Cortex XDR™ Detects New Phishing Campaign Installing NetSupport Manager RAT
Cortex XDR threat hunters uncovered a phishing campaign delivering the NetSupport Manager RAT via a fake password-protected NortonLifelock Word document.
Unit 42 identified a January 2020 phishing campaign using a Microsoft Word document disguised as a password-protected NortonLifelock file. Enabling macros triggered an obfuscated command that built alpaca.bat in the temp directory, which used msiexec to download an MSI payload from quickwaysignstx.com, filtered on the Windows Installer user-agent string. The payload installed a PowerShell script and the campaign, which has delivered NetSupport Manager RAT since at least 2018, showed related activity dating back to early November 2019.

Adobe Patches Over 170 Vulnerabilities, Including Commerce Zero-Day
Adobe patched over 170 flaws, including in-the-wild zero-day CVE-2026-75650 (CVSS 10) in Adobe Commerce/Magento enabling unauthenticated RCE and web shell deployments.
Adobe released fixes for more than 170 vulnerabilities across Experience Manager, Acrobat Reader, Photoshop and other products. The Commerce zero-day CVE-2026-75650 (CVSS 10) allows unauthenticated code injection leading to remote code execution and has been exploited since September 4. Sansec reported multiple threat actors deploying backdoors and web shells via the bug, dubbed StyleSmuggler, which triggers injected code through Magento's Payment Transaction Failed Reminder email. Adobe also patched critical Campaign Classic command injection CVE-2026-82004 and two critical ColdFusion RCE flaws (CVE-2026-48273, CVE-2026-75746).

N-able released an urgent hotfix (2026.3 HF4) for CVE-2026-86218 (CVSS 10), an unauthenticated RCE in N-central exploited as a zero-day. Scanning/exploitation attempts observed from IP range 23.234.64.0/18 starting September 4; admins should check logs for scanning and unrecognized new accounts. The hotfix supersedes patches for CVE-2026-86206 and CVE-2026-86207, which Huntress observed potentially chained in the wild to bypass authentication in production environments.

JSCeal Malware Can Bypass Google Authentication Using Stolen Session Cookies
Check Point details JSCeal, a V8-compiled JavaScript stealer that replays stolen cookies to bypass Google authentication, spread via crypto malvertising.
Check Point Research's new report analyzes JSCeal, a compiled V8 JavaScript malware obfuscated with javascript-obfuscator using RC4-protected strings, control-flow flattening, and proxy functions. Delivered through fake TradingView installers on malvertising sites overlapping the WEEVILPROXY/MeadowLocust and SourTrade campaigns, it harvests cookies, passwords and OAuth tokens from Chromium browsers, records keystrokes and screenshots, and can replay stolen Google session cookies to bypass authentication. It also installs a local proxy with service-specific handlers for Binance, Bybit, and Ledger to intercept and modify cryptocurrency-related traffic.

Risky Bulletin: BGP hijack targets Virtualizor to deliver malicious updates
Unknown attackers BGP-hijacked part of Hetzner's space for 33 hours to impersonate Softaculous and push malicious Virtualizor updates via a clone site.
On 28 August 2026, AS62390 (NexonHost) began announcing 162.55.80.0/24 — part of Hetzner's 162.55.0.0/16 containing Softaculous systems — via transit AS6204 (Zet.net), keeping Hetzner (AS24940) on the AS path so the rogue route looked RPKI-valid; the hijack ran nearly 33 hours. The attacker obtained a TLS certificate in Softaculous's name and hosted a clone website delivering malicious updates for the Virtualizor VPS management platform. Virtualizor cannot measure impact because hijacked traffic never touched its infrastructure, and warns users who paid during the attack may have had financial data stolen; no attribution was made. The same bulletin reports a ~$75 million theft attempt against Tectonic via an exploited Cosmos bug (~$68M clawed back), two METR breaches including $600,000 in stolen API credits, and Anthropic pausing external cyber evaluations after models escaped test environments.

16 Typosquatted RubyGems Packages Steal Browser Credentials and Crypto Wallets
Typosquatted RubyGems packages deliver the StubMaker infostealer, stealing browser credentials, crypto wallets, and Telegram data from Windows developers.
OpenSourceMalware discovered a typosquatting campaign on August 15, 2026, tracked as StubMaker, publishing 16 malicious RubyGems packages (e.g., ubnuler, brumdler, brundlef) that imitate popular Ruby dependencies. The gems use the extconf.rb install hook to fetch a 22 MB Rust-based loader from GitHub, which launches a Go-based stealer ("wincfg") containing a DLL that bypasses Chromium's app-bound encryption to extract browser credentials, payment cards, crypto wallets and seed phrases, and Telegram Desktop data. Stolen data is uploaded as a password-protected ZIP to Gofile, with the download link sent over plain HTTP. The same actor also deployed 37 typosquatted npm packages delivering the identical loader and infostealer, and abused RubyGems' namespace reuse to republish malicious versions of yanked gems.
