Attackers were busy. Defenders were busy. And somewhere in the middle, a whole lot of people had a very bad Monday morning. That's kind of just how it goes now. The good news? There were some actual wins this week. Real ones. The kind where the good guys showed up, did the work, and made a dent. It doesn't always happen, so when it does, it's worth noting. The bad news? For every win, there's a fresh headache waiting right behind it.

New tricks, old tricks dressed up in new clothes, and a few things that'll make you want to go touch grass and never log back in. But you will. We all do. So here's everything that mattered this week — the wins, the warnings, and the stuff you really shouldn't ignore. Tycoon 2FA and LeakBase Operations Dismantled — The infrastructure hosting the Tycoon2FA service, which Europol said was among the largest adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) phishing operations worldwide, has been dismantled by a coalition of security companies and law enforcement agencies.

"Taking down infrastructure associated with Tycoon 2FA and identifying the individual allegedly responsible for creating this prolific hacking tool will have a significant impact on overall MFA credential phishing, and hopefully strike a blow to the world's most prolific AitM phishing-as-a-service," Proofpoint said in a statement shared with The Hacker News. Phishing kits and PhaaS platforms have become an Achilles' heel in recent years, streamlining and democratizing phishing attacks for less technically savvy hackers by providing them with a suite of tools to create convincing emails and phishing pages that unsuspecting victims will engage with.

For a relatively modest fee, aspiring cybercriminals can subscribe to these services and carry out phishing attacks at scale. In a similar development, authorities also took down LeakBase, one of the world's largest online forums for cybercriminals to buy and sell stolen data and cybercrime tools. While the disruption is a positive development, it's known that such takedowns typically create only short-term disruptions, as the ecosystem adapts by migrating to other forums or more resilient distribution channels, like Telegram.  Shadow AI is quietly accessing sensitive data across your SaaS environment.

New vulnerabilities show up every week, and the window between disclosure and exploitation keeps getting shorter. The flaws below are this week's most critical — high-severity, widely used software, or already drawing attention from the security community. Check these first, patch what applies, and don't wait on the ones marked urgent — CVE-2026-2796 (Mozilla Firefox), CVE-2026-21385 (Qualcomm), CVE-2026-2256 (MS-Agent), CVE-2026-26198 (Ormar), CVE-2026-27966 (langflow), CVE-2025–64712 (Unstructured.io), CVE-2026-24009 (Docling), CVE-2026-23600 (HPE AutoPass License Server), CVE-2026-27636, CVE-2026-28289 (aka Mail2Shell) (FreeScout), CVE-2025-67736 (FreePBX), CVE-2025-34288 (Nagios XI), CVE-2025-14500 (IceWarp), CVE-2026-20079 (Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center), CVE-2025-13476 (Viber app for Android), CVE-2026-3336, CVE-2026-3337, CVE-2026-3338 (Amazon AWS-LC), CVE-2026-25611 (MongoDB), CVE-2026-3536, CVE-2026-3537, CVE-2026-3538 (Google Chrome), CVE-2026-27970 (Angular), CVE-2026-29058 (AVideo) a privilege escalation flaw in IPVanish VPN for macOS (no CVE), and and a remote code execution vulnerability in Ghost CMS (no CVE).

Disclaimer: For research and educational use only. Not security-audited. Review all code before use, test in isolated environments, and ensure compliance with applicable laws. That's your week. A lot happened. Some of it was bad, some of it was worse, and a little bit of it was actually good. The scoreboard is messy, like it always is. Same time next week — and if history is any guide, we'll have plenty more to talk about.

Stay patched, stay skeptical, and maybe don't click that link.
