Cyber security

Credential and supply-chain abuse dominated: ConnectWise, OpenCode and a malicious npm package. Drupal's critical RCE patches come with an explicit warning that exploitation is likely soon. Several items arrived with thin summaries, so scope is unclear.

What happened

  • ConnectWise suspended Cloud Backup after attackers used seven application identities to compromise Microsoft 365 tenants. BleepingComputer calls it a supply-chain attack and says customer access was shut down. M365 admins should audit enterprise app registrations and consent grants. BleepingComputer ↗

  • Drupal patched two critical remote code execution vulnerabilities in all supported versions and warned exploits may emerge soon. The summary gives no CVE ids or version numbers. BleepingComputer ↗

  • The npm package 'imgdecode' carries a shellcode loader in a Windows native addon and is tied to the MALFEX campaign. Audit lockfiles and CI caches for it. The Hacker News ↗

  • OpenCode disclosed a breach that leaked user credentials, per a post from its official account. No details on how many users or which credentials were affected. Hacker News (front page) ↗

  • PwnEscape reportedly describes a guest-to-host KVM escape tracked as CVE-2026-99999. The summary has no details on affected versions, severity or patch status, so verify against the write-up and vendor advisories. Lobsters ↗

  • The Register reports that cybercriminals are increasingly targeting physical building systems such as access control and HVAC rather than only stealing data. Building management networks are often poorly segmented from corporate IT. The Register ↗

  • The Register describes a Windows command prompt unexpectedly appearing on an OOHPod, apparently tied to a logged-in shell left unattended. It is a low-stakes reminder that public-facing kiosks need locked-down sessions. The Register ↗
