Hot Take:

Ah, the world of cybersecurity – where it’s always open season for hackers, budget cuts are a game of financial limbo, and even your friendly neighborhood lingerie retailer isn’t safe from the digital boogeyman. Meanwhile, the Dutch police are playing “Guess Who?” with cybercriminals, and Cloudflare’s third-party vendor had a “whoopsie” moment. Looks like the only thing safe these days is the salad dressing in my fridge – or is it?

Key Points:

  • vBulletin’s flawed patch from 2014 opens door to remote code execution through PHP object injection.
  • Chinese hackers, likely from Salt Typhoon, target Digital Realty and Comcast for some unwanted attention.
  • Cisco and Honeywell unveil new products, because the future’s so bright, we gotta wear shades – with built-in security features.
  • The CISA budget faces a $135 million trim, but hey, at least it’s not a full-blown financial buzzcut.
  • Victoria’s Secret cyber incident costs them $10 million, proving that even their secrets aren’t safe in the cyber realm.
