Citrix Bleed 2 Vulnerability Allows Token Theft; SAP GUI Flaws Threaten Sensitive Data Security

June 25, 2025
Data Privacy / Vulnerability

Cybersecurity experts have unveiled two recently patched vulnerabilities in the SAP Graphical User Interface (GUI) for Windows and Java, which could allow attackers to access sensitive information if exploited. The vulnerabilities, identified as CVE-2025-0055 and CVE-2025-0056 (CVSS scores: 6.0), were addressed in SAP’s January 2025 monthly update. According to Pathlock researcher Jonathan Stross, the research revealed that the SAP GUI input history is insecurely stored in both Java and Windows versions. This input history feature is designed to help users quickly access previously entered data, storing it locally on devices. However, this can include sensitive information such as usernames, national IDs, social security numbers (SSNs), bank account numbers, and internal SAP table names. The vulnerabilities highlighted by Pathlock stem from these insecure storage methods.

Ukraine has banned the use of the Telegram messaging app by government officials, military staff, and personnel involved in defense and critical infrastructure, citing national security reasons. The announcement was made by the National Coordination Centre for Cybersecurity (NCCC) via a Facebook post. Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukraine’s GUR military intelligence agency, emphasized, “While I support freedom of speech, the issue regarding Telegram transcends that; it is fundamentally a matter of national security.” The National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) noted that Telegram is “actively exploited by adversaries” for cyber attacks, disseminating phishing messages and malware, monitoring users’ locations, and collecting intelligence to assist Russian military operations against Ukrainian targets.

FBI Warns Law Firms of Luna Moth’s Stealthy Phishing Campaign

May 27, 2025
Data Breach / Social Engineering

The FBI has issued a warning regarding a series of social engineering attacks targeting law firms, attributed to a criminal group known as Luna Moth. This campaign has been ongoing for the past two years, utilizing IT-themed social engineering calls and callback phishing emails to gain remote access to devices and steal sensitive information for extortion purposes. Also referred to as Chatty Spider, Silent Ransom Group (SRG), Storm-0252, and UNC3753, Luna Moth has been active since at least 2022, primarily employing a tactic called callback phishing, or Telephone-Oriented Attack Delivery (TOAD), to deceive users into calling phone numbers found in seemingly innocuous phishing emails related to invoices and subscription payments. Notably, Luna Moth is the same hacking group responsible for the previous BazarCall campaigns that deployed ransomware such as Conti.
