Attackers exploit patched macOS Screen Sharing flaw to deploy cryptominer

Attackers actively exploit patched macOS Screen Sharing bug CVE-2026-65400 on systems with port 5900 exposed, gaining root to install a Monero cryptominer.

The Netherlands' National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) reports active exploitation of CVE-2026-65400, an authentication flaw in macOS Screen Sharing that lets attackers authenticate without valid login credentials. Apple patched the issue in macOS Sequoia 15.7.9, Sonoma 14.8.9 and Tahoe 26.6.1, and the NCSC escalated its advisory on August 12 after proof-of-concept code went public and reports arrived of attacks on internet-exposed systems. In every reported case attackers obtained root access and installed a Monero crypto miner; users who cannot patch immediately are advised to disable Screen Sharing.

Zoom Annotation Flaws Could Let a Meeting Participant Hijack Another Attendee's Client

A Security researchers disclosed three Zoom annotation flaws enabling zero-click client hijacking; Zoom shipped fixes in June and July with no exploitation reported.

Researchers at A Security found three flaws in Zoom's annotation feature: CVE-2026-53413 (CVSS 8.3, buffer over-write), CVE-2026-53414 (CVSS 6.5, buffer over-read), and CVE-2026-53415 (CVSS 8.3, use-after-free). A crafted drawing object sent over the wrong message channel can overwrite adjacent memory and hijack another attendee's client with no user interaction. Fixes shipped in Zoom Workplace 7.1.5/7.0.6, VDI Client 7.0.11/6.6.16, and Zoom Rooms/Meeting SDK 7.1.0+ during June and July. No exploitation has been reported and the flaws are absent from CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.

Impersonating IT support: how threat actors turn a remote session into enterprise-wide access

Microsoft details Teams IT-support impersonation campaigns deploying Node.js implants, AD reconnaissance, and WinRM lateral movement toward domain controllers.

Microsoft Threat Intelligence describes a human-operated campaign where attackers impersonate IT/helpdesk staff via Microsoft Teams external collaboration, talk users into granting remote sessions, and use RMM tools for interactive access. During the session they run PowerShell to silently install a malicious MSI that stages a portable Node.js runtime and obfuscated JavaScript implant for C2, executing follow-on payloads via rundll32. Operators then perform host and Active Directory reconnaissance, capture desktop screenshots, and pivot via WinRM on port 5985 to domain controllers and certificate authorities. The hands-on-keyboard chain, which can precede data theft and ransomware, blends into normal operations by relying on Teams, Quick Assist, msiexec, and Node.js; Microsoft shares hunting and mitigation guidance.

Hackers Impersonate IT Support on Microsoft Teams to Take Control of Employee PCs

Microsoft warns of a human-operated campaign where attackers pose as IT support in Teams to gain remote PC control and reach domain controllers.

Microsoft Threat Intelligence observed attackers abusing Microsoft Teams external collaboration to impersonate IT/helpdesk staff, persuading employees to grant screen control via Quick Assist or RMM tools. Operators deploy malicious MSI packages via silent msiexec, run encrypted JavaScript implants through portable Node.js, and persist via EdgeUpdate Run keys or Startup folder entries. The Node.js backdoor uses HTTPS long-polling C2, captures screenshots, enumerates Active Directory, and moves laterally over WinRM (TCP 5985) to domain controllers and certificate authorities. Initial access maps to MITRE ATT&CK T1566.003 (Spearphishing via Service); no Teams vulnerability is exploited.
