Attackers poisoned AI software recommendations to redirect users searching for tools like CrystalDiskInfo and HWMonitor to malicious download sites distributing ScreenConnect, rogue DLLs, and GPU mining malware.
More than 150 malicious domains were identified.

The package, “mouse5212-super-formatter,” used npm postinstall scripts, hard-coded GitHub tokens, and fake network logs to hide the theft.

🚨 BREAKING: New Linux zero-day "Dirty Frag" lets ANY local user become root on most major distros.
The PoC is already public, half of it isn't patched yet.
Discovered by researcher Hyunwoo Kim, the exploit chains two kernel bugs and sits in the same family as Dirty Pipe and Copy Fail.
▪️ CVE-2026-43284 (xfrm-ESP Page-Cache Write): patched in mainline Linux.
▪️ CVE-2026-43500 (RxRPC Page-Cache Write): NO PATCH yet.
The exploit is reliable by design. Attackers don't have to win a timing race, the system won't crash and alert anyone if it fails, and it succeeds nearly every run.
The embargo got broken before distros could ship fixes, so the working code is now sitting on GitHub.
Confirmed working on: Ubuntu 24.04.4, RHEL 10.1, openSUSE Tumbleweed, CentOS Stream 10, AlmaLinux 10, Fedora 44.
🚨 CRITICAL CYBERSECURITY ALERT: DeepLoad AI Malware Targeting Nigerian Organisation
A new AI-powered malware called DeepLoad is actively targeting Nigerian government agencies, banks, businesses, and individuals.

Up to 95% of access to risky tools is unnecessary, quietly expanding attack surfaces.

‼️🚨 Microsoft calls this "intended behaviour," so here we go.
How to dump the credentials of every user stored in Microsoft Edge:
1. Open Edge. Don't browse anywhere, just open it.
2. Flip to Task Manager, find Edge, expand the task.
3. Highlight the "browser" sub-task, right-click, and choose "Create Memory Dump."
4. Open the dump file and look for credentials.
The logged-in Windows user can dump every stored Edge credential with no additional rights. Which means any malware that user executes has those credentials for the asking.

One of the most frequent questions I'm asked is "how do you stay up to date on malware stuff?"
Okay, here is a pro tip:
1. Google OTX AlienVault
2. Make account
3. Look at latest
4. Scroll until you find posts from a guy named Petr something-something (has numbers in his name).
4. Follow his account
He monitors all the big malware places and shares the URL, hashes, etc. from malware vendors. I've been following this random ass dude for years and getting updates on everything.
I have no idea who he is. I don't know where he's from. All I know is his setup is absolute fire and he keeps you up to date on literally everything malware related 24/7 365. He also has stuff from vendors in China, Russia, Japan, etc.
Every morning I log into OTX and check up on my boy Petr to see what fire he's bringing me. I love him.
There has been more vulnerabilities (Zero-days) disclosed without a patch since AI's first discovery.
I wonder how many are yet to be disclosed or are actively exploited.
‼️🚨 BREAKING: An AI found a Linux kernel zero-day that roots every distribution since 2017. The exploit fits in 732 bytes of Python. Patch your kernel ASAP.
The vulnerability is CVE-2026-31431, nicknamed "Copy Fail," disclosed today by Theori. It has been sitting quietly in the Linux kernel for nine years.
Most Linux privilege-escalation bugs are picky. They need a precise timing window (a "race"), or specific kernel addresses leaked from somewhere, or careful tuning per distribution. Copy Fail needs none of that. It is a straight-line logic mistake that works on the first try, every time, on every mainstream Linux box.
The attacker just needs a normal user account on the machine. From there, the script asks the kernel to do some encryption work, abuses how that work is wired up, and ends up writing 4 bytes into a memory area called the "page cache" (Linux's high-speed copy of files in RAM). Those 4 bytes can be aimed at any program the system trusts, like /usr/bin/su, the shortcut to becoming root.
Result: the next time anyone runs that program, it lets the attacker in as root.
What should worry most: the corruption never touches the file on disk. It only exists in Linux's in-memory copy of that file. If you imaged the hard drive afterwards, the on-disk file would match the official package hash exactly. Reboot the machine, or just put it under memory pressure (any normal system load that needs the RAM), and the cached copy reloads fresh from disk.
Containers do not help either. The page cache is shared across the whole host, so a process inside a container can use this bug to compromise the underlying server and reach into other tenants.
The original sin was a 2017 "in-place optimization" in a kernel crypto module called algif_aead. It was meant to make encryption slightly faster. The change broke a critical safety assumption, and nobody noticed for nine years. That bug then rode every kernel update from 2017 to today.
This vulnerability affects the following:
🔴 Shared servers (dev boxes, jump hosts, build servers): any user becomes root
🔴 Kubernetes and container clusters: one compromised pod escapes to the host
🔴 CI runners (GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins): a malicious pull request becomes root on the runner
🔴 Cloud platforms running user code (notebooks, agent sandboxes, serverless functions): a tenant becomes host root
Timeline:
🔴 March 23, 2026: reported to the Linux kernel security team
🔴 April 1: patch committed to mainline (commit a664bf3d603d)
🔴 April 22: CVE assigned
🔴 April 29: public disclosure
Mitigation: update your kernel to a build that includes mainline commit a664bf3d603d. If you cannot patch immediately, turn off the vulnerable module:
echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif.conf
rmmod algif_aead 2>/dev/null || true
For environments that run untrusted code (containers, sandboxes, CI runners), block access to the kernel's AF_ALG crypto interface entirely, even after patching. Almost nothing legitimate needs it, and blocking it shuts the door on this whole class of bug...
