Attempts to exploit a critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-71362) in Adobe's Commerce and Magento e-commerce platforms have been detected, potentially allowing attackers to hijack customer accounts. The flaw is described as an incorrect authorization vulnerability that could be leveraged to "gain elevated access to sensitive resources" without authentication and is one of the seven issues that Adobe addressed in a security update yesterday. Although the software vendor states in the advisory that it is not aware of exploits in the wild for any of the fixed flaws, eCommerce security company Sansec says that its Shield web application firewall (WAF) is already blocking CVE-2026-71362 exploitation attempts. According to Sansec, exploiting the vulnerability requires "no existing account, administrator privileges or user interaction."

Based on current cybersecurity best practices and frameworks, the resource package outlines cost-effective, actionable and customizable steps that K-12 institutions can take to develop and maintain effective cybersecurity programs.
A newly disclosed flaw in the way OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google carried hidden AI reasoning between API calls let researchers recover internal reasoning and secrets from session logs, including API keys and passwords. The weakness affected encrypted reasoning objects used by the providers' reasoning APIs, where a block created in one session could be replayed into another and, during testing,
Global supply chain and distribution giant Wesco has confirmed in a statement to BleepingComputer that it is investigating a cybersecurity incident. The company's statement comes after data extortion group ExfilSquad claimed to have stolen sensitive information from Wesco and leaked it on their data leak site. Jennifer Sniderman, Vice President of Corporate Communications at Wesco, said that the incident involves the company's cloud CRM environment. “Wesco is aware of a claim of CRM data exfiltration by a third party,” Sniderman told BleepingComputer. “We have worked with our cloud CRM vendor on the matter, and we do not believe that there is a risk to sensitive data.” The company representative added that Wesco has not experienced any business disruption, and all operations continue as normal.
Mozilla has scrapped the cryptographic key behind Firefox and Thunderbird downloads for Linux after an unencrypted copy of it was committed by mistake to one of the company's own private code repositories. That key is how a user, or a Linux distribution packaging the browser, confirms a downloaded Firefox tarball came from Mozilla and was not tampered with. That decision carries a cost for
Mozilla has scrapped the cryptographic key behind Firefox and Thunderbird downloads for Linux after an unencrypted copy of it was committed by mistake to one of the company's own private code repositories. That key is how a user, or a Linux distribution packaging the browser, confirms a downloaded Firefox tarball came from Mozilla and was not tampered with. That decision carries a cost for anyone who checks what they download: files signed with the old key stop verifying once a user imports the revocation. That covers older Firefox and Thunderbird downloads, not just future ones. Nothing so far points to anyone outside the company getting hold of the key. The repository was private, the browser maker says a review of available audit records turned up no sign of unauthorized access, and everyone who could see it already had legitimate access anyway. Mozilla revoked it regardless.
In July 2026, Kaspersky experts detected a new attack by the Head Mare group. Previously, we classified them as hacktivists, but now we define them as an APT group due to the sophistication of their TTPs and the absence of destructive activity (encryption, wiping) in the targeted infrastructures. In this latest campaign, the attackers exploited a chain of vulnerabilities in the TrueConf video conferencing server and replaced the original TrueConf client installers with infected versions that installed the PhantomCore malware on the system. An investigation of the compromised server revealed that the attackers used a combination of two new vulnerabilities (assigned internal identifiers KLCERT-26-057 and KLCERT-26-058), allowing them to execute arbitrary code with the highest privileges. This web shell was used for the following activities:
Cybersecurity researchers have warned of a supply chain compromise impacting WordPress plugin vendor BdThemes, prompting the content management systems (CMS) platform's plugins team to temporarily disable their downloads. "Unlike traditional software supply chain attacks, zero source code files were modified within the official WordPress.org repository," Wordfence researcher Paolo Tresso said. Supply chain compromises are especially dangerous because trust in a vendor’s distribution channel is abused to reach a much wider set of victims than a direct attack ever could. Beyond patching, organizations should inventory exposed services, disable unused functionality, and require multi-factor authentication wherever it can be deployed.

"Unlike traditional software supply chain attacks, zero source code files were modified within the official WordPress.org repository," Wordfence researcher Paolo Tresso said. "Instead, threat actors poisoned a static remote JSON data stream fetched by an administrative promotional banner component." Users visiting the listings for each of the aforementioned plugins on the WordPress plugins directory are displayed the message that they have been closed as of either August 7 or 8, 2026, and are not available for download pending a "full review." The issue, per the WordPress security company, is rooted in an internal component called Biggopti that's shipped along with the plugins. The system is designed to pull promotional banners from their API server and render them in the WordPress admin dashboard by fetching relevant JSON files from a DigitalOcean Spaces bucket.
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.
