Hot Take:

Just when you thought your email was safe, in comes Winter Vivern, the cyber equivalent of a cold, sneaky breeze, exploiting vulnerabilities in the Roundcube webmail client. It's like a really bad version of "Mission Impossible," where the villains are a scrappy cyber spy group, the mission is to mess with European governments, and the plot twist? A zero-day vulnerability that was minding its own business. And just like in the movies, the bad guys are linked to Russia and Belarus. Shocking, right?
