∗∗∗ Jumpy Pisces Engages in Play Ransomware ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Jumpy Pisces, also known as Andariel and Onyx Sleet, was historically involved in cyberespionage, financial crime and ransomware attacks. [..] We expect their attacks will increasingly target a wide range of victims globally. Network defenders should view Jumpy Pisces activity as a potential precursor to ransomware attacks, not just espionage, underscoring the need for heightened vigilance.

A new, more sophisticated variant of the FakeCall malware is targeting Android devices.

∗∗∗ Nach Pwn2Own: QNAP und Synology patchen ausgenutzte NAS-Lücken ∗∗∗
---------------------------------------------
Für auf der Pwn2Own ausgenutzte TrueNAS-Lücken scheint es derweil noch keine Patches zu geben – dafür aber Hinweise, wie Nutzer ihre Systeme vor möglichen Angriffen schützen können. [..] Erste Patches gibt es beispielsweise von Synology. Das Unternehmen hat schon am 25. Oktober Updates für Beephotos für Beestation OS 1.0 und 1.1 sowie Synology Photos 1.7 und 1.6 für DSM 7.2 bereitgestellt.  Diese schließen jeweils eine kritische Sicherheitslücke, die es Angreifern erlaubt, aus der Ferne Schadcode auszuführen.
