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.

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."
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.
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.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) warned that hackers are exploiting a critical-severity Progress Kemp LoadMaster command injection vulnerability. Because attacks of this type can go unnoticed for extended periods, the window between initial compromise and detection is often the deciding factor in the eventual impact. Beyond patching, organizations should inventory exposed services, disable unused functionality, and require multi-factor authentication wherever it can be deployed.
IEH was breached by a phishing attack that exposed its Microsoft 365 inbox, including emails and potentially export-controlled military data. IEH Corporation is a U.S. defense and aerospace manufacturer based in Brooklyn, New York. The company specializes in high-reliability electrical connectors, particularly hyperboloid connectors used in demanding military and aerospace environments. Its connectors are used […] Because attacks of this type can go unnoticed for extended periods, the window between initial compromise and detection is often the deciding factor in the eventual impact.

N-able has released a fresh round of hotfixes for N‑central as part of its investigation into ongoing exploitation of a recently disclosed security flaw in the Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) product. "We are proactively expanding protections in response to ongoing monitoring of threat actors as they evolve their attack techniques," the company said. "This is not a duplicate of our 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.

A recent wave of cyber attacks targeting financial services, private equity, and professional services has been attributed to a data extortion group known as UNC6671. "UNC6671 continues to rely on voice phishing (vishing) to target enterprise employees, posing as IT help desk staff facilitating mandatory, urgent security migrations. Significantly, the threat actor often contacts employees via their personal mobile devices," Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) and Mandiant said in a report. These calls are designed to trick victims into spoofed login portals where adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) infrastructure intercepts credentials and multi-factor authentication (MFA) tokens. The threat actors then leverage the captured data to establish session persistence and deploy automated Python and PowerShell scripts for data exfiltration from enterprise cloud environments and SaaS applications, including Microsoft 365 and Okta.
Entra ID researcher Dirk-jan Mollema demonstrated that malware already running in a signed-in Windows session can silently use the victim's Windows Hello for Business key to authenticate to Microsoft Entra ID. The attacker can then establish longer-term cloud access, register a device it controls, obtain a Primary Refresh Token (PRT), and add further authentication methods where tenant policies 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.
Entra ID researcher Dirk-jan Mollema demonstrated that malware already running in a signed-in Windows session can silently use the victim's Windows Hello for Business key to authenticate to Microsoft Entra ID. The attacker can then establish longer-term cloud access, register a device it controls, obtain a Primary Refresh Token (PRT), and add further authentication methods where tenant policies permit. On TPM-backed systems, the attacker does not extract the private key, recover the PIN, or trigger a biometric prompt. Windows ticketing keeps private-key operations available while the user is interactively signed in, allowing code running as the user to ask Windows to sign authentication data. Administrator privileges are not required. The technique requires code execution in the victim's signed-in session. Mollema describes the behavior as a consequence of how Windows Hello for Business works and says it was left as-is. The disclosure does not report active exploitation or victims. Mollema recommends monitoring unexpected device registrations.
