What happened
The UK NCSC published a set of advisories and guidance spanning high‑risk operational issues: active software supply‑chain compromises of open‑source packages, an impending ‘vulnerability patch wave’ to address long‑running technical debt, and practical ZTNA/zero‑trust design guidance. It warns of China‑linked covert networks of compromised edge devices and an APT28 campaign hijacking vulnerable routers to perform DNS‑hijacking and credential/token theft. Other guidance covers safer authentication (passkeys), device display link protection (SilentGlass), cross‑domain deployment, and cautious,审
