Catch This Zero-Day: Black Basta’s Sneaky Windows Exploit Unveiled!

In a twist worthy of a hacker heist movie, Black Basta may have sneakily leveraged a Windows bug, CVE-2024-26169, for SYSTEM-level shenanigans. Microsoft patched, but Symantec’s sleuths suspect the ransomware rascals romped in pre-patch. Cue the cyber caper soundtrack! 🎶💻🔓 #ZeroDayExploit

Hot Take:

Just when you thought it was safe to trust your computer again, along comes the Black Basta gang, waving their "We Wuz Here Before Patch Tuesday" flag. Apparently, these cyber ne'er-do-wells might have been playing 'hide and pwn' with a Windows vulnerability that Microsoft thought it had on lockdown. Plot twist: the patch was more like a band-aid on a dam leak, and the Black Basta crew were the water pressure.
