Old Unix Symlink Trick Lets Malicious Code Bypass User ChecksWiz researchers found that six popular AI coding assistants can be tricked into modifying sensitive files, including SSH keys, while their approval prompts display a harmless filename. The GhostApproval technique exploits a decades-old Unix symlink behavior to mislead users.
A new study of integrated development environments (IDEs) like Microsoft Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, and Cursor has revealed weaknesses in how they handle the extension verification process, ultimately enabling attackers to execute malicious code on developer machines
HP Wolf highlighted novel techniques used by attackers to bypass email protections, including embedding malicious code inside images and utilizing GenAI
A now-fixed vulnerability in the open-source vulnerability scanner Nuclei could potentially allow attackers to bypass signature verification while sneaking malicious code into templates that execute on local systems. [...]

A new vulnerability in the open-source vulnerability scanner Nuclei could potentially allow attackers to bypass signature verification while sneaking malicious code into templates that execute on local systems. [...]
A high-severity security flaw has been disclosed in ProjectDiscovery's Nuclei, a widely-used open-source vulnerability scanner that, if successfully exploited, could allow attackers to bypass signature checks and potentially execute malicious code
Security researchers have detailed a new variant of a dynamic link library (DLL) search order hijacking technique that could be used by threat actors to bypass security mechanisms and achieve execution of malicious code on systems running Microsoft Windows 10 and Windows 11
The financially motivated threat actors behind the Casbaneiro banking malware family have been observed making use of a User Account Control (UAC) bypass technique to gain full administrative privileges on a machine, a sign that the threat actor is evolving their tactics to avoid detection and execute malicious code on compromised assets
A new process injection technique dubbed Mockingjay could be exploited by threat actors to bypass security solutions to execute malicious code on compromised systems
A new process injection technique named 'Mockingjay' could allow threat actors to bypass EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) and other security products to stealthily execute malicious code on compromised systems. [...]
