Some recipients report receiving the notice in Spanish despite not being customers.

Outsourced IT Helpdesks: Closing a Critical Security Gap

📞 Outsourced helpdesks are increasingly targeted by vishing and other social‑engineering campaigns. Attackers can exploit service‑desk privileges to reset passwords, disable MFA, enroll devices or elevate access, enabling lateral movement. Clients should require evidence of ISO 27001 compliance, enforce least‑privilege, strict caller authentication and continuous, scenario‑based agent training. Technical controls such as caller ID spoofing detection, deepfake audio checks and MFA on helpdesk tools — combined with MDR monitoring — help close this gap.

Scattered Lapsus$ Extortion Site Goes Dark — Next Steps

🔒 Police seized several domains tied to the Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters extortion network, but one dark‑web mirror remained briefly accessible and was used to publish alleged data on October 10. The site listed victims including Qantas, Vietnam Airlines, Albertsons, GAP, Fujifilm, and Engie Resources, with claimed volumes from millions to hundreds of thousands of records. Authorities caution that domain seizures are tactical wins: actors often resurrect forums from backups or migrate to platforms such as Telegram, and the group has even promised a 2026 return with a subscription-based extortion-as-a-service model.

Malicious npm, PyPI and RubyGems Packages Use Discord C2

⚠️ Researchers at a software supply chain security firm found multiple malicious packages across npm, PyPI, and RubyGems that use Discord webhooks as a command-and-control channel to exfiltrate developer secrets. Examples include npm packages that siphon config files and a Ruby gem that sends host files like /etc/passwd to a hard-coded webhook. The investigators warn that webhook-based C2 is cheap, fast, and blends into normal traffic, enabling early-stage compromise via install-time hooks and build scripts. The disclosure also links a large North Korean campaign that published hundreds of malicious packages to deliver stealers and backdoors.

Hotel Booking Software Vulnerability Exposed Millions' Data

🔓 Security researchers from Zerforschung discovered a vulnerability in the Gubse AG hotel booking system that exposed customer data including names, addresses, identity documents and credit card details. Investigators estimate more than 35.5 million reservations and 48.5 million guest records were retrievable, with Motel One especially affected. A number of hostel and hotel groups, including DJH state hostels, AWO SANO and the DeHoGa campus, were named. Vendors report the gaps have been closed and say there is no confirmed misuse or public leak so far.

Token Theft Fuels SaaS Breaches — Security Teams Must Act

🔐 Token theft is now a primary vector for SaaS breaches, with stolen OAuth, API keys, and session tokens enabling attackers to bypass MFA and access integrated services. High-profile incidents from 2023 to 2025 show how a single unrotated token can compromise code, secrets, or customer data across platforms. Teams should prioritize discovery, continuous monitoring, and strict token hygiene—rotation, least-privilege scopes, approval workflows, and prompt revocation.

Defend the Target, Not Just the Door: Google Workspace

🛡️ Modern cloud work lives across email, files, chat, and a mesh of integrations, and attackers increasingly exploit trusted OAuth grants rather than compromising accounts directly. In early August the actor behind recent Salesforce intrusions used stolen Drift email tokens to access a small set of Google Workspace mailboxes; Google revoked the tokens and disabled the integration on August 9. Material Security advocates shifting from perimeter-only defenses to content-centric controls such as message-level MFA, OAuth governance, and automated containment to make stolen tokens far less damaging.
