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...

Offensive Security just dropped Kali Linux 2026.2 , and at first glance, it looks like a standard quarterly refresh.

A process with a stable workload shouldn't keep growing its resident memory. When it does, the first question isn't how much RAM is available. It's where the allocations stopped being released. On Linux, that answer isn't always obvious because the kernel, allocator, and application all influence what memory usage looks like from the outside. . Separating normal allocation behavior from an actual leak takes more than watching top or container metrics. Heap growth, allocator caches, mapped...

Ai Powered Pentesting Linux Hero Esm H350

AI is beginning to reshape how penetration testing workflows are organized. For years, the penetration tester’s workflow has been a labor-intensive ritual: scan, enumerate, research, exploit, and report. But new frameworks are attempting to codify that intuition, turning the "human-in-the-loop" process into a machine-coordinated workflow. But is this a genuine evolution in how we secure Linux environments, or just a sophisticated wrapper around the same old tools? . Dark Moon is an open-source...

Nitrux Upgrade Tool System Enhances Immutable Linux Management

Nitrux Update Tool System (NUTS) command-line utility is now available for Nitrux users and it can also perform rollbacks. . Nitrux developer Uri Herrera has been working on a new utility that would make it a lot easier for existing users to upgrade their immutable Nitrux Linux installations to newer releases, called Nitrux Update Tool System (NUTS). Until now, upgrading your Nitrux installations to newer releases involved downloading the latest ISO image, writing on a USB flash drive, booting it on your Nitrux machine, and performing an installation using the Calamares installer where you had to make sure that it doesn’t overwrite your /home directory. Upgrading your Linux distro should be a straightforward process where you open a tool, check for new versions, and perform the upgrade with a few mouse clicks. Nitrux was missing such a tool until now, as the devs announced Nitrux Update Tool System, or NUTS for short. The link for this article located at 9 to 5 Linux is no longer available. . The Nitrux Upgrade Manager enhances user experience by facilitating effortless system enhancements and reverts within unchangeable configurations..
