IAM Compliance Requirements and Best Practices

IAM compliance is the practice of demonstrating that identity and access controls are not only documented but actually enforced across users, applications, infrastructure, and non-human identities.

Adobe Commerce CVE-2026-71362 Comes Under Attack Shortly After Public Disclosure

Hackers began targeting a critical Adobe Commerce flaw that could let unauthenticated attackers hijack customer accounts and access private data. Hackers began targeting CVE-2026-71362 (CVSS score of 9.1), a critical Adobe Commerce flaw, shortly after its public disclosure. The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to switch customer sessions, hijack accounts and access private data. Cybersecurity firm Sansec blocked the first exploitation attempts after Adobe published its advisory. The flaw affects Commerce, Commerce B2B and Magento Open Source versions through the July 2026 patches. Adobe released an isolated fix and urged users to patch. “Adobe has released APSB26-92 as isolated patch files. The update fixes seven vulnerabilities, including an unauthenticated customer account takeover with a CVSS score of 9.1. Sansec Shield already blocks exploitation attempts.” reads the advisory published by Sansec. “Sansec reviewed the patch and confirmed that the vulnerability lets attackers switch a customer session to another customer account. This gives them access to the victim’s account and private customer data.” Sansec pointed out that an attacker can exploit the flaw without existing account, administrator privileges, or user interaction. Adobe fixed how Magento handles customer identity in account sessions. The remaining flaws include stored cross-site scripting and authorization issues.

"City-Forum" data-theft attacks target Salesforce, ServiceNow portals

An ongoing data theft campaign uses custom tools to steal data exposed to anonymous users through Salesforce Experience Cloud and ServiceNow customer portals. The data-theft campaign, dubbed City-Forum by SaaS security firm Reco, has been traced to a single server that has targeted multiple organizations worldwide. These organizations include telecommunications companies, banks and financial services firms, enterprise software vendors, security and data privacy companies, and public-sector portals. Reco says the attacks are ongoing, with activity continuing to increase. Reco says all of the attacks originate from the IP address 158.220.87.79, hosted by German VPS provider Contabo, and almost always use the default Go-http-client/1.1 user agent when downloading data. This IP address is associated with the city-forum.com domain, which has resolved to the server since at least March 2025, indicating that the infrastructure has remained in place for more than a year.

Hackers leverage new Microsoft SharePoint exploit in attacks

A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for a critical Microsoft SharePoint vulnerability, published by cybersecurity company Rapid7 on Tuesday, is already being used in attacks. Tracked as CVE-2026-55040, this authentication bypass security flaw in the JWT token validation pipeline can be exploited by attackers without privileges to perform operations as a SharePoint site user or administrator. Microsoft patched the vulnerability as part of the July 2026 Patch Tuesday updates, when it warned customers to patch systems running SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016 and SharePoint Server 2019. "The authentication feature could be bypassed as this vulnerability allows impersonation," it said. "Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to disclose files and modify data, but the attacker cannot impact the availability of the system."

Malicious LiteLLM Releases Tied to Trivy Hack May Have Exposed 2,100+ Organizations

Two malicious LiteLLM releases sat on PyPI for about 40 minutes in March carrying credential-stealing code capable of harvesting cloud keys, SSH keys, Kubernetes tokens, database passwords, and other secrets from systems that installed them. Threat intelligence firm CloudSEK now says a dataset it obtained, built from roughly 434,000 files the attackers captured, maps potential exposure to more

When Credentials Are No Longer Enough: Device Trust in the AI Era

AI is making phishing, credential theft, and social engineering faster and more efficient, while traditional trust signals such as passwords, MFA, IP reputation, and geolocation become easier to bypass. Specops explains why organizations are increasingly adding device trust to their Zero Trust strategies. Security research like this is a reminder that visibility into endpoints, identity, and network traffic remains the foundation of any effective defense program. Beyond patching, organizations should inventory exposed services, disable unused functionality, and require multi-factor authentication wherever it can be deployed.

9.2 Million Israeli Records Sold as a New Breach Are 20 Years Old

A seller claims to offer Israel’s 2026 population registry, but checks show the 9.2 million records are authentic data dating back to 2005. A vendor on a well-known leak forum claims to have breached Israel’s Population and Immigration Authority and is selling the entire national registry, 9.2 million records covering essentially the whole country. Ransomnews […] The reporting underscores the importance of treating third-party software and infrastructure as part of your own attack surface, since trust in a vendor is only as strong as the vendor’s own security posture. Beyond patching, organizations should inventory exposed services, disable unused functionality, and require multi-factor authentication wherever it can be deployed.

LexisNexis shuts down services after suspicious activity on servers

LexisNexis took its Diligence, Metabase API, and Newsdesk services offline as part of its response to unusual activity on servers hosted and managed by an unnamed third-party vendor. This development is consistent with broader industry trends, where threat actors increasingly reuse proven techniques and commodity tooling rather than investing in novel malware. Security teams should review their detection rules, keep threat-intelligence feeds current, and validate that incident-response runbooks are tested before an incident occurs.
