Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Director Jen Easterly told industry leaders in a phone briefing Monday that a vulnerability in a widely-used logging library “is one of the most serious I’ve seen in my entire career, if not the most serious.” “We expect the vulnerability to be widely exploited by sophisticated actors and we have limited time to take necessary steps in order to reduce the likelihood of damage,” she said of the Apache Log4j flaw. The issue is an unauthenticated remote execution vulnerability that could allow an intruder to take over an affected device. Hundreds of millions of devices are likely to be affected, said Jay Gazlay of CISA’s vulnerability management office in the call with critical infrastructure owners and operators. CISA, a component of the Department of Homeland Security, is setting up a dedicated website as soon as Tuesday to provide information and counter “active disinformation,” said Eric […]

Palfinger, an Austrian firm that makes cranes and other machinery, said Monday that an “ongoing global cyberattack” had disrupted the company’s ability to process orders and shipments of its equipment. Email services across the company were down in an incident that was causing “massive effects on its IT infrastructure,” Palfinger said in a statement greeting visitors to its website.

Police in Europe have arrested 26 people in an effort against two gangs of scammers who would take over victims’ phones, then steal financial and personal data from the devices. Law enforcement in Spain and Romania, in coordination with Europol, arrested 12 and 14 people, respectively, in actions against two distinct groups of SIM swappers, Europol announced Friday. SIM swapping occurs when thieves convince phone companies to give them access to an individual’s phone number, often by impersonating the victim during a call with a customer service representative. This grants attackers access to incoming phone calls, text messages and credentials like one-time codes that various sites send via text as part of the two-factor authentication process. The group in Spain stole more than €3 million ($3.34 million) in a series 100 attacks, Europol said. In each instance, the group walked off with between €6,000 ($6,700) and €137,000 ($153,000) from hacked bank […]
