Hackers are actively exploiting a newly disclosed N-able N-central zero-day vulnerability dubbed "4EverAble2Shell" to compromise servers and deploy cryptocurrency miners, with researchers reporting at least 21 affected systems, including 19 running the company's latest security update.

Public exploit code released earlier this week claims that a local Windows user can gain SYSTEM privileges through the Common Log File System driver. The proof of concept, called SignDrop, targets a log-authentication feature added to the driver last year. It abuses how clfs.sys creates companion files when a privileged process opens a prepared log, using path redirection to take control of

Security researcher Abdelhamid Naceri (also known as Nightmare Eclipse) has released a new Windows zero-day exploit that can let attackers gain SYSTEM privileges.

Citrix has released patches for multiple critical security flaws impacting NetScaler ADC, Citrix NetScaler Gateway, and NetScaler Console that could lead to denial-of-service (DoS) or an authentication bypass. The critical vulnerabilities that impact NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway are listed below - CVE-2026-120868 (CVSS score: 9.3) - A memory overflow vulnerability in Packet

Cybersecurity researchers have found that lookalike domains masquerading as artificial intelligence (AI) tools are being used to serve ClickFix-style lures, browser-hijacking malware, and a set of extensions that hijack user searches. This delivery pattern has been codenamed TypoPrompting by Island. "AI-app lookalikes that turn an attempt to reach a familiar tool into a prompt to verify,

The ongoing campaign targeting ConnectWise ScreenConnect deployments involves the exploitation of a now-patched critical security flaw in the remote access software, and not a new vulnerability, it has emerged. Blackpoint Cyber's Adversary Pursuit Group (APG), which shared the details with The Hacker News, said the recovered attacker toolkit exploits CVE-2026-84869 (CVSS score: 9.9), an

Security teams have more alerts, logs, and monitoring tools than ever. Yet when an attack happens, one simple question can still take too long to answer: Who or what is behind this activity, and what can they access? A suspicious login might belong to an employee. An unusual API call could come from a machine account. Or an AI agent might be accessing sensitive systems using permissions nobody

Since mid-August 2026, a phishing operation has been stealing live Google sessions from corporate users. Every check defenders normally lean on to judge a link came back clean, and the operator designed it that way on purpose. The Threat Research team at Material Security spotted the campaign and has since taken down hundreds of attacker domains in an effort the team calls Operation CloudFire.

PTC has released patches for a new critical vulnerability impacting Windchill and FlexPLM software that, if successfully exploited, could result in remote code execution. The security flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-126325, carries a CVSS v4 score of 9.2 out of a maximum of 10.0. It has been described as a case of improper input validation and deserialization of untrusted data that could result in
