The U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security is calling on Instructure executives to testify about two cyberattacks by the ShinyHunters extortion group that targeted the company's Canvas platform, allowing threat actors to steal student data and disrupt schools during final exams. [...]

Artificial intelligence platforms may be just as susceptible to social engineering as human beings, but they are proving remarkably good at finding security vulnerabilities in human-made computer code. That reality is on full display this month with some of the more widely-used software makers -- including Apple, Google, Microsoft, Mozilla and Oracle -- fixing near record volumes of security bugs, and/or quickening the tempo of their patch releases.

It's the first time in two years with no zero-days. But with 137 flaws to patch, including nine critical ones, admins still have plenty of work to do.

Exim has released security updates to address a severe security issue affecting certain configurations that could enable memory corruption and potential code execution. Exim is an open-source Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) designed for Unix-like systems to receive, route, and deliver email. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-45185 (CVSS score: 9.8), aka Dead.Letter, has been described as a

RubyGems, the standard package manager for the Ruby programming language, has temporarily paused account sign ups following what has been described as a "major malicious attack." "We're dealing with a major malicious attack on RubyGems right now," Maciej Mensfeld, senior product manager for software supply chain security at Mend.io, said in a post on X. "Signups are paused for the time being.

A tokenizer library file present in Hugging Face AI models can be manipulated to hijack the model's outputs and exfiltrate data.

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a new version of the TrickMo Android banking trojan that uses The Open Network (TON) for command-and-control (C2). The new variant, observed by ThreatFabric between January and February 2026, has been observed actively targeting banking and cryptocurrency wallet users in France, Italy, and Austria. "TrickMo relies on a runtime-loaded APK  (dex.module),

As part of Dark Reading's 20th anniversary special coverage, we profile the CISOs, founders, researchers, criminals, and policymakers who rewrote the enterprise risk playbook.

Why do the Riskiest SOC Alerts Go Unanswered? Security operations teams are drowning in alerts. But the real problem isn't always alert volume; it's the blind spots. The most dangerous alerts are the ones no one is investigating. A recent report from The Hacker News examined why certain high-risk alert categories - WAF, DLP, OT/IoT, dark web intelligence, and supply chain signals- consistently

TeamPCP, the threat actor behind the recentsupply chain attack spree, has been linked to the compromise of the npm and PyPI packages from TanStack, UiPath, Mistral AI, OpenSearch, and Guardrails AI as part of a fresh Mini Shai-Hulud campaign. The affected npm packages have been modified to include an obfuscated JavaScript file ("router_init.js") that's designed to profile the execution

Hundreds of npm packages infected by the self-propagating, credential-stealing worm from TeamPCP are related to the open source TanStack ecosystem.

Agentic AI is already running in production environments across many organizations today. It is executing tasks, consuming data, and taking actions — most likely without meaningful involvement from the security team. The industry conversation has largely framed this as a question of policy: allow it, restrict it, or monitor it? However, that framing misses the point.  The more urgent

American educational technology company Instructure, the parent company of Canvas, said it reached an "agreement" with a decentralized cybercrime extortion group after it breached its network and threatened to leak stolen information from thousands of schools and universities. In an update shared on Monday, the Utah-based firm said it "reached an agreement with the unauthorized actor involved in

OpenAI has launched Daybreak, a new cybersecurity initiative that brings together frontier artificial intelligence (AI) model capabilities and Codex Security to help organizations identify and patch vulnerabilities before attackers find a way in using the same issues. "Daybreak combines the intelligence of OpenAI models, the extensibility of Codex as an agentic harness, and our partners across

Apple on Monday officially released iOS 26.5 with support for end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to Rich Communication Services (RCS) in beta as part of a "cross-industry effort" to replace traditional SMS with a more secure alternative. To that end, E2EE RCS messaging is rolling out to iPhone users running iOS 26.5 with supported carriers and Android users on the latest version of Google Messages.

The Federal Communications Commission eased some restrictions and pushed back deadlines for foreign router manufacturers, but the ban is still in place.

The privilege escalation vulnerability, which is similar to other Linux flaws like Copy Fail and Dirty Pipe, may already be under limited exploitation.

Cyber adversaries have long used AI, but now attackers are using large language models to develop exploits and orchestrate complex attacks.

Rough Monday. Somebody poisoned a trusted download again, somebody else turned cloud servers into public housing, and a few crews are still getting into boxes with bugs that should’ve died years ago — the same old holes, same lazy access paths, same “how the hell is this still open” feeling. One report this week basically reads like a guy tripped over root access by accident and decided to stay
