A combination of propagation methods, narrative sophistication, and evasion techniques enabled the social engineering tactic known as ClickFix to take off the way it did over the past year, according to new findings from Guardio Labs.
“Like a real-world virus variant, this new ‘ClickFix’ strain quickly outpaced and ultimately wiped out the infamous fake browser update scam that plagued the web
In episode 62 of The AI Fix, your hosts learn how AI models smash through CAPTCHA roadblocks like they’re made of wet tissue paper – so much for humanity’s last line of defence.
Meanwhile, we meet a bottle-flipping robot and call BS on a cartwheeling cyborg, Graham has a full-blown breakdown over traffic light puzzles, and Anthropic hires an AI psychiatry team to figure out why its bots are unhinged.
Also: Microsoft helpfully tells us which jobs are toast, Vogue replaces models with AI-generated glam-bots, and a tiny homebrew neural net humiliates the big boys at Sudoku.
Plus, Mark explores GEPA — the AI prompt optimiser that politely mutates your questions until they’re 35 times more effective than reinforcement learning.
All this and much more is discussed in the latest edition of “The AI Fix” podcast by Graham Cluley and Mark Stockley.
Google has released security updates to address multiple security flaws in Android, including fixes for two Qualcomm bugs that were flagged as actively exploited in the wild.
The vulnerabilities include CVE-2025-21479 (CVSS score: 8.6) and CVE-2025-27038 (CVSS score: 7.5), both of which were disclosed alongside CVE-2025-21480 (CVSS score: 8.6), by the chipmaker back in June 2025.
CVE-2025-21479
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed a high-severity security flaw in the artificial intelligence (AI)-powered code editor Cursor that could result in remote code execution.
The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-54136 (CVSS score: 7.2), has been codenamed MCPoison by Check Point Research, owing to the fact that it exploits a quirk in the way the software handles modifications to Model
In SaaS security conversations, “misconfiguration” and “vulnerability” are often used interchangeably. But they’re not the same thing. And misunderstanding that distinction can quietly create real exposure.
This confusion isn’t just semantics. It reflects a deeper misunderstanding of the shared responsibility model, particularly in SaaS environments where the line between vendor and customer
Why do SOC teams still drown in alerts even after spending big on security tools? False positives pile up, stealthy threats slip through, and critical incidents get buried in the noise. Top CISOs have realized the solution isn’t adding more and more tools to SOC workflows but giving analysts the speed and visibility they need to catch real attacks before they cause damage.
Here’s how
Cybersecurity researchers have lifted the veil on a widespread malicious campaign that’s targeting TikTok Shop users globally with an aim to steal credentials and distribute trojanized apps.
“Threat actors are exploiting the official in-app e-commerce platform through a dual attack strategy that combines phishing and malware to target users,” CTM360 said. “The core tactic involves a deceptive
SonicWall said it’s actively investigating reports to determine if there is a new zero-day vulnerability following reports of a spike in Akira ransomware actors in late July 2025.
“Over the past 72 hours, there has been a notable increase in both internally and externally reported cyber incidents involving Gen 7 SonicWall firewalls where SSLVPN is enabled,” the network security vendor said in a
A newly disclosed set of security flaws in NVIDIA’s Triton Inference Server for Windows and Linux, an open-source platform for running artificial intelligence (AI) models at scale, could be exploited to take over susceptible servers.
“When chained together, these flaws can potentially allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to gain complete control of the server, achieving remote code execution
Cybersecurity researchers are calling attention to a new wave of campaigns distributing a Python-based information stealer called PXA Stealer.
The malicious activity has been assessed to be the work of Vietnamese-speaking cybercriminals who monetize the stolen data through a subscription-based underground ecosystem that automates the resale and reuse via Telegram APIs, according to a joint
