The D-Link EXO AX4800 (DIR-X4860) router is vulnerable to remote unauthenticated command execution that could lead to complete device takeovers by attackers with access to the HNAP port.
Hackers have started to target a critical severity vulnerability in the WP Automatic plugin for WordPress to create user accounts with administrative privileges and to plant backdoors for long-term access.
The WordPress Shortcode Addons plugin version 3.2.5 and below is prone to an unauthenticated function injection vulnerability.
Every version of the PuTTY tools from 0.68 to 0.80 inclusive has a critical vulnerability in the code that generates signatures from ECDSA private keys which use the NIST P521 curve. (PuTTY, or Pageant, generates a signature from a key when using it to authenticate you to an SSH server.)
Researchers uncover a fresh wave of the Raspberry Robin campaign spreading malware through malicious Windows Script Files (WSFs) since March 2024.

As the creator of the world’s first smart home cybersecurity hub, Bitdefender regularly audits popular IoT hardware for vulnerabilities. This research paper is part of a broader program that aims to shed light on the security of the world’s best-sellers in the IoT space. This report covers vulnerabilities discovered while researching the LG WebOS TV operating system.
A threat researcher has disclosed a new arbitrary command injection and hardcoded backdoor flaw in multiple end-of-life D-Link Network Attached Storage (NAS) device models.
In a previous blog post we described a process injection vulnerability affecting all AppKit-based macOS applications. This research was presented at Black Hat USA 2022, DEF CON 30 and Objective by the Sea v5. This vulnerability was actually the second universal process injection vulnerability we reported to Apple, but it was fixed earlier than the first. Because it shared some parts of the exploit chain with the first one, there were a few steps we had to skip in the earlier post and the presentations. Now that the first vulnerability has been fixed in macOS 13.0 (Ventura) and improved in macOS 14.0 (Sonoma), we can detail the first one and thereby fill in the blanks of the previous post.
This vulnerability was independently found by Adam Chester and written up here under the name “DirtyNIB”. While the exploit chain demonstrated by Adam shares a lot of similarity to ours, our attacks trigger automatically and do not require a user to click a button, making them a lot more stealthy. Therefore we decided to publish our own version of this write-up as well.

Ivanti warned customers to immediately patch a critical severity Standalone Sentry vulnerability reported by NATO Cyber Security Centre researchers.
A new Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack targets application-layer protocols that draw on the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) for end-to-end communication. The vulnerability affects both legacy and contemporary protocols. Discovered by Christian Rossow and Yepeng Pan, the attack puts an estimated 300,000 Internet hosts and their networks at risk.
Akamai security researcher Tomer Peled recently discovered a high-severity vulnerability in Kubernetes that was assigned CVE-2023-5528 with a CVSS score of 7.2.
The vulnerability allows remote code execution with SYSTEM privileges on all Windows endpoints within a Kubernetes cluster. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker needs to apply malicious YAML files on the cluster.
This vulnerability can lead to full takeover on all Windows nodes in a cluster.
This vulnerability can be exploited on default installations of Kubernetes (earlier than version 1.28.4), and was tested against both on-prem deployments and Azure Kubernetes Service.
In this blog post, we provide a proof-of-concept YAML file as well as an Open Policy Agent (OPA) rule for blocking this vulnerability.
Like Spectre, the new exploit could give attackers a way to access sensitive information from system memory, and take other malicious actions.
Czech software giant JetBrains harshly criticized security company Rapid7 this week following a dispute over two recently-discovered vulnerabilities.
