Recent reports highlight a series of cyberattacks involving North Korean and Russian hackers exploiting vulnerabilities in Windows systems. North Korean hackers have been using AI to enhance their cyber espionage tactics. Meanwhile, Russian hackers, particularly the APT28 group, have been actively exploiting a critical Windows vulnerability, CVE-2022-38028, and an old Windows print spooler bug to deploy 'GooseEgg' malware, which allows them to hijack networks and gain escalated access. These vulnerabilities have granted hackers rootkit-like powers, posing significant threats to global cybersecurity.
