Risky Bulletin: Expired cards can be used for new transactions
Researchers show expired Visa contactless cards can be revived via NFC man-in-the-middle relay to run fraudulent transactions; roundup also covers major breaches.
University of Massachusetts Amherst researchers built an NFC man-in-the-middle rig that updates a card's expiration date in transit and relays the modified payment to POS terminals, reviving expired contactless cards; Visa terminals and the backends of all five banks studied failed to catch the manipulation. The same roundup reports Iranian hackers shut down a small UK power plant for four days, Lazarus breached South Korea's Presidential Office as part of a campaign exceeding 100 victims, and French telecom SFR suffered a breach affecting over 2.1 million customers.

NovaCookies Campaigns Abuse Genuine Docusign Notifications to Steal Microsoft 365 Sessions
NovaCookies AitM phishing kit, a Sneaky 2FA variant, uses genuine Docusign lures to steal Microsoft 365 sessions at hundreds of organizations.
Island disclosed NovaCookies, a $320/month adversary-in-the-middle phishing-as-a-service platform that relays Microsoft 365 sign-ins through attacker infrastructure to capture credentials, MFA codes, and authenticated sessions. Campaigns abuse genuine Docusign envelopes and Microsoft/Google redirect hops so each step looks legitimate, with lure domains on .vu and alternating-case labels such as PwPt-sHaRe. Proofpoint assesses NovaCookies as a Sneaky 2FA variant with added flows for Okta and Entra domains federated to GoDaddy, and a fully managed PhaaS model. It has targeted hundreds of organizations in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Germany, Israel, and the U.A.E., and is advertised via Telegram with anti-analysis checks like a Cloudflare gate.

Spain reports first data breach involving autonomous AI agent
Spain's data protection authority AEPD reported its first data breach caused by an autonomous AI agent that altered personal records and accessed invoice data.
Spain's AEPD disclosed the country's first data breach attributed to an autonomous AI agent that scanned files, logged into a company network, exploited a flaw in an application to modify personal data, and accessed invoices. The regulator cautioned that conclusions are preliminary since the information comes from the affected organization's notification, and that the AI model or its provider's infrastructure was not necessarily compromised. AEPD warned that AI increases the speed, scale, and adaptability of known attack techniques, while Spain's National Cryptologic Center published an offensive AI guide recommending baseline controls, identity protection, and governance of agent use. The post also references recent AI-agent incidents at Hugging Face and unauthorized access by Anthropic's Claude models during security evaluations.
