Recommendation: Gmail users - reset your passwords!<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the wake of a data breach involving one of Google\u2019s third-party Salesforce systems, which we reported a few weeks ago, it’s advised for Gmail users to reset their password and ensure they have multi-factor authentication enabled.<\/p>

The incident, which occurred in June 2025, has escalated concerns over sophisticated phishing campaigns targeting a massive user base.<\/p>

According to Google\u2019s analysis, the threat actor accessed and retrieved a limited set of data containing basic, largely public business information like company names and contact details.<\/p>

Attackers are leveraging the news of the breach to craft scams that appear legitimate, tricking users into revealing their login credentials or two-factor authentication (2FA) codes.\u00a0<\/p>

Given the heightened risk of follow-on attacks, Google is urging all Gmail users to remain vigilant and take proactive security measures. We recommends updating passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and being wary of unsolicited emails or calls requesting personal information.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Bridgestone Confirms Cyberattack Impacts Manufacturing Facilities<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Tyre manufacturing giant Bridgestone Americas has confirmed it is responding to a cyberattack\u00a0that disrupted operations at some of its manufacturing facilities this week.<\/p>

In a statement, the company asserted that the incident has been contained and that business is now operating normally, though a full investigation into the breach is ongoing.<\/p>

Bridgestone acknowledged that it identified a \u201climited cyber incident\u201d that impacted its production capabilities. \u201cWe have launched a comprehensive forensic analysis and believe we contained the incident early,\u201d the company stated.<\/p>

While Bridgestone\u2019s official statements characterise the incident as \u201climited,\u201d reports from local officials suggest a potentially more widespread event. Pierre-Luc Bellerose, Mayor of Joliette, Quebec, where Bridgestone operates a large plant, told local media that he believes the attack affected all of the company\u2019s factories in North America.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Two Exploited Vulnerabilities Patched in Android<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Google last week rolled out fixes for a total of 111 unique CVEs as part of the September 2025 set of Android patches, including exploited zero-days.<\/p>

The exploited vulnerabilities, both privilege escalation issues, impact the Android Runtime (CVE-2025-48543) and Linux kernel (CVE-2025-38352).<\/p>

\u201cThere are indications that the following may be under limited, targeted exploitation: CVE-2025-38352, CVE-2025-48543,\u201d Google\u2019s\u00a0advisory\u00a0reads.<\/p>

Users are advised to update their devices to a security patch level of 2025-09-05 as soon as it becomes available for them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

New Botnet Uses \u2018UAC Prompt Bombing\u2019 to Bypass Windows Defender Protections<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Security teams began observing a novel botnet strain slipping beneath the radar of standard Windows Defender defenses in early August 2025.<\/p>

Dubbed NightshadeC2, this malware family leverages both C and Python-based payloads to establish persistent, remote-control access on compromised hosts.<\/p>

Initial infection chains often start with customized \u201cClickFix\u201d landing pages that trick users into executing commands via the Windows Run prompt, while secondary campaigns employ trojanised installers of popular utilities such as Advanced IP Scanner, CCleaner, and various VPN clients.<\/p>

Once executed, NightshadeC2 rapidly escalates privileges, disables or excludes its components from Defender scans, and calls home to a dynamic command and control infrastructure.<\/p>

Should Defender service checks fail or the user decline elevation, the loader repeats its prompts ad nauseam\u2014a technique the researchers have termed \u201cUAC Prompt Bombing.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Make Connector plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to misconfigured file type validation in the ‘upload_media’ function in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.10. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site’s server which may make remote code execution possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The PopAd plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.4. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the PopAd_reset_cookie_time function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to reset cookie time settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
