What happened
A Dark Reading feed summarizing widespread, high-impact cyber activity: a new Linux privilege-escalation flaw dubbed "Dirty Frag" (similar to Dirty Pipe) may already be exploited; a critical cPanel authentication-bypass saw rapid PoC/weaponization; TeamPCP supply-chain attacks continue (including compromised SAP/npm packages) alongside Vect 2.0 ransomware/wiper and PCPJack cloud-stealing activity. Other notable items: ShinyHunters' attack on Instructure, Trellix source-code exposure, RMM-based phishing affecting dozens of organizations, Microsoft Edge storing passwords in process memory (PoC),
