What happened
A multi-topic threat roundup: researchers disclosed a likely LLM-assisted IoT botnet framework (TuxBot v3 Evolution) and new malware families (OkoBot targeting hardware-wallet seed phrases, LabubaRAT RAT, CrashStealer for macOS). Multiple high-severity vulnerabilities and active exploits were reported — notably two critical Firefox flaws with public exploit code (CVE-2026-15718, CVE-2026-15719), two SonicWall SMA 1000 zero-days including a CVSS 10.0 SSRF exploited in the wild (CVE-2026-15409), and a critical SAP NetWeaver ABAP out-of-bounds write (CVE-2026-44747).
