Russian Hackers Have a New Way Into Your Signal Messages — and It's Disturbingly Simple

Russian Hackers Have a New Way Into Your Signal Messages — and It's Disturbingly Simple If you use Signal and have ever received a message warning you about a security update or an account sync problem, read this carefully. The FBI and CISA have issued an updated warning about a sophisticated phishing campaign, tied to Russian intelligence services, that has quietly evolved into something more dangerous than its earlier form. Rather than trying to crack Signal's famously strong encryption — which remains unbroken — these attackers have found a far easier path in: your backup recovery key. How the Scam Works It starts with a convincing message. The attackers pose as Signal's support team and tell you that following a wave of hacking attempts by actors from Iran and post-Soviet countries, Signal is rolling out "mandatory two-factor verification." It feels urgent. It looks official. And it comes with step-by-step instructions. Those instructions walk you through...

When the AI Fixes the Bug — and Opens the Backdoor

  When the AI Fixes the Bug — and Opens the Backdoor A new class of supply chain attack exploits agentic coding tools to deliver payloads that no scanner will ever find There is no malicious code in the repository. The AI never decides to open a shell. The attack works anyway. Researchers at Mozilla's Zero Day Investigative Network (0DIN) have demonstrated a proof-of-concept attack that targets developers using agentic coding tools — AI systems like Claude Code that can autonomously clone repositories, install dependencies, and run setup commands on your behalf. The attack delivers a reverse shell to the developer's machine with, as the researchers put it, "no exploit code, no warning, no suspicious command anyone had to approve." It is not the most technically complex attack ever devised. It is, however, one of the most cleverly designed — because its primary feature is invisibility. Three harmless pieces, one dangerous machine The attack is built from three c...
