Organizations running affected Joomla installations must patch immediately. Federal agencies have been directed to prioritize remediation. DETAILS: CISA added multiple Joomla extension vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, confirming active in-the-wild exploitation Affected extensions include Joomlack Page Builder and JoomShaper SP Page Builder; specific CVE identifiers and CVSS scores not provided in available reporting Vulnerabilities allow unauthenticated remote code execution on vulnerable Joomla installations Exploitation is occurring in active attacks; threat actors are leveraging these flaws against live targets Federal agencies received mandatory patching directives with urgent timelines per CISA protocol IMPACT: ...

Published Monday, July 13, 2026 at 01:34 PM PT BLUF: U.S. and allied officials are warning critical infrastructure defenders that Russian state-sponsored actors are conducting active campaigns against network devices in defense, communications, energy, finance, government, and healthcare sectors. Organizations should immediately audit network device configurations, apply available patches, and monitor for unauthorized access. Attribution to Russian military intelligence (GRU) is confirmed by multiple allied governments. ...

Published Monday, July 13, 2026 at 07:32 AM PT BLUF: US and allied governments have issued coordinated warnings of active Russian state-sponsored cyber operations targeting critical infrastructure sectors. Organizations operating energy, communications, and other essential services should immediately review defensive postures and patch known vulnerabilities. Attribution to Russian military and intelligence services confirmed by multiple governments. DETAILS: US, UK, and Australian authorities have jointly warned of ongoing Russian cyber campaigns targeting critical infrastructure, with confirmed activity against US Department of Energy and other essential sectors Nine of twelve tracked vulnerabilities cited in the advisory are currently being actively probed in the wild, per GreyNoise telemetry Russian GRU (military intelligence) units have been specifically identified as conducting these operations; EU has imposed sanctions on GRU-linked cyber actors for related attacks Attack infrastructure includes compromised remote access tools; BeyondTrust remote access software vulnerabilities are confirmed in active exploitation Secondary threat vector identified: Russian threat actors targeting Signal backup recovery keys to compromise encrypted communications of potential targets IMPACT: ...

Published Monday, July 13, 2026 at 07:31 AM PT BLUF: US cybersecurity authorities and allied governments (UK, others) have issued formal warnings of ongoing Russian cyber operations targeting critical infrastructure sectors. Multiple threat actors—including Russian military intelligence (GRU) and pro-Russia hacktivist groups—are conducting reconnaissance and exploitation attempts. Organizations in energy, utilities, logistics, and technology sectors should immediately audit network access, patch known vulnerabilities, and increase monitoring. Specific vulnerability details are being actively exploited in the wild. ...

Published Monday, July 13, 2026 at 01:30 AM PT BLUF: Nation-state actors are conducting sustained, coordinated campaigns against operational technology (OT) and industrial control systems (ICS) in manufacturing environments. Organizations operating critical production infrastructure should assume elevated targeting and review network segmentation and monitoring immediately. DETAILS CYFIRMA reports convergence of nation-state espionage operations with financially-motivated threat actors targeting manufacturing OT/ICS environments, indicating coordinated pressure on industrial sector Attack landscape characterized as “broader and more diverse” — suggests multiple state actors and attack methodologies in play, though specific attribution remains unclear from available reporting Campaigns appear to blend traditional espionage objectives with ransomware and data exfiltration tactics, creating dual-threat exposure for targeted organizations Manufacturing sector identified as primary focus, though specific subsectors and geographic regions not detailed in available summary Uncertainty flag: Full technical indicators of compromise (IOCs), specific nation-state attributions, and affected organizations not yet disclosed in public reporting IMPACT ...

Published Monday, July 13, 2026 at 01:29 AM PT BLUF: Cyolo announced a new CPS Segmentation feature designed to enforce zero-trust architecture and restrict lateral movement across operational technology (OT) and cyber-physical systems (CPS) environments.
