Critical ASP.NET core vulnerability earns Microsoft’s highest-ever severity score
The CVSS confusion: Despite Dorrans’ cautious assessment of the actual risk, the 9.9 CVSS rating has caused considerable confusion among developers, with many questioning whether the vulnerability truly warrants such an extreme severity score.Dorrans addressed this directly in the GitHub discussion, explaining that Microsoft’s scoring methodology accounts for worst-case scenarios.”On its own for ASP.NET Core,”…

API Attack Awareness: When Authentication Fails, Exposing APIs to Risk
Authentication issues seem like low-level attacks. But authentication today especially API authentication can be more difficult than people expect. Companies rely on APIs to carry sensitive information every day. If access to those APIs is not properly secured, all the sophisticated security solutions companies use to protect their data elsewhere are completely undermined. […] First…

Static Credentials Expose MCP Servers to Risk
Study Finds Weak Authentication Practices Across AI Agent Servers. Tools developers use to connect artificial intelligence tools with external applications and data sources typically are secured by static credentials such as API keys and personal access tokens, exposing AI agent systems to theft or misuse, research shows.

GhostBat RAT Android Malware Poses as Fake RTO Apps to Steal Banking Data from Indian Users
The GhostBat RAT campaign leverages diverse infection vectors”, WhatsApp, SMS with shortened URLs, GitHub-hosted APKs, and compromised websites”, to distribute malicious Android droppers. Once installed, these droppers employ multi-stage workflows, deliberate ZIP header manipulation, and heavy string obfuscation to evade antivirus detection and reverse”engineering. The threat actors utilize native libraries (.so) to dynamically resolve API…

What AI Reveals About Web Applications”, and Why It Matters
Before an attacker ever sends a payload, they’ve already done the work of understanding how your environment is built. They look at your login flows, your JavaScript files, your error messages, your API documentation, your GitHub repos. These are all clues that help them understand how your systems behave. AI is significantly accelerating reconnaissance and…

EDR-Freeze: Technical Mechanics and Forensic Artifacts Exposed
EDR-Freezeis a proof-of-concept tool that forces endpoint detection and response (EDR) or antivirus processes into a temporary “coma.” Instead of installing a vulnerable driver, it leverages legitimate Windows Error Reporting components, specifically WerFaultSecure.exe and the MiniDumpWriteDump API to pause security processes from user mode. By racing threads at just the right moment, EDR-Freeze suspends all…

Attackers Exploit Defender for Endpoint Cloud API to Bypass Authentication and Disrupt Incident Response
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint’s cloud communication can be abused to bypass authentication, intercept commands, and spoof results, allowing attackers to derail incident response and mislead analysts. Recent research shows that multiple backend endpoints accept requests without effectively validating tokens, enabling unauthenticated manipulation if a machine ID and tenant ID are known. Microsoft reportedly classified the…
