The Wolf Who Played Himself a Lullaby: $10M Streaming Fraud and the AI Bots That Sang It

Okay. I've been awake since yesterday. My coffee is cold. I have 47 open tickets. And I just read that a musician in North Carolina used AI bots to steal ten million dollars from streaming platforms and I genuinely cannot decide if I'm disgusted or impressed.

The Tool That Checks For Fleas Has Fleas: Trivy Gets Ticked Twice In One Month

Oh good. The thing you use to check for parasites is now the parasite. I love this industry. I truly do. For those of you who missed the first incident because you were busy ignoring my previous alerts, here is the short version. Trivy, the open-source vulnerability scanner maintained by

Carderbee Stings Hong Kong: The Wolves Hid In The Grain Delivery Truck

Oh good. Another Tuesday. So apparently there's a fresh pack of wolves calling themselves "Carderbee" and they've figured out something the security community has been screaming about for years: if you can't trick the lambs directly, just poison the thing they trust.

Five Rusty Ticks Hitched a Ride Through the Dev Barn and Nobody Noticed Until It Was Too Late

Oh good. More of this. I just got paged at 2am because five malicious Rust crates and some smug little AI bot decided to waltz straight through CI/CD pipelines and GitHub Actions like they owned the place. Which, functionally, they did. Because nobody was watching. Because nobody is ever

Wolves in the Server Room: Someone Left the Gate Open (Again) in Asia

Oh good. A new threat cluster. Just what I needed at 3am when I'm already elbow-deep in a ticket about a printer that "smells funny." Researchers have identified a fresh pack of wolves specifically targeting critical infrastructure across Asia. Aviation. Energy. Government. You know, the sectors

CVSS 9.8: The Fence Has Been Open Since 2017 and You're Just Now Telling Me

Oh good. CISA added two more ancient vulnerabilities to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Two. More. Ancient ones. CVE-2017-7921. That's a Hikvision flaw. From 2017. As in, the year a significant portion of our current flock was still figuring out how to use a smartphone. The wolves have

129 Holes In The Fence And The Flock Is Already Outside

Oh good. My coffee is cold, my eyes are bleeding, and Google just dropped a March patch batch with a hundred and twenty-nine vulnerabilities in it. One hundred. And twenty-nine. I counted. Twice. Because apparently that's my life now. The headliner is CVE-2026-21385, a Qualcomm flaw baked right

SolarWinds Left Four Holes In The Fence And Called It A Product

Oh good. Oh fantastic. SolarWinds is back in the news and I haven't even finished my third coffee yet. For those of you who blocked this vendor from your memory after the 2020 supply chain catastrophe, congratulations on your optimism. It did not pay off. Serv-U 15.5

PromptSpy: The Flea That Learned To Think, And Now I Need A Drink

Oh good. The parasites are using AI now. Fantastic. I'm so glad I stayed awake for this one. PromptSpy is a fresh piece of Android nastiness that decided, apparently, that just being a tick wasn't ambitious enough. No, this particular flea is actively feeding prompts into

The Wolves Found The Gate We Left Unlocked. Again. Fantastic.

Oh good. Another Tuesday. CVE-2026-1731 in BeyondTrust Remote Support and Privileged Remote Access is being actively exploited in the wild, and I am SO shocked that a tool literally called "Privileged Remote Access" turned out to be a juicy target. Truly did not see that coming. I was

The Flock Handed The Wolf The Keys To The AI Barn. Shocking. Truly.

I have been awake for thirty hours. I have consumed four cups of cold coffee. I have closed seventeen tickets that all said "my computer is slow" and were caused by the same Lamb watching YouTube at 4K on a corporate machine. And now this. Some fleas have

The Flock Handed Over 4,000 Passwords Via A Fake Grain Trough Bolted Directly To Their Email App

Oh good. A new one. Just what I needed at 3am while I'm still triaging last Tuesday's ticket queue. So here's the situation. Some coyote figured out that Outlook lets you install add-ins. Little plugins. Helpful tools, theoretically. And apparently nobody in the entire

Iranian Wolves Took A Nap, Woke Up Cranky, And Now They're At The Fence Again

Oh good. They're back. I was really enjoying that brief window where the Infy wolves were offline because their entire country's internet went dark. I had almost started to feel something. Hope, maybe. Or that might have been the coffee finally working. Anyway, that's

APT28 Shoved A Tick Through Your Unsheared Office Suite And Nobody Is Surprised

Look. I'm tired. I've been staring at alerts since before the sun came up and I have consumed enough coffee to tranquilize a full-grown ram. So let me just tell you what happened, and you can sit with the shame of it. APT28, which is a

Your Antivirus Caught a Disease: The eScan Update Debacle Nobody Asked For

Oh good. Another Tuesday. So here we are. The wolves figured out that if you poison the water trough, every single lamb in the pasture drinks from it eventually. Brilliant. Diabolical. Completely predictable. And yet somehow nobody saw it coming, including the company whose entire job is to see things

RedKitten Is Prowling The Pasture And Your Lambs Are Handing Out Free Grain

Silver Fox Drops Fake Grain Into The Search Results And The Flock Just... Ate It

Oh good. Another Tuesday. So apparently a coyote crew called Silver Fox decided the easiest way to spread their ValleyRAT parasites was to dress up a fake Microsoft Teams installer like a nice pile of grain and just... leave it at the top of the search results. SEO poisoning. They

Telnet Is Still Running On Your Servers And I Want To Retire

Oh good. Another Tuesday. Another 9.8. Another reason I can't finish my coffee before the alerts start screaming. CVE-2026-24061 is a critical authentication bypass in GNU InetUtils telnetd, versions 1.9.3 through 2.7. A wolf doesn't even need credentials. They just knock on

CISA Added Four More Holes In The Fence And Somehow This Is Still Surprising To Everyone

CISA just updated the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog with four freshly confirmed holes in the fence, all of them actively being chewed through by wolves right now, and the official deadline to apply ointment is February 12th, 2026. Which is weeks away. Which means

Five Fake Chrome Extensions Walk Into a Browser. The Flock Installs All Five.

A Wolf Installed Itself In The Browser And The Lambs Said "Five Stars, Very Helpful"

Oh good. Another Tuesday. A fake Chrome extension, dressed up as a legitimate MEXC trading tool, has been quietly hoovering up API keys from anyone gullible enough to install it. The ticks embedded themselves right in the browser, waited for the Flock to log in and start trading, then shipped
