Cybersecurity researchers have detailed four different vulnerabilities in a core component of the Windows task scheduling service that could be exploited by local attackers to achieve privilege escalation and erase logs to cover up evidence of malicious activities.
The issues have been uncovered in a binary named “schtasks.exe,” which enables an administrator to create, delete, query, change,

Google on Wednesday revealed that it suspended over 39.2 million advertiser accounts in 2024, with a majority of them identified and blocked by its systems before it could serve harmful ads to users.
In all, the tech giant said it stopped 5.1 billion bad ads, restricted 9.1 billion ads, and blocked or restricted ads on 1.3 billion pages last year. It also suspended over 5 million accounts for

Threat actors are leveraging an artificial intelligence (AI) powered presentation platform named Gamma in phishing attacks to direct unsuspecting users to spoofed Microsoft login pages.
“Attackers weaponize Gamma, a relatively new AI-based presentation tool, to deliver a link to a fraudulent Microsoft SharePoint login portal,” Abnormal Security researchers Callie Hinman Baron and Piotr Wojtyla

Introduction
Cyber threats targeting supply chains have become a growing concern for businesses across industries. As companies continue to expand their reliance on third-party vendors, cloud-based services, and global logistics networks, cybercriminals are exploiting vulnerabilities within these interconnected systems to launch attacks. By first infiltrating a third-party vendor with undetected

Cybersecurity researchers have unearthed a new controller component associated with a known backdoor called BPFDoor as part of cyber attacks targeting telecommunications, finance, and retail sectors in South Korea, Hong Kong, Myanmar, Malaysia, and Egypt in 2024.
“The controller could open a reverse shell,” Trend Micro researcher Fernando Mercês said in a technical report published earlier in

The China-linked threat actor known as UNC5174 has been attributed to a new campaign that leverages a variant of a known malware dubbed SNOWLIGHT and a new open-source tool called VShell to infect Linux systems.
“Threat actors are increasingly using open source tools in their arsenals for cost-effectiveness and obfuscation to save money and, in this case, plausibly blend in with the pool of

A critical security vulnerability has been disclosed in the Apache Roller open-source, Java-based blogging server software that could allow malicious actors to retain unauthorized access even after a password change.
The flaw, assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2025-24859, carries a CVSS score of 10.0, indicating maximum severity. It affects all versions of Roller up to and including 6.1.4.
