This week in cybersecurity from the editors at Cybercrime Magazine
Sausalito, Calif. – Aug. 11, 2026The Cybercrime Magazine YouTube Channel aka Cybercrime TV was born in Northport, N.Y. Feb. 1, 2018.
Northport is a historic seaside village on the north shore of Long Island in Suffolk County, which has been the backdrop for big-screen motion pictures, indie films, and TV shows.
Cybercrime Magazine’s team of full-time producers, hosts, writers, editors, videographers, and content specialists work out of the second floor of the Brush Building on Main Street — built in 1925 and renovated in 2017 — which is steps away from Northport Harbor.
In 2025, YouTube’s CEO presented the Cybercrime Magazine YouTube Channel with a Gold Creator Award when we surpassed one million subscribers.
Our YouTube channel is 8 years old now, and it has grown into the top b2b cybersecurity video destination for chief information security officers (CISOs) and leaders in our field.
The Cybercrime Magazine YouTube Channel is still young and filled with energy and ambition for what the future holds. And we’re here to stay in Northport Village!

The March 2026 compromise of LiteLLM was more than a short-lived malicious PyPI upload. It demonstrated how an upstream breach in developer tooling can turn AI infrastructure into a high-value conduit for credential theft, cloud intrusion, and downstream software supply chain abuse. The packages were available for roughly 40 minutes before quarantine, but their brief […]

Security researchers Alejandro Hernando, also known as 0xedh, and Borja Martínez have unveiled a research project titled “Plug & Pwn.” This project demonstrates how the Windows Plug and Play (PnP) driver installation workflows can be exploited to execute vendor-supplied code with NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM privileges. Presented at DEF CON 34, the research explores the risky intersection […]

A malicious SIM card can order the device it sits in to run commands of the attacker’s choosing. On the cellular modules built into electric-vehicle chargers, industrial routers, and car telematics units, that is enough to take the whole device over. Researchers at the University of Birmingham and the security firm Fuzzware tested 26 phones and cellular modules for the capability, found it

Mozilla has scrapped the cryptographic key behind Firefox and Thunderbird downloads for Linux after an unencrypted copy of it was committed by mistake to one of the company’s own private code repositories. That key is how a user, or a Linux distribution packaging the browser, confirms a downloaded Firefox tarball came from Mozilla and was not tampered with. That decision carries a cost for

Security researchers invented a cryptocurrency startup, advertised developer jobs, and hired three people they believe were North Korean operatives. Every virtual machine the company issued was recording. The onboarding paperwork is the part hiring teams can use. The first hire claimed to live in Pasadena, Texas, then sent a California driver’s license and a New York bank account. The

Security researchers have discovered 23 vulnerabilities in Copeland’s XWEB Pro commercial refrigeration controllers, with 21 rated as high severity. These vulnerabilities could allow unauthenticated attackers to gain root-level remote code execution and control connected cooling equipment. Claroty’s Team82 found that an attacker could exploit a combination of authentication flaws, predictable administrator credentials, and command-injection vulnerabilities […]

Mozilla has rotated a GPG signing subkey used to authenticate release artifacts for Firefox and Thunderbird after an unencrypted copy of the previous subkey was unintentionally committed to a private GitHub repository. The affected signing infrastructure includes selected release files, such as Linux tarballs, RPM packages, and checksum files. Mozilla’s investigation into available audit logs […]
