Ravie LakshmananAug 06, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News Apparently, opening the thing is now enough. A repo can run before the first prompt, a package can hide among hundreds, and a harmless-looking PDF can finish the job. This week runs on cheap leverage: exposed servers, recycled bugs, poisoned agent instructions,Seguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJul 30, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News A lot of security still comes down to trusting the wrong screen. This week, that screen might be a login page, an install guide, a recruiter call, or a familiar service behaving slightly wrong. Behind it: reused credentials, exposed systems, quiet loaders,Seguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJul 23, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News Most of this week’s trouble came dressed as something useful. A package stole data. A fake extension opened remote access. A safety app became spyware. An image gave hidden orders to an AI agent. Other threats hid in open systems, weak code,Seguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJul 16, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News A lot of this week’s trouble starts with something that looks close enough. A familiar repo. A useful installer. A harmless sync setting. Then the handoff goes bad, the box starts talking to someone else, and the damage moves faster than theSeguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJul 09, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News Most security mess starts as admin work. A link gets clicked. A tool gets trusted. A bucket name gets reused. A setting stays loose because nobody wants to touch it. This week is full of that kind of damage. Not loud. Not clever.Seguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJul 02, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News This week’s security news is mostly about weak spots. Browsers, bots, sandboxes, AI systems, and email flows all show the same problem in different ways. Everything looks normal until someone tests a small gap and finds a way through. This is notSeguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJun 25, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News It’s dumb out there again. This week has the usual smell of prod on fire and nobody wanting to admit who left the door open — old creds still working, trusted apps doing sketchy crap, browser tricks jumping the fence, and “normal”Seguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJun 18, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News The internet did not break this week. It got used exactly as designed, which is worse. Searches were siphoned through shady browser add-ons. AI chat links turned into malware delivery paths. macOS attacks ran in memory and left almost nothing behind. CloudSeguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJun 11, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News It’s been one of those weeks. You expect the usual noise: recycled malware, sloppy attacks, another easy target getting hit. Instead, there’s a supply chain attack kit in a public repo, a $5,000-a-month RAT that clones browsers, and research showing AI agentsSeguir leyendo
Ravie LakshmananJun 04, 2026Hacking News / Cybersecurity News It got stupid again. The internet still feels held together with tape. Bad plugins, old bugs, fake tools, trusted apps doing shady things. Same mess, new wrapper. And now the weird stuff is normal. Forums go down and come back worse. CheapSeguir leyendo
