This activity was found and reported by BACS student Adam Thorman as part of one of his assignments which I posted his final paper [1] last week. This activity appeared to only have occurred on the 19 Feb 2026 where at least 2 sensors detected on the same day by DShield sensor in the cowrie logs an echo command that included: "MAGIC_PAYLOAD_KILLER_HERE_OR_LEAVE_EMPTY_iranbot_was_here". My DShield sensor captured activity from source IP 64.89.161.198 between 30 Jan - 22 Feb 2026 that included portscans, a successful login via Telnet (TCP/23) and web access that included all the activity listed below captured by the DShield sensor (cowrie, webhoneypot & iptables logs).

CrushFTP is a Java-based open source file transfer system. It is offered for multiple operating systems. If you run a CrushFTP instance, you may remember that the software has had some serious vulnerabilities: CVE-2024-4040 (the template-injection flaw that let unauthenticated attackers escape the VFS sandbox and achieve RCE), CVE-2025-31161 (the auth-bypass that handed over the crushadmin account on a silver platter), and the July 2025 zero-day CVE-2025-54309 that was actively exploited in the wild.

The threat highlights a significant security challenge termed the 'Blast Radius Problem,' where stolen credentials are being leveraged to weaponize agentic AI systems. IBM X-Force tracked that 56% of vulnerabilities in 2025 required no authentication for exploitation, increasing the risk of unauthorized access. This situation enables attackers to use stolen credentials to control AI agents, potentially automating and amplifying attacks such as remote code execution (RCE). Although no known exploits are currently active in the wild, the medium severity rating reflects the potential for significant damage if weaponized. Organizations face increased risks of data breaches, system compromise, and operational disruption due to this evolving threat landscape. Mitigation requires focused credential protection, AI system monitoring, and strict access controls. Countries with high adoption of AI technologies and large digital infrastructures are most at risk. The threat severity is assessed as medium due to the combination of ease of exploitation and the potential impact on confidentiality and integrity without immediate widespread exploitation evidence.
By Aviv Donenfeld and Oded Vanunu Executive Summary Check Point Research has discovered critical vulnerabilities in Anthropic’s Claude Code that allow attackers to achieve remote code execution and steal API credentials through malicious project configurations. The vulnerabilities exploit various configuration mechanisms including Hooks, Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, and environment variables -executing arbitrary shell commands […] The post Caught in the Hook: RCE and API Token Exfiltration Through Claude Code Project Files | CVE-2025-59536 | CVE-2026-21852<other cve="" id="" tbd=""></other> appeared first on Check Point Research .
Optimizely, a prominent ad tech company, suffered a cyberattack in which attackers accessed internal business systems including Zendesk and Salesforce. While no direct evidence of remote code execution exploitation or widespread active exploits has been reported, the breach involved sensitive internal platforms that manage customer support and sales data. The attack highlights risks to SaaS-integrated business environments and the potential for data exposure or lateral movement within corporate networks. Organizations relying on similar cloud-based business tools should be vigilant. The severity is assessed as medium due to the nature of accessed systems and lack of confirmed exploitation of critical vulnerabilities. Mitigation should focus on strengthening access controls, monitoring for unusual activity, and ensuring robust incident response capabilities. Countries with significant digital advertising sectors and extensive use of SaaS platforms are most at risk, including the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, Canada, and Japan.
