If your scan engine already holds credentials for a host, it can ask that host which ports are open instead of probing for them.Every scan begins with the same question: which ports on this host are open? Everything after it, from identifying services to checking for vulnerabilities to evaluating policy, depends on the answer being right. The traditional answer comes from the outside: the scan engine sends traffic to a range of ports and infers each port's state from how the host responds. That…
"Workflow identity hijacking" can bypass standard security controls and hijack an organization's data by sending a basic request through an unauthenticated entry point.
The critical, unauthenticated bugs allow attackers to bypass authentication and proxy a user’s browser traffic. The post Fortinet Patches Critical Vulnerabilities in FortiMonitorOnSight, Chrome Extension appeared first on SecurityWeek.
Cybercriminals are hijacking artificial intelligence (AI) user accounts via information stealer logs to create "stolen keys" that grant illicit access to tools from model providers like Google, Anthropic, and others. Information stealers like Lumma Stealer or Vidar are equipped to harvest a wide range of data from compromised systems. This can include credential, session tokens, and API

A major vulnerability is disclosed. The alert lands immediately. Then comes the harder question: Are we actually exposed? For many security teams, answering that means jumping between vulnerability scanners, endpoint tools, cloud inventories, SBOMs, repositories, and application data to build enough context to act. As AI accelerates vulnerability discovery and research, that delay matters more
A flaw in DeepSeek Harness, DeepSeek's open-source tool for running AI coding agents on a developer's machine, let a sandboxed agent turn off its own sandbox with a single command. The tool runs an agent's commands inside an operating-system sandbox, so that an agent working on untrusted files cannot write outside its workspace. The agent could remove that limit by calling the tool's own web
