This daily digest covers a mass credential harvest via FortiBleed targeting FortiGate firewalls, new backdoors like ModeloRAT and Mistic tied to ransomware brokers, and critical data-exposure flaws in platforms such as Dify AI. It also highlights supply-chain risks in open-source CI/CD workflows, Anthropic’s Mythos model uncovering classified-system weaknesses, and industry moves on AI-driven SecOps and network-layer virtual patching.
- FortiBleed brute-forced 430,000+ FortiGate firewalls since February, harvesting over 110 million credentials across 24 protocols for resale
- Four critical Dify AI flaws (CVE-2026-41947 to -41950) let any console user read other tenants' chats, files, and internal APIs; patched in 1.14.2
- ModeloRAT and diskless Mistic backdoors tied to the Woodgnat access broker use signed pythonw.exe and DLL sideloading to evade detection
- Cordyceps research found 300 CI/CD exploit chains across 30,000 GitHub Actions workflows letting free-tier accounts steal tokens and taint builds at Microsoft, Google, Apache, and Cloudflare
Since February 2026, a Russian-speaking broker has run a mass credential-harvesting campaign against over 430,000 FortiGate firewalls using a Golang sniffer called FortigateSniffer and brute-force tools. Harvested cleartext passwords and hashes feed an automated pipeline for cracking, lateral movement and data exfiltration across SMBs, with operations geofenced and time-restricted to avoid detection.
- FortiBleed compromised 430,000+ FortiGate firewalls since February 2026 using a Golang sniffer (FortigateSniffer) that taps FortiOS's diagnose sniffer command to capture credentials across 24 protocols.
- Over just 15 days (May 31-June 15), 659 parallel pipelines harvested 14.8 million RADIUS credentials, 924,000 NTLM hashes, 130,000 Kerberos hashes, and 89 million MySQL tokens.
- No zero-days involved—Fortinet confirms weak passwords and missing MFA are the actual root cause, not a software vulnerability.
- The campaign extends beyond Fortinet to Synology, Sophos, Citrix, RDWeb and MS-SQL targets, prioritizing SMBs under 200 employees and IT service providers, with possible use of AI tools (CyberStrike/CyberStrikeAI) to automate scanning.
This issue covers fresh attacks on AI agent infrastructure—over 7,000 Langflow servers hit via chained bugs in LangGraph and LangChain—and a new agentjacking risk where exposed Sentry keys let attackers hijack Claude-based workflows. It also details Apple’s Beats Studio Buds wiretap patch, Gizmodo’s ClickFix malware incident, and ongoing FortiBleed fallout, plus guidance on client-side bot detection, post-quantum crypto, and microVM limits.
- 7,000+ Langflow servers are being actively compromised by chaining three known bugs across LangGraph, Langflow, and LangChain-core, giving attackers code execution and API key theft.
- A new "agentjacking" technique abuses exposed Sentry DSNs to inject fake error events that trick AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) into running malicious commands and leaking AWS/GitHub credentials, bypassing traditional security controls entirely.
- Apple's Beats Studio Buds firmware fix (CVE-2025-20701) patches an Airoha Bluetooth chip flaw that let nearby attackers eavesdrop through unpaired earbuds and crack pairing keys.
- Roughly 1,000 organizations have been confirmed breached via FortiBleed, with attackers exporting configs, cracking password hashes via rented GPUs, and planting persistent backdoors (new admin accounts, SSH/RDP rules, IPsec tunnels).
This daily roundup covers Fortinet’s FortiBleed campaign exposing 86,000 device credentials, a Texas hunting-license vendor breach affecting 3 million records, and an unpatchable BootROM exploit on Apple A12/A13 chips. It also highlights GitHub’s context-aware secret scanning, the Novo Nordisk code leak via a stolen GitHub token, and other emerging tools and vulnerabilities.
- FortiBleed exposed 86,000+ valid Fortinet credentials across 194 countries via 1.16 billion login attempts against 320,000 FortiGate devices, with hashes cracked on a 45-GPU cluster.
- A Texas hunting/fishing license vendor breach leaked driver's license and passport numbers for 3.09 million people, already being sold by a threat actor linked to a prior Virginia wildlife breach.
- The unpatchable "usbliter8" BootROM exploit affects Apple A12/A13 chips (iPhone XS to iPhone 11), installing a restart-persistent handler that downgrades security and boots unsigned code.
- GitHub's new context-aware LLM secret scanning cuts false positives by over 75% by isolating code paths where secrets feed into API calls, auth headers, or database clients.
- FulcrumSec stole a GitHub PAT to exfiltrate 1.3 TB from Novo Nordisk, including the Ozempic formula and clinical-trial data for 11,500 patients, leaking 264 GB after a refused $25 million ransom.
CISA warns that a Russian-speaking threat actor has harvested 86,644 valid logins from internet-facing FortiGate firewalls and VPNs using SSL VPN interception, GPU-powered hash cracking, and brute-force attacks. Major government entities and critical infrastructure providers are affected. CISA advises resetting credentials, enforcing PBKDF2 for admin logins, enabling phishing-resistant MFA, and tightening management access.
- 86,644 valid FortiGate credentials—about half of all internet-exposed Fortinet devices—were harvested via SSL VPN interception and GPU-cracked passwords, hitting government and critical infrastructure targets across 194 countries.
- Attackers ran 1.16 billion credential checks against 320,000 FortiGate devices and 2.1 billion brute-force attempts on 160,000+ Microsoft SQL servers, fully compromising at least four organizations.
- Huntress found 845 of its partner organizations directly affected by matching leaked IPs against its own data.
- CISA is urging immediate credential resets, session termination, a switch to PBKDF2 for admin password storage, phishing-resistant MFA, and locking down management interfaces to known IPs.
