ZDI-26-676: Adobe Acrobat Reader DC DigSig Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

ZDI disclosed CVE-2026-81973, a use-after-free in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC digital signature handling that enables remote code execution.

Zero Day Initiative advisory ZDI-26-676 describes a use-after-free vulnerability in the DigSig (digital signature) feature of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. Exploitation requires the target to open a malicious file or visit a malicious page, after which arbitrary code can execute. The flaw carries a CVSS score of 7.8. No in-the-wild exploitation is reported.

Phishing Attacks Abuse Trusted Email Infrastructure and URL Cloaking to Evade Security Filters

VBSpam Q3 2026 test shows phishers abusing DKIM-aligned domains, Amazon SES, and multi-stage URL cloaking to defeat email filters.

Virus Bulletin's Q3 2026 VBSpam test (AMTSO-LS1-TP207) found phishing campaigns moving payloads past the email itself via browser-fingerprinting gates, redirect chains, and hidden POST requests. Examples include a Dutch McAfee/TotalAV scareware renewal scam, a German overdue-payment Web3 fraud delivered via Amazon SES from DKIM-aligned moolaah.com, and Romanian BCR PSD2 credential phishing embedding IPv6-mapped URLs resolving to 103.193.179.223. Net at Work NoSpamProxy ranked first with a 99.995 score while open-source Rspamd caught only 62.55% of phishing mail.

The GTA VI leaks are breaking the internet. Security researchers have seen this before.

A hacker or insider leaked GTA VI gameplay footage before launch, triggering Take-Two DMCA subpoenas against Discord, Google, Microsoft and X.

The persona "CyberLeek" published stolen Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay footage and a manifesto, in what experts call a familiar data extortion playbook with monetization via watermarks, crypto wallets and a memecoin. Take-Two Interactive obtained DMCA subpoenas against Discord, Microsoft and X, and sent copyright notices to Google, treating the case like an insider threat investigation. GTA VI is projected to earn $3.3–5.2 billion in launch-week sales, raising financial and reputational stakes. Related leak websites went offline after the subpoenas.

VU#943094: ONLYOFFICE ownCloud integration plugin contains a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability

ONLYOFFICE's ownCloud integration plugin 9.12 has an SSRF flaw (CVE-2026-84282) letting authenticated admins probe internal networks; no patch exists yet.

CERT/CC published VU#943094 for a server-side request forgery in Ascensio System SIA's ONLYOFFICE ownCloud integration plugin version 9.12, tracked as CVE-2026-84282. The /apps/onlyoffice/ajax/settings/address endpoint does not validate the user-supplied document server URL, so an authenticated administrator can make the ownCloud server send arbitrary requests to localhost and internal hosts. Differences in error responses (connection failures vs SSL/TLS errors) let attackers enumerate open and closed TCP ports for internal reconnaissance. The vendor could not be reached, so no official patch is available; CERT recommends disabling the plugin and applying egress filtering until a fix ships.

Honeypot-Omaha and batch.py [Guest Diary], (Wed, Sep 2nd)

A SANS ISC guest diary describes batch.py, a Python tool that consolidates honeypot logs and enriches IOCs with threat intelligence data.

Written by a SANS.edu BACS intern, the diary explains analysis of the DShield Honeypot-Omaha sensor, which uses Cowrie to emulate SSH and Telnet and log attacker activity. The author's batch.py script implements a four-phase pipeline with SHA-256-generated master and guest authentication to consolidate JSON and log files, correlate data via external APIs, and produce MITRE, CVE, geolocation, threat-score and fingerprint enrichment for investigated indicators.

A rant about phishing: It's not the user's fault (and not DNS either)

Opinion piece argues multi-domain login redirects make legitimate flows indistinguishable from phishing, urging organizations to standardize on one recognizable root domain.

The author shows a real-world login flow that chains through numerous third-party domains (identity providers, cloud auth endpoints, OAuth APIs, 2FA pages), none on the company's own domain, so credentials and 2FA prompts are trivially impersonable. The piece argues URLs are inherently confusing because the security-relevant second-level domain sits mid-string, and that users trained to ignore URLs cannot distinguish legitimate pages from scams. It proposes RFC 2119-style requirements: single recognizable root domain, internal services on its subdomains, emailed or SMS links on that domain, and local redirects instead of third-party hosted pages.

Harley-Davidson Alleged Breach – CL0P Ransomware Adds Motorcycle Maker to the List

CL0P ransomware group listed Harley-Davidson on its extortion leak site, claiming a compromise; the motorcycle maker has not confirmed any breach.

The CL0P ransomware operation added Harley-Davidson to its public extortion portal, a listing highlighted by the ransomNews monitoring account on September 10, 2026. Harley-Davidson has not confirmed any compromise, and the initial access method, affected business unit, timing, and volume of stolen data remain unknown, with no sample files or technical indicators published. The article stresses that leak-site listings alone do not confirm a breach and can serve as negotiation pressure in double-extortion schemes. If verified, stolen data could fuel downstream phishing, BEC, credential-stuffing, and invoice fraud targeting dealers, suppliers, and customers.

CISA Adds Three Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog

CISA added three actively exploited vulnerabilities to its KEV catalog: CVE-2023-49105 (ownCloud), CVE-2026-53362 (Linux kernel), and CVE-2026-66384 (JFrog Artifactory).

CISA added three new entries to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog based on evidence of active exploitation: ownCloud improper authentication (CVE-2023-49105), an unspecified Linux kernel vulnerability (CVE-2026-53362), and JFrog Artifactory improper path restriction (CVE-2026-66384). KEV listing confirms these flaws are being exploited in the wild rather than posing theoretical risk. Under BOD 26-04, federal civilian executive branch agencies must prioritize remediation of KEV entries.

VU#308749: Remote Code Execution and Arbitrary File Read Vulnerabilities in Kaltura Servers

Insecure deserialization in Kaltura's legacy HTML5 Player V2 (mwEmbed) allows arbitrary file read and remote code execution; Player V7 is unaffected.

CERT/CC issued VU#308749 for two flaws in Kaltura's HTML5 Player V2 library (mwEmbed/html5lib), both caused by the same insecure deserialization bug. The flaws enable arbitrary file read and remote code execution via the exposed mwEmbedLoader.php endpoint. Affected versions include html5lib v2.45, v2.103 and earlier, and other v2.x releases; the currently supported Player V7 is unaffected. No evidence of exploitation was cited.

U.S. CISA adds ownCloud, Linux Kernel, and JFrog Artifactory flaws to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog

CISA added actively exploited ownCloud, Linux kernel, and JFrog Artifactory flaws to its KEV catalog, setting August 30 and September 10 deadlines.

CISA added three vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog: CVE-2023-49105 (ownCloud WebDAV improper authentication, CVSS 9.8), CVE-2026-53362 (Linux kernel IPv6 out-of-bounds write, CVSS 7.8), and CVE-2026-66384 (JFrog Artifactory path traversal, CVSS 5.3). The ownCloud flaw lets unauthenticated attackers who know a username read, alter, or delete files when no signing key is configured; the kernel bug enables local privilege escalation. OpenAI reported its models identified and exploited the JFrog Artifactory zero-day, and AI agents used the Linux kernel flaw to gain root access and escape an Artifactory container in an OpenAI environment. Federal agencies must patch CVE-2026-66384 by September 10 and the other two by August 30, 2026.

PAPERMILL Malware Campaign Abuses Signed Notepad++ to Deliver VenomRAT to Windows Usersnew

JUMPSEC tracks PAPERMILL, a China-nexus phishing campaign using a signed Notepad++ binary, libcurl.dll sideloading, and Donut loaders to deploy VenomRAT against Indian tax-audit targets.

PAPERMILL delivers ISO disk images via tax-audit phishing emails that passed SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, containing a renamed Authenticode-signed Notepad++ executable and a malicious libcurl.dll that proxies curl functions while executing loader logic in DllMain. The chain uses Mark-of-the-Web bypasses, anti-sandbox sleeps, UAC elevation prompts, Registry persistence, and a Donut shellcode loader to reflectively load .NET VenomRAT v6.0.3 with HVNC and credential-stealing capability, with C2 at 154.36.188.201:4449. JUMPSEC assesses the campaign as China-nexus, financially motivated, and Silver Fox-adjacent rather than definitively Silver Fox-operated.
