What happened

Dark Reading headlines (May 2026) highlight multiple high-risk, actively exploited threats: a CVSS 10.0 Cisco SD‑WAN vulnerability exploited in the wild, reports of critical/zero-day activity (including a critical cPanel auth‑bypass and a Dirty Frag Linux privilege‑escalation), and widespread ransomware impacting manufacturing (Nitrogen/Foxconn). The collection also covers supply‑chain compromises (malicious RubyGems, npm worm infections), major APT campaigns (FrostyNeighbor, FamousSparrow, Silver Fox), attackers weaponizing AI for exploit development and automated tooling, and other high‑risk
