Security Vulnerabilities Price Tag%201security advisory authentication

We often view OpenSSH security updates through the lens of standard patch management. When a new CVE hits, we scramble to update, check our versions, and return to business as usual. But recent vulnerabilities tied to distribution-added OpenSSH GSSAPI patches are a reminder that the danger doesn't always lie in the core code; it often resides in the "convenience" features we layer on top. . These recent issues shouldn't just trigger an apt upgrade or dnf update; they should trigger a...

Security Trends Price Tag%201privilege escalation Linux security

Linux security teams are drowning. Patches, kernel updates, new CVEs every week. SSH exposed here, an old web service there, and a forgotten cron job running as root. On top of that, SIEM dashboards blink all day with alerts that all claim to be “high priority.” . It’s no surprise that people stop paying attention. The real problem isn’t a lack of data. It’s the opposite. Too much noise, not enough signal. Security teams see huge lists of vulnerabilities and thousands of alerts, but very...

Linux Security Update Roundup Hero Esm H350
Security Vulnerabilities Price Tag%201security advisory critical

Before you close out the week, check what still needs to be patched. . The list is not small. Ubuntu and Red Hat pushed kernel updates. OpenVPN and OpenShift both received security fixes. Several everyday Linux components were patched too, including Vim, nginx, cifs-utils, LibVNCServer, nghttp2, and Perl. That is the kind of week administrators can easily write off as routine. It should not be. These are the updates that keep small openings from turning into real access. Why This Week Looks...

GitHub has become the latest delivery mechanism for malware aimed at security researchers. . YesWeHack and Sekoia identified a campaign that hid a Python-based remote access trojan (RAT) called ChocoPoC inside repositories presented as proof-of-concept exploits for recently disclosed vulnerabilities. Someone looking for a working exploit could clone the project, execute the code, and unknowingly launch a second payload that established remote access. Nothing about the campaign specifically...

Azure CLI Attack Hero Esm H350
Cloud Security Price Tag%201incident response Linux administration

Over the span of just 14 days, threat actors unleashed more than 81 million login attempts against Microsoft’s Azure command-line interface (CLI). The campaign , which security researchers at Huntress identified as an ongoing, automated password-spraying effort, successfully compromised at least 78 Microsoft accounts across 64 organizations between June 12 and June 26, 2026. . While the scale is massive, the underlying strategy is surprisingly surgical. Attackers aren't exploiting a flaw in...

AirTraf: A Linux Wi-Fi Survey Tool for Efficient Access Point Analysis

This month I gave a Linux-based alternative a spin. AirTraf is a basic site survey tool that looks for 802.11b access points and displays traffic statistics. I downloaded AirTraf from Elixar.com and decompressed the .tar.gz file. When I ran the make command in the AirTraf directory, I got a long list of parse errors from the ethtool.h file. By editing /usr/local/include/wireless.h and commenting out the include directive for ethtool.h I was able to run make and make install successfully. I invoked AirTraf from the command line on an IBM ThinkPad T22 running Mandrake Linux 9.1, with a Xircom CWE1100 CreditCard Wireless Ethernet adapter. In order to run, AirTraf needs a window at least 120 characters wide and 45 characters high, so I had to adjust the Konsole window settings and specify a custom size.
