Cisco Talos links SD-WAN key-stealing malware to infrastructure used by China's Volt Typhoon

Cisco Talos reported on October 28, 2026, that a hacking group it tracks as UAT-11473 exploited CVE-2026-20127, a critical flaw in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN controllers, to install KeyDrift, malware built to steal encryption key material. Talos assessed with high confidence that the group's infrastructure overlaps considerably with Silent Train, a covert network that Lumen's Black Lotus Labs says China's Volt Typhoon used in at least four confirmed zero-day campaigns. Cisco released fixes for the flaw in February 2026.

CISA gives agencies three days to fix Linux flaw chained with PHP2Shell to hack firewalls

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added Fragnesia, a Linux kernel flaw tracked as CVE-2026-46300, to its catalog of exploited vulnerabilities on October 28, 2026, and gave federal civilian agencies until October 31 to fix it. CISA said attackers can chain the flaw with the PHP2Shell flaws in PHP to plant web shells and run commands as root. Security firm Dream reported that a suspected China-linked attacker used that chain to take over 25 servers, three of them in a U.S. government-affiliated environment.

CISA says attackers are exploiting HTTP2Shell, a critical Brotli flaw in Node.js and other software

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added CVE-2026-111497, a flaw in Google's Brotli compression library known as HTTP2Shell, to its catalog of exploited vulnerabilities on October 27, 2026. Crafted compressed data can crash affected software, expose its memory, or in some cases let an attacker run code. The flaw affects Node.js, Python packages, .NET, and other software built on Brotli. U.S. federal civilian agencies must fix it by November 10.

Cl0p claims data theft from Shell, Philips, and GE through PTC Windchill flaw

The Cl0p extortion group exploited CVE-2026-12569, a critical flaw in PTC's Windchill and FlexPLM software, and in August 2026 named Shell, Philips, General Electric, Fiserv, and dozens of other companies on its leak site as data theft victims. None of the named companies has confirmed a significant breach. The data Cl0p claims to hold is engineering material such as drawings and blueprints rather than personal records.

Claude, Codex, and Hermes installed unclaimed code packages listed in corporate llms.txt files

Researchers found 120 corporate websites whose llms.txt files, guides published for AI tools, told readers to install code packages that nobody had registered, Ars Technica reported on August 27, 2026. After the researchers registered some of those names, AI coding agents including Claude, OpenAI Codex, and Nous Research Hermes installed them inside corporate networks, the first at a Fortune 500 company within an hour. One such package, linked from clerk.com, already contained malware.
