A new macOS malware dubbed 'KandyKorn' has been spotted in a campaign attributed to the North Korean Lazarus hacking group, targeting blockchain engineers of a cryptocurrency exchange platform.
The attackers impersonate members of the cryptocurrency community on Discord channels to spread Python-based modules that trigger a multi-stage KandyKorn infection chain.
Elastic Security discovered and attributed the attacks to Lazarus based on overlaps with past campaigns concerning the employed techniques, network infrastructure, code-signing certificates, and custom Lazarus detection rules.
On October 27, Rapid7 Managed Detection & Response identified suspected exploitation of Apache ActiveMQ CVE-2023-46604 in 2 separate customer environments.
The coalition aims to encourage members to no longer pay ransoms demanded by criminal hacking groups to discourage attacks from taking place.
Apple's "Find My" location network can be abused by malicious actors to stealthily transmit sensitive information captured by keyloggers installed in keyboards.
The Find My network and application is designed to help users locate lost or misplaced Apple devices, including iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, AirPods, and Apple Tags.
The service relies on GPS and Bluetooth data crowd-sourced from millions of Apple devices worldwide to find devices reported as lost or stolen, even if those are offline.
Apple AirTags: Arbitrary data can be uploaded from non-internet-connected devices by sending Find My BLE broadcasts to nearby Apple devices. We're releasing an ESP32 firmware that turns the microcontroller into an (upload only) modem, and a macOS application to retrieve, decode and display the uploaded data.
Microsoft Exchange is impacted by four zero-day vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit remotely to execute arbitrary code or disclose sensitive information on affected installations.

Apache ActiveMQ is a Java-language open source message broker that facilitates communication between servers.
Microsoft is making big changes to its cybersecurity approach. It comes after major cloud attacks in recent years and will mean an overhaul to how software is built inside Microsoft.
In recent years, cybercriminals have become increasingly professional — fraudsters have consistently been improving their skills, making less crucial mistakes, and creating various “as-a-service” businesses to help lower-skilled threat actors launch scams and attacks, allowing the latter to run full cybercrime operations.
There are different types of cybercrime services that exist today, including malware-as-a-service, where cybercriminals develop and sell malware services to other malicious actors; the service also includes creating and spreading malware types such as ransomware on compromised hosts. Meanwhile, other services require the use of multiple social media accounts to be successfully carried out, such as misinformation, spamming, and malware propagation. Indeed, it’s not uncommon for cybercriminals to send thousands of spam messages using thousands of accounts on social media platforms. But how do they manage to automate all of it?
Researchers speculate that Chinese authorities may be responsible for turning off one of the internet’s most prolific IoT botnets.

FIRST announces CVSS v4.0, the latest version of the Common Vulnerability Scoring System. Discover how this update addresses critical vulnerabilities.
L'assureur qui veut s'opposer au paiement de la prestation d’assurance suite à une cyberattaque, en invoquant les sanctions américaines, doit prouver que la cyberattaque a servi les intérêts d'une entité visée par ces sanctions et qu'il risque ainsi concrètement d'être réprimandé par l'autorité américaine compétente. Le simple fait que le type de logiciel utilisé pour la cyberattaque en question soit habituellement déployé par un groupe de cyberpirates sous sanction (in casu Evil Corp) ne suffit pas pour refuser le paiement de la prestation d’assurance.
Octo Tempest employs tactics that many of its targets aren't prepared for.

La nouvelle loi sur la protection des données a introduit l’obligation d’établir, dans certains cas, une analyse d’impact relative à la protection des données personnelles (AIPD). Elle vise à identifier préalablement les risques potentiellement élevés pour la personnalité et les droits fondamentaux, afin de prendre les mesures adéquates pour les réduire à un niveau acceptable. Si l’exercice peut faire peur, il suffit de suivre quelques étapes très concrètes.
