Wiz Identifies Critical Access Bypass Vulnerability in AI-Driven Base44 Coding Platform

July 29, 2025
LLM Security / Vulnerability

Cybersecurity researchers have revealed a recently patched critical security vulnerability in the popular AI-driven coding platform Base44. This flaw could enable unauthorized access to private applications created by its users. According to a report from cloud security firm Wiz, the vulnerability was alarmingly easy to exploit; an attacker merely needed to provide a non-secret ‘app_id’ at undocumented registration and email verification endpoints to create a verified account for private applications. This breach effectively bypassed all authentication mechanisms, including Single Sign-On (SSO) protections, granting full access to sensitive applications and data. Following responsible disclosure on July 9, 2025, Wix, the company that owns Base44, implemented an official fix within 24 hours. Fortunately, there is no evidence that this vulnerability was ever maliciously exploited in practice.

Cyber Attack / Malware

Fraudulent websites posing as Google Chrome have been employed to spread malicious installers for a remote access trojan known as ValleyRAT. First identified in 2023, this malware is linked to a threat actor referred to as Silver Fox, whose previous operations primarily targeted Chinese-speaking regions, including Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Mainland China. According to Morphisec researcher Shmuel Uzan, “This actor has increasingly focused on key organizational roles—especially in finance, accounting, and sales—underscoring a strategic emphasis on high-value positions with access to sensitive data and systems.” Early cyber attack sequences have shown ValleyRAT being delivered alongside other malware types, such as Purple Fox and Gh0st RAT, the latter having been widely utilized by various Chinese hacking groups. Just last month, counterfeit installers for legitimate software were identified as a distribution method for these attacks.

Vulnerability / Threat Intelligence

Threat actors have been found exploiting a critical SAP NetWeaver vulnerability, now patched, to introduce the Auto-Color backdoor in an April 2025 attack on a U.S.-based chemicals firm. According to a report from Darktrace shared with The Hacker News, the attacker accessed the company’s network over three days, attempted to download suspicious files, and communicated with infrastructure associated with the Auto-Color malware. The vulnerability, identified as CVE-2025-31324, is a severe unauthenticated file upload flaw in SAP NetWeaver that allows remote code execution (RCE) and was fixed by SAP in April. Auto-Color, first reported by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 in February, operates similarly to a remote access trojan, providing remote access to compromised Linux systems. It has been linked to attacks against universities and government entities in North America and Asia between November and December 2024.

Hackers Exploit SAP Vulnerability to Target U.S. Chemical Company with Auto-Color Malware On July 30, 2025, cybersecurity experts reported a significant breach involving a critical vulnerability in SAP NetWeaver, previously patched by SAP. In an incident that unfolded over three…

Cybercriminals Leverage ClickFix Technique to Distribute NetSupport RAT in Recent Attacks

Malware / Cyber Attack

In a disturbing trend since early January 2025, cybercriminals have been utilizing the ClickFix method to distribute a remote access trojan known as NetSupport RAT. This malware, often spread through deceptive websites and fraudulent browser updates, provides attackers with full control of the victim’s device. This access allows them to monitor the screen in real time, manipulate the keyboard and mouse, upload and download files, and execute harmful commands.

Originally developed as a legitimate tool for IT support under the name NetSupport Manager, the software has been weaponized by malicious actors to target organizations and harvest sensitive information, including screenshots, audio, video, and files. According to eSentire, “ClickFix involves injecting a fake CAPTCHA webpage onto compromised sites, tricking users into executing malicious PowerShell commands that download and activate malware payloads.”
