Hackers Exploit Shared CDNs to Evade Domain Reputation Filters
Hackers are increasingly abusing shared Content Delivery Network (CDN) infrastructure to bypass domain-reputation-based security controls using a newly identified technique called “Underminr.” Underminr is not a conventional software flaw but an inherent weakness in how modern CDNs handle multi-tenant traffic. CDN providers such as Cloudflare, Akamai, AWS CloudFront, and Fastly route traffic for millions of…

Hackers Hide Linux Malware in SSH-Like Package Filename
Hackers have been observed disguising a malicious Linux payload under an SSH-like filename during software installation, as part of a coordinated supply chain attack targeting developer ecosystems. The attack hinges on a hidden post-install script embedded inside package.json, rather than the expected composer.json used in PHP environments. This subtle placement allows the malicious code to evade detection during routine dependency…

Top 10 Best Static Application Security Testing (SAST) Tools for Security Teams in 2026
The complexity of modern software development requires security to be deeply embedded within the engineering pipeline rather than treated as an afterthought. Whether you are managing extensive front-end codebases or back-end API integrations, catching flaws before code is compiled is crucial. This proactive approach is the essence of Static Application Security Testing (SAST). By identifying…
