CodeRED Emergency Alerts Downed by Ransomware; Major Banks Hit in Supply Chain Breach; Russia & North Korea APTs Collaborate

Inc Ransom Attack on OnSolve Disables CodeRED Emergency Alert System Across the United States

The OnSolve CodeRED emergency alert system, a critical communication tool for hundreds of U.S. municipalities, has been taken offline following a ransomware attack claimed by the 'Inc Ransom' group. The attack, which began on November 1, 2025, resulted in the encryption of systems and the exfiltration of user data, including names, addresses, and contact information. After failed ransom negotiations, the vendor was forced to decommission the legacy platform, causing significant service disruptions for local governments in numerous states and leaving them unable to issue vital public safety notifications.

Geopolitical Shift: Russian and North Korean State Hackers Found Sharing Attack Infrastructure

Researchers Uncover Unprecedented Collaboration Between Russian Gamaredon and North Korean Lazarus APTs

In a rare and alarming discovery, security researchers have found evidence of operational collaboration between two of the world's most prolific state-sponsored hacking groups: Russia's Gamaredon (Pitty Tiger) and North Korea's Lazarus. The evidence centers on a shared command-and-control (C2) server IP address that was used by both groups within days of each other to deliver their respective malware payloads. This convergence of TTPs and infrastructure signals a potential new phase of cyber operations where geopolitical alliances between Moscow and Pyongyang are extending into direct, cooperative attacks, potentially amplifying the threat level for defenders globally.

Water Gamayun APT Exploits Novel 'MSC EvilTwin' Windows Flaw in Stealthy Attacks

Russia-Aligned Water Gamayun APT Exploits Windows MMC Vulnerability (CVE-2025-26633) in Sophisticated Campaign

The Russia-aligned APT group Water Gamayun is actively exploiting a novel vulnerability in the Windows Microsoft Management Console (MMC), tracked as CVE-2025-26633. The attack, analyzed by Zscaler and dubbed 'MSC EvilTwin,' uses a malicious .msc file to proxy code execution through the trusted mmc.exe binary, making it difficult to detect. The multi-stage campaign begins with a malicious download and uses embedded commands to execute hidden PowerShell payloads. This technique allows the attackers to install backdoors and information stealers while evading traditional security measures, showcasing the group's continued sophistication in developing stealthy intrusion methods.
