WorkOS says an AI-powered hacking agent that breached its internal sales application and accessed customer information was operated by a security researcher who claims the tool escaped its testing environment and unintentionally attacked the company. [...]

The new zlib release fixes memory errors in code used by many Linux applications.

AI researchers have found hundreds of Linux kernel vulnerabilities that let a limited account gain administrator power in tests.

An OpenSSH flaw could let attackers sign in to some Linux systems without knowing a password, even when an account was meant to use keys only.

Blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis said that hackers have obtained sensitive personal information—including names, usernames, password hashes, and live tokens—for all of its users following a breach of its network security.

The accomplishment could be a major coup for the attackers. Both Chainalysis and public sources have revealed a long list of high-profile customers, including government agencies such as the FBI, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, and the US Air Force, as well as private companies such as Microsoft, Coinbase, and Barclays. It's unclear if the data theft exposed customers to additional threats.

Last Friday, Chainalysis said it had been the target of a cybersecurity incident in October that was similar to the hacks of other platforms during the same month. The external actor used AI agent-assisted offensive techniques to gain unauthorized access to Chainalysis systems and internal tools. An email the company sent to affected customers said some “non-sensitive customer data, such as user IDs, full names, email addresses, and organization role labels for users provisioned on our platform were accessed.” It's not clear why the company considered such information "non-sensitive."

Residential proxies are often used by bad actors to hide the true source of internet traffic — and now one of them appears to have taken up residence in the White House.

The Residential Proxy Observatory, set up by Layer3 Intel to monitor the threat of anonymized network activity, has identified proxy exit activity on one particular network, AS2650, which is registered to the executive office of the US President and operated out of the White House.

Residential proxies — so-called because they typically run on home or personal devices — mask the true source of internet traffic by rerouting it to appear to come from a different IP address. While it may be concerning that this is activity to be found in one of the protected workspaces in the US, this is in line with recent research from Infoblox, which found that residential proxies were widespread throughout enterprises.

While not illegal per se, residential proxies can be used by bad actors for activities that most definitely are illicit, for example, denial-of-service operations or distribution of malware.

The Residential Proxy Observatory has also found evidence of their activity on the island of St Helena, one of the most remote locations on the planet, so there really is no place on earth to hide from internet interference.
