Bare Metal Cyber

This is this week’s cyber news for October 27th through October 31st, 2025. The week opens with trusted update lanes under attack and an emergency fix to protect enterprise patching. A zero day in Oracle E-Business Suite put finance and supply-chain records at risk, while a fresh B I N D issue threatened cache poisoning across hundreds of thousands of resolvers. A live Chrome exploit tied to a surveillance vendor kept risk high for targeted users, and a rebuilt ransomware toolkit reappeared with broader reach. Together, these stories show how core plumbing, business systems, and user browsers can all become first-impact points.

 

You will hear how agencies were ordered to patch exploited virtualization paths, how developer tokens were stolen via look-alike packages, and how a polished board-invite lure harvested executive credentials. We cover a Windows Subsystem for Linux encryptor tactic, active attacks on shop-floor software added to the K E V list, and hands-on tampering of exposed industrial controls. Also in the mix: a global identity outage, mass exploitation of abandoned plugins, near-field payment relay kits, an enclave side-channel, a crash-looping link, rumor control, and account-security policy changes. Leaders, defenders, and builders get practical takeaways, with the narrated episode available at DailyCyber.news.
