What happened
ISC SANS Diary digest (early March 2026) covering multiple posts: YARA-X 1.14.0 release (improvements and bugfixes); a new wave/campaign of XWorm malware and delivery techniques; brute-force scans targeting CrushFTP with historical context on serious vulnerabilities (CVE-2024-4040 template-injection RCE, CVE-2025-31161 authentication bypass, and the actively exploited July 2025 zero-day CVE-2025-54309); brief how‑to on ZIP files inside RTF and regular Stormcast podcast entries. The CrushFTP items highlight ongoing exploitation risk and the importance of patching/mitigations.
