Coinbase has reported a data breach involving a small fraction of its users after cybercriminals targeted its overseas customer support agents. The company revealed that these criminals offered cash incentives to a limited number of insiders, who then extracted data concerning less than 1% of Coinbase’s monthly active users. The attackers aimed to compile a list of customers to impersonate Coinbase and trick them into surrendering their cryptocurrency assets. On May 11, 2025, the perpetrators attempted to extort Coinbase for $20 million, claiming possession of sensitive information about specific customer accounts and internal documents. In response, Coinbase confirmed that the compromised agents, based in India, have been terminated. The firm assured customers that no passwords, private keys, or funds were at risk.

Cybersecurity researchers have identified a new campaign that actively exploits a recently revealed critical security flaw in Langflow to deploy the Flodrix botnet malware. According to Trend Micro researchers Aliakbar Zahravi, Ahmed Mohamed Ibrahim, Sunil Bharti, and Shubham Singh in their technical report, attackers are leveraging this vulnerability to execute downloader scripts on compromised Langflow servers, which subsequently retrieve and install the Flodrix malware. This activity involves the exploitation of CVE-2025-3248 (CVSS score: 9.8), a missing authentication vulnerability affecting Langflow, a Python-based visual framework for creating AI applications. Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code through specially crafted HTTP requests. Langflow addressed this flaw with version 1.3.0, released in March 2025. Last month, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) highlighted…
