On July 17, 2025, Cisco revealed a critical security flaw in its Identity Services Engine (ISE) and ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) that could enable attackers to execute arbitrary code on the operating system with elevated privileges. Labeled CVE-2025-20337, this vulnerability has a CVSS score of 10.0 and is akin to CVE-2025-20281, which was resolved by Cisco last month.
According to Cisco’s advisory, “Multiple vulnerabilities in a specific API of Cisco ISE and ISE-PIC could permit an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code as root without requiring any valid credentials.” The vulnerabilities stem from inadequate validation of user-supplied input, allowing an attacker to exploit them through specially crafted API requests. A successful exploit could result in extensive control over the affected systems.

Kimsuky Hackers Linked to Credential Theft Using Russian Email Addresses
December 3, 2024
Threat Intelligence / Email Security
The North Korea-aligned threat group Kimsuky has been implicated in a series of phishing attacks utilizing email addresses that appear to originate from Russia, aimed at stealing user credentials. According to South Korean cybersecurity firm Genians, these phishing emails were predominantly sent from services in Japan and Korea until early September. However, starting in mid-September, a shift was noted with some emails crafted to look as if they were sent from Russia. This involves the exploitation of VK’s Mail.ru email service, which includes multiple alias domains such as mail.ru, internet.ru, bk.ru, inbox.ru, and list.ru. Genians has reported that Kimsuky has used these domains in phishing campaigns that impersonate financial institutions and popular internet sites like Naver. Additionally, some attacks have involved spoofing Naver’s MYBOX cloud storage service to deceive users into providing sensitive information.

Cryptocurrency / Security Threats
Recent findings by cybersecurity experts reveal a new campaign that targets a known vulnerability in the Apache HTTP Server to deploy a cryptocurrency miner named Linuxsys. This vulnerability, identified as CVE-2021-41773, carries a high severity rating (CVSS score: 7.5) and involves a path traversal issue in Apache HTTP Server version 2.4.49, which allows for remote code execution. According to Jacob Baines from VulnCheck, “Attackers exploit compromised legitimate websites to disseminate malware, facilitating hidden delivery and evasion of detection.” The infection process, traced back to an Indonesian IP address (103.193.177[.]152), aims to transfer a subsequent payload from “repositorylinux[.]org” using tools like curl or wget. This payload, a shell script, is tasked with downloading the Linuxsys cryptocurrency miner from five separate legitimate sites, indicating that the threat actors…
