    Scattered Spider squashed, Rogue Agent AI flaw, 16 year-old Linux bug and new phish hunts marketers

    Cybersecurity Today host David Shipley covers how a newly unsealed U.S. complaint tied an alleged Scattered Spider member to a luxury retailer intrusion using a persistent Windows device ID, with prosecutors alleging help-desk social engineering, admin account takeover, data exfiltration, and an $8 million ransom demand; the episode also notes additional Scattered Spider-related guilty pleas in the U.K. and U.S.   The show reports Google patched "Rogue Agent," a Dialogflow CX permission-boundary issue involving Python code blocks in Cloud Run that could enable data theft or credential prompts across agents in a shared project.   It details "Janus Escape" (CVE-2026-53359), a 16-year-old Linux KVM use-after-free enabling guest-to-host escapes in cloud environments, patched in June.   The show explores Apple's shift to out-of-band security updates due to AI-accelerated exploitation, and a multi-platform redirect phishing campaign using fake job interviews and browser-in-browser Google login prompts targeting marketers' Google accounts. 00:00 Sponsor NordLayer 00:36 Headlines Intro 01:03 Scattered Spider Traced 03:16 More Spider Arrests 04:31 Google Rogue Agent 06:24 Linux Janus Escape 08:04 Apple Patching Shift 10:04 Marketer Phish Chain 12:17 Wrap Up Thanks 12:53 Sponsor Message

    Teams battles bots, Bioshocking AI browser guardrails, Fortibleed fuels ransomware

    Teams cracks down on meeting bots, AI guardrails get bypassed, FortiBleed fuels ransomware, and Nissan confirms PeopleSoft breach   Microsoft rolls out a new Teams admin policy, "Manage External Bots and Their Access to Meetings," to detect third‑party bots, hold them in the lobby with labels, and require organizer approval, with future allow lists, full blocks, reports, and audit logs planned.   Anthropic's Fable 5 returns globally after U.S. export controls are lifted, though higher‑risk requests may be routed to weaker models and Mythos restrictions remain, with Commerce reserving the right to reimpose controls.   Researchers describe "Bioshocking," tricking AI browsers into abandoning guardrails via delusional puzzle prompts, while Adversa AI's "Guardfall" shows how Bash text rewriting can bypass command filters in many coding agents.   SOC Radar links FortiBleed credential theft to InkRansom and Lynx ransomware activity across hundreds of FortiGate portals. Nissan confirms employee data theft tied to a PeopleSoft zero‑day campaign linked to ShinyHunters.   00:00 Today's Cyber Headlines 00:27 Teams Blocks Meeting Bots 01:58 Anthropic Fable Returns 03:22 Bioshocking Browser Attack 05:09 Guardfall Shell Bypass 06:51 FortiBleed Fuels Ransomware 07:59 Nissan PeopleSoft Breach 10:10 Wrap Up And Sign Off

    US puts $10m bounty on Russian hackers, new phish hunts hotels, Supreme Court reins in geofencing

    US Puts $10M Bounty on Russian Hackers, Supreme Court Limits Geofence Warrants, New phishing campaign targets hotels, AI Coding Agents Tricked into Malware and Canada's Electronic Spies Go After Ransomware Gangs.  The episode covers the US State Department's up to $10 million reward for information on Russia-linked hacker groups UNC 5792 and UNC 4221 tied to phishing campaigns that compromise Signal and WhatsApp accounts by stealing Signal backup recovery keys.  It also explains a US Supreme Court 6–3 ruling limiting geofence warrants by recognizing Fourth Amendment privacy protections for phone location data and requiring probable cause and narrower requests.  Mozilla ODIN researchers demonstrate a proof of concept where a clean GitHub repo can cause AI coding agents to run an init command that executes attacker-controlled code via DNS and opens a reverse shell. A hotel-focused phishing campaign using Calendly and Google redirects delivers ZIP files that install the Tonrat implant through PowerShell and a user-space Node.js runtime.  Finally, Canada's CSE says it disrupted infrastructure used by 10 major ransomware groups and reports incident volumes rising nearly 26% year over year. 00:24 Top Headlines Rundown 00:54 10 Million Bounty Russian Hackers 02:42 Supreme Court Limits Geofence Warrants 03:56 AI Coding Agent Repo Trap 05:31 Listener Thanks And Reviews 05:51 Hotel Front Desk Phishing Attack 08:01 Canada Disrupts Ransomware Gangs 09:45 Closing And Sign Off

    US Restricts Frontier AI models

    US Loosens Anthropic Claude Mythos Access, Unpatchable iPhone Exploit Emerges, and CISO Burnout Drives Fractional Shift Washington granted a partial reprieve allowing Anthropic's Claude Mythos to be released to more than 100 approved U.S. firms and institutions after export controls paused Mythos and the more restricted Fable 5, with access still limited to vetted American entities; the same day, OpenAI's GPT 5.6 was also restricted to government-approved partners under a Trump executive order requiring review of cyber-capable models.  The episode also covers Canadian hacktivist Aubrey Cottle's 18-month sentence for the 2021 Texas GOP hack and bail breaches, with possible U.S. charges pending. Researchers disclosed "USBliterate," an unpatchable physical USB exploit in the Secure ROM of older A12/A13 iPhones that aids forensic extraction. Finally, a survey finds rising CISO burnout, fewer full-time CISOs, growth in fractional CISO roles, and AI—especially shadow AI—overtaking liability as the top stressor. 00:55 AI Export Controls Shift 03:37 Anonymous Hacker Sentenced 05:32 Unpatchable iPhone Boot Exploit 07:30 CISO Burnout And Exodus 09:40 Wrap Up And Sign Off

    Why Car Dealerships Are Prime Cyber Targets: Fraud, Resilience, and Security Leadership with Jennifer Hutton

    Cybersecurity Today would like to than Material Security for their support of this podcast.  On Cybersecurity Today on the Weekend, the host speaks with Jennifer Hutton, a cybersecurity leader in the car dealership sector, about how she entered cybersecurity through increasing cyber insurance requirements and why dealerships are prime targets because they hold bank-level sensitive data and run complex digital and IoT ecosystems. They discuss the rise of cyber-enabled fraud, including impersonation scams, smishing, and synthetic identity fraud, and the need to educate both employees and customers. Hutton describes gaps in industry resources, especially for smaller dealers, and contrasts regulatory pressures such as updated FTC safeguards rules in the U.S. She emphasizes servant leadership, empathy, and communicating risk in business terms, arguing that cyber risk is business risk. The conversation also covers supply chain disruption from the CDK ransomware incident and the importance of incident response, business continuity, and resiliency-focused planning. 00:00 Weekend Show Kickoff 01:14 Jennifer's Cyber Origin 02:53 Why Dealerships Are Targets 04:30 Scams And Synthetic IDs 08:32 Industry Gaps And Sharing 10:42 Regulation And Tech Shift 13:48 Leading With Business Risk 21:29 Servant Leadership And AI 25:21 Empathy In Tech Teams 28:16 CDK Ransomware Lessons 29:53 Resilience Over Prevention 32:08 Advice To Dealership Leaders 34:49 Closing Thanks

    Malware gaslights AI

    Mac Malware Gaslights AI, Major Info-Stealer Takedown, OpenAI's Patch the Planet, and FortiBleed Fallout Mac malware called "Gaslight," attributed to North Korea-aligned actors, plants fake system messages designed to derail AI-based analysis while stealing data and exfiltrating it via a Telegram bot.   Microsoft and Europol disrupted the Amadey and SteelC info-stealer ecosystem by seizing/shuttering infrastructure after identifying 140,000 infections in early May and over 200 command-and-control domains and IPs, as part of Operation Endgame.   OpenAI announced "Patch the Planet," a joint effort with Trail of Bits and HackerOne to help open-source projects find and fix bugs amid AI-generated report flooding, alongside a new GPT 5.5 Cyber benchmark result.    New FortiBleed reporting underscores that the campaign relies on credential reuse against exposed FortiGate devices and may require rotating far more than just firewall passwords.   00:00 Sponsor Message 00:25 Headlines Overview 00:55 Mac Malware Gaslight 02:00 Telegram C2 And Stealer 02:50 Info Stealer Takedown 04:08 Operation Endgame Impact 04:47 OpenAI Patch The Planet 06:16 AI Models And Export Rules 07:08 FortiBleed Recap 08:13 Inside The FortiGate 08:59 Rotate Credentials Now 09:26 Closing And Sign Off
