Veeam, Terraform MCP, Django Patch Critical Flaws, Led by CVSS 10.0 Cross-Tenant Bug - The Hacker News

HashiCorp, Veeam, and the Django Software Foundation have patched 11 vulnerabilities across Terraform MCP Server, Veeam Service Provider Console, and Django. Each has a fix available now. Operators should update Terraform MCP Server to version 1.1.0 or later, Veeam Service Provider Console to 9.3.0.35057, and Django to 6.0.8 or 5.2.17. Exposure is configuration-dependent: HashiCorp's bugs affect Streamable HTTP rather than stdio, Veeam's flaws affect version 9 builds before 9.3, and Django's documented admin attack path requires a staff account with view permission for a model containing a spatial field. None of the three advisories says the flaws are under active exploitation, and as of August 5, 2026, none of the eleven CVEs appears in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and no public proof-of-concept has surfaced.

Kali365 Weaponizes Microsoft Authentication Against US Companies: New Enterprise Risk

Kali365 is turning a legitimate Microsoft login into a gateway to corporate data. The phishing kit targets US organizations with attacker-controlled device codes that victims approve on Microsoft's real authentication page. Once access and refresh tokens are issued, attackers may retain access to email, documents, and cloud resources, creating a direct path to data exposure, financial fraud, 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. Security teams should review their detection rules, keep threat-intelligence feeds current, and validate that incident-response runbooks are tested before an incident occurs.

Kali365 Weaponizes Microsoft Authentication Against US Companies: New Enterprise Risk - The Hacker News

Kali365 is turning a legitimate Microsoft login into a gateway to corporate data. The phishing kit targets US organizations with attacker-controlled device codes that victims approve on Microsoft's real authentication page. Once access and refresh tokens are issued, attackers may retain access to email, documents, and cloud resources, creating a direct path to data exposure, financial fraud, operational disruption, and costly incident response. Kali365 is a device code phishing kit built to abuse legitimate Microsoft authentication. ANY.RUN telemetry records more than 80 public sessions linked to the campaign each week, with the United States emerging as its main geographic target. One of these sandbox sessions shows a SharePoint-themed lure used to draw the victim into the authentication flow.

Fake Adobe and Zoom Updates Install ScreenConnect for Persistent Remote Access - The Hacker News

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of an active, multi-wave campaign that employs social engineering lures themed around Adobe and Zoom software updates, business document reviews, and system maintenance utilities to stealthily deploy Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) programs like ConnectWise ScreenConnect. The campaign has been codenamed SMOKE#SCREEN by Securonix Threat Research. "The campaign relies on a toolkit of VBScript droppers, batch file loaders, compiled .NET executables and an HTML phishing page, all ultimately pointing to a live WsgiDAV-based staging server at 207.174.0[.]143:8080," researchers Shikha Sangwan, Akshay Gaikwad, and Aaron Beardslee said in a report shared with The Hacker News. Successful attacks culminate with a ScreenConnect agent installed and beaconing to one of three attacker-controlled relay servers, providing the attackers with persistent remote access to compromised systems. The activity has not been attributed to any known threat actor or group.

How legitimate cloud platforms enable phishers to bypass MFA

We cover a cloud-based AitM attack scenario leveraging service workers and Ultraviolet, and provide detailed phishing hosting statistics across platforms like Cloudflare Workers, Vercel, Netlify, GitHub Pages, and IPFS. 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. Security teams should review their detection rules, keep threat-intelligence feeds current, and validate that incident-response runbooks are tested before an incident occurs.

Chinese Threat Actor Uses Leaked DarkSword Kit to Deploy GHOSTBLADE on iOS - The Hacker News

An unknown Chinese-speaking threat actor has been observed running a campaign targeting Apple iOS devices by leveraging a publicly leaked version of the DarkSword exploit kit. Attack surface management platform Censys said it identified the threat actor running more than 100 web properties, most of which are fake Amazon Web Services (AWS) sign-in pages on a domain that also hosts the exploit toolkit. "The hosting concentrates in Hong Kong but reaches into Japan, the United States, and Europe," Censys researcher Aidan Holland said in an analysis published on July 31, 2026. DarkSword, discovered and detailed earlier this year by Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG), iVerify, and Lookout, refers to a full-chain exploit kit that is believed to have been used by commercial surveillance vendors and suspected state-sponsored actors in disparate campaigns targeting Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia, and Ukraine since at least November 2025.

PNLD Breach Exposes U.K. Police and Government Contact Details on Dark Web - The Hacker News

The Police National Legal Database (PNLD) has confirmed that police, government and customer contact information was compromised and published on the dark web. The data included names, organisations and work email addresses belonging to police officers, police staff, criminal justice professionals, government partners and customers. The incident, identified on July 26, also exposed some names and email addresses belonging to people who had submitted questions through Ask the Police. That exposure could make phishing messages targeting named officers appear more convincing, according to UK government guidance. PNLD said, "There is no evidence to suggest that passwords or other security credentials have been compromised." The service provides legal information, products and services to UK police forces and criminal justice organisations. It is not the Police National Computer or the Police National Database, is not a crime-recording system, and does not hold confidential information about victims, witnesses or offenders.

Coldcard Hardware Wallet Flaw Linked to $70 Million Bitcoin Theft in 41 Minutes - The Hacker News

An attacker drained 1,196 Bitcoin addresses in 41 minutes on July 30, taking 1,082.65 BTC worth about $70.2 million at the time. Galaxy Research mapped the sweep and tied it to a firmware flaw in Coldcard, the Bitcoin-only hardware wallet made by Canadian firm Coinkite. A March 2021 firmware integration error routed seed generation to a deterministic software pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) instead of the STM32 hardware random number generator (RNG). Block says an attacker who can determine or sufficiently constrain the device UID, timer state, and prior RNG-call history can reproduce candidate output streams offline without accessing the device. Candidate seeds can then be checked by deriving their addresses and comparing them with public blockchain data. Coinkite shipped emergency firmware for every affected model and release track on July 31, but installing it does not repair an existing seed. Coinkite tells owners with exposed seeds to generate a new one on patched firmware and move their coins.
