News
Some attacks this week didn't need much of a trick. A fake support call, a trusted extension, a shared link, or a device with no password. Small things that people barely think about. Yet each was enough to cause serious trouble. Then there were the bigger messes. Billions stolen, hidden networks of hacked devices, poisoned software, and attackers finding new ways to turn normal tools against
CISA advisories
View CSAF Summary The products listed below contain an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could allow an attacker to cause abnormal product behavior, instability, or denial of service. Siemens has released a new version for Capital Embedded AR Classic R20-11 and recommends updating to the latest version. Siemens is preparing further fix versions and recommends specific countermeasures for products where fixes are not, or not yet available. The following versions of Siemens Capital Embedded AR Classic are affected: Capital Embedded AR Classic 431-422 vers:all/* (CVE-2026-89208) Capital Embedded AR Classic R20-11 vers:intdot/<2303 (CVE-2026-89208) CVSS Vendor Equipment v3 5.3 Siemens Capital Embedded AR Classic 431-422 1 Vulnerability Out-of-bounds Read Background Critical Infrastructure Sectors: Critical Manufacturing, Transportation Systems, Energy, Healthcare and Public Health, Financial Services, Government Services and Facilities Countries/Areas Deployed: Worldwide Company Headquarters Location: Germany Vulnerabilities CVE-2026-89208 The affected product does not properly validate input bounds before accessing packet data. This could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to trigger memory reads outside the intended packet boundaries.

General Recommendations As a general security measure, Siemens strongly recommends to protect network access to devices with appropriate mechanisms. In order to operate the devices in a protected IT environment, Siemens recommends to configure the environment according to Siemens' operational guidelines for Industrial Security (Download: https://www.siemens.com/cert/operational-guidelines-industrial-security), and to follow the recommendations in the product manuals. Additional information on Industrial Security by Siemens can be found at: https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity Additional Resources For further inquiries on security vulnerabilities in Siemens products and solutions, please contact the Siemens ProductCERT: https://www.siemens.com/cert/advisories Terms of Use The use of Siemens Security Advisories is subject to the terms and conditions listed on: https://www.siemens.com/productcert/terms-of-use. Recommended Practices CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of these vulnerabilities. Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the internet. Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks. When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as the connected devices. CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures. CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies. CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets. Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation Strategies. Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.

The worst problems don't always come with a warning. Sometimes they arrive through a service everyone trusts, a device someone bought, or a system nobody thought to check. By the time something looks wrong, the damage may already be done. This week had plenty of that. Trusted connections became a problem. Hardware wasn't as safe as it looked. Old bugs found new victims, and some systems were

Someone built a tool to steal data, then decided it should scare the victim for fun. Yes, that’s an actual feature. And somehow, it fits right in with this week's security stories. The rest gets interesting in different ways. A small permission can lead to a big theft. A trusted login can hide the wrong person. Old bugs are finding new victims, familiar tools are being put to strange uses, and

AI is already part of digital forensics and incident response work, with or without a policy in place to govern it. The issue is that these tools are growing more confident in their own output faster than practitioners are developing reliable ways to verify it. Without governance models and validation standards in place, that gap compounds and rarely stays contained to a workstation: an
