A critical authentication bypass vulnerability has emerged in Nokia’s CloudBand Infrastructure Software (CBIS) and Nokia Container Service (NCS) Manager API, designated as CVE-2023-49564. This high-severity flaw, scoring 9.6 on the CVSS v3.1 scale, enables unauthorized attackers to circumvent authentication mechanisms through specially crafted HTTP headers, potentially granting complete access to restricted API endpoints without valid […] The post Nokia CBIS/NCS Manager API Vulnerability Let Attackers Bypass Authentication appeared first on Cyber Security News.

In early 2025, cybersecurity researchers observed an unprecedented collaboration between two Russian APT groups targeting Ukrainian organizations. Historically, Gamaredon has focused on broad spear-phishing campaigns against government and critical infrastructure, while Turla has specialized in high-value cyberespionage using sophisticated implants. Their joint operations mark a significant escalation: Gamaredon gains initial access using its established toolkit, […] The post Russian Hacking Groups Gamaredon and Turla Attacking Organizations to Deploy Kazuar Backdoor appeared first on Cyber Security News.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued a critical warning regarding sophisticated malware campaigns targeting Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM) systems. Cybercriminals are actively exploiting two critical vulnerabilities, CVE-2025-4427 and CVE-2025-4428, to deploy advanced persistent threats that enable complete system compromise and arbitrary code execution on targeted servers. The attack campaign emerged shortly […] The post CISA Warns of Hackers Exploiting Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile Vulnerabilities to Deploy Malware appeared first on Cyber Security News.

The emergence of a new campaign weaponizing legitimate remote monitoring and management software has alarmed security teams worldwide. Attackers are distributing trojanized installers for ConnectWise ScreenConnect—now known as ConnectWise Control—to deliver dual payloads: the widely used AsyncRAT and a custom PowerShell-based RAT. By leveraging trusted software footprints and open directories, adversaries bypass signature-based defenses and […] The post Beware of Weaponized ScreenConnect App That Delivers AsyncRAT and PowerShell RAT appeared first on Cyber Security News.

Cybersecurity researchers have identified a potential connection between two Yemen-based cybercriminal organizations, the Belsen Group and ZeroSevenGroup, following an extensive investigation into their operational patterns and attack methodologies.
