Ransomware on Autopilot, and a Pile of Critical Bugs Under Fire

Sysdig documented the first end-to-end ransomware operation run by an LLM, with an operator dubbed JADEPUFFER exploiting CVE-2025-3248 in Langflow to break in, steal credentials, move laterally, and encrypt a production database. Adobe patched seven CVSS 10.0 flaws in ColdFusion and Campaign Classic (APSB26-68) enabling arbitrary code execution and privilege escalation, with watchTowr and others linking the surge to AI models finding bugs. Google and the FBI disrupted the NetNut/Popa residential proxy botnet affecting ~2 million devices and linked to 316 distinct threat clusters running cybercrime and espionage. Multiple critical vulnerabilities in SharePoint (CVE-2026-45659), NetScaler (CVE-2026-8451), Oracle E-Business Suite (CVE-2026-46817), and WinRAR (CVE-2026-14191) are under active exploitation, with CitrixBleed-successor CVE-2026-8451 exploited within days of disclosure using public PoC code.

FortiBleed Burns 86,000 FortiGate Devices as Novo Nordisk Loses 1.3TB — Including AI Models — to a Leaked GitHub Token

FortiBleed has compromised ~86,644 internet-facing FortiGate devices in a credential-harvesting campaign, while a leaked GitHub token gave FulcrumSec access to Novo Nordisk, exfiltrating 1.3TB including unreleased drug formulas and internal AI models. Mastra npm packages were trojanized by Sapphire Sleet (North Korea–nexus), and multiple AI infrastructure flaws emerged: SearchLeak (CVE-2026-42824) in Microsoft 365 Copilot, Pickle in the Middle in Google Vertex AI, and vulnerabilities in LiteLLM. Ransomware gangs including Qilin, Gentlemen, and DragonForce continue dominating the threat landscape with EDR-killing tradecraft and cloud-based C2 abuse.
