Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), Japan’s space agency, recently announced that it has suffered a series of cyberattacks since last year, but sensitive information related to rockets and satellites was not affected. Officials said JAXA is currently working with the government’s cybersecurity team to introduce countermeasures, and an investigation into the incidents is still ongoing. JAXA has had a series of successes in its space program this year.

Security researchers at Claroty have recently disclosed the details of several vulnerabilities discovered in a gas chromatograph made by Emerson and warned that attacks could have a serious impact. A gas chromatograph is a chemical analysis instrument that measures the content of various components in a sample.  Such devices are used by hospitals in blood testing and by environmental facilities to measure air pollution.  The researchers found that Rosemount GC370XA, GC700XA, and GC1500XA products are affected by four vulnerabilities.

Evolve Bank and Trust recently announced that it was the victim of a cybersecurity incident that involved customers' data being illegally released on the dark web. On Tuesday, ransomware group Lockbit 3.0 posted data hacked from Evolve.  The hackers had given the bank until Tuesday afternoon to meet its ransom demands in exchange for not posting sensitive data from an alleged hack of the central bank.  Some of the data affected include account numbers and deposit balances.  The investigation into the incident is still ongoing.

New Aqua Security research found secrets from organizations, including credentials, Application Programming Interface (API) tokens, and passkeys, that have been exposed for years. Researchers discovered active secrets from open source organizations and enterprises providing access to sensitive data and software. This discovery was made by scanning the most popular 100 organizations on GitHub, which has over 50,000 publicly accessible repositories. This article continues to discuss findings regarding the significant exposure of enterprise secrets.

Threat actors are exploiting a new critical authentication bypass flaw in Progress MOVEit Transfer, which is a Managed File Transfer (MFT) solution used to securely transfer files between business partners and customers. The new security flaw enables attackers to bypass authentication in the Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) module. This flaw allows an attacker to access sensitive data, delete files, intercept file transfers, and more. This article continues to discuss the exploitation of a new MOVEit Transfer flaw.

Siemens recently patched several vulnerabilities in some of its Sicam products that could be exploited in attacks against the energy sector. In May, Siemens released updates for its Sicam A8000 remote terminal unit, Sicam EGS grid sensors, and Sicam 8 power automation software. One of the vulnerabilities is a buffer overread issue that can enable attackers to read sensitive data from memory, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution in the context of the current process or to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition.
