What happened

Cybersecurity news digest covering a malware campaign allegedly infecting 80,000 freelancers, a healthcare data breach affecting more than 9.5 million people, a pro-Ukraine ransomware group targeting Russian companies, exposure of donor information from Russian fundraising projects, and international disruption of the Sality botnet. The items describe significant criminal, hacktivist, ransomware, data-exposure, and law-enforcement activity, but provide insufficient technical detail to map specific CVEs.
