- IBM Security Trusteer uncovered a new malware campaign using JavaScript web injections with a possible connection to DanaBot.
- Kaspersky published some new research in which they have identified a vulnerability in Apple System on a chip - or SOC - that has played a critical role in the attacks they saw in Operation Triangulation.
