Description

In this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we discuss some intel being shared in the LimaCharlie community.

• Recent reporting from DataBreaches has added yet another twist to the attribution puzzle between Scattered Spider and ShinyHunters. https://databreaches.net/2025/08/03/are-scattered-spider-and-shinyhunters-one-group-or-two-and-who-did-france-arrest/

• A recent disclosure on the oss-security mailing list detailed a set of 11 vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel’s eBPF subsystem, originally reported by security researcher “Van1sh” to both the kernel security team and the linux-distros list on July 19. https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/08/03/1

• Microsoft’s Microsoft Active Protections Program, or MAPP, is designed to shorten the time between vulnerability discovery and patch deployment by giving trusted security vendors early access to vulnerability details. https://nattothoughts.substack.com/p/when-privileged-access-falls-into

• US law enforcement, in coordination with multiple international partners, has taken action against the BlackSuit ransomware group — also known as Royal — resulting in the seizure of four servers, nine domains, and approximately $1 million in cryptocurrency. https://www.darkreading.com/vulnerabilities-threats/blacksuit-ransomware-infrastructure-law-enforcement
