What happened
A cluster of high-impact incidents and active exploitation activity: Iran-linked Handala breached FBI Director Kash Patel’s personal email and leaked data while a separate operation deployed a wiper against Stryker; Citrix NetScaler (CVE-2026-3055, memory overread) is under active reconnaissance; CISA added F5 BIG-IP APM (CVE-2025-53521, RCE) to its KEV list due to observed exploitation. Multiple supply-chain compromises continue—TeamPCP pushed malicious versions of telnyx and backdoored litellm via Trivy/KICS compromises on PyPI—and Open VSX’s pre-publish bug allowed a malicious VS Code ext.
