Researchers recently found another Software Supply Chain issue in BoltDB, a popular database tool in the Go programming environment. The BoltDB Go Module was found backdoored and contained hidden malicious code. This version took advantage of how Go manages and caches its modules, allowing it to go unnoticed for several years. This backdoor allows hackers to remotely control infected computers through a server that sends them commands i.e. via a command and control server.

Building a vulnerability management (VM) program from the ground up is no small feat. It requires technical expertise, organizational buy-in, and a clear roadmap. In recent months, I’ve been working with a client who had to discard their legacy approach and start afresh. We came to realize just how many components have to come together to get a decent start on a VM project while also showing value along the way.

Security teams and developers are drowning in product security alerts. Every security scan generates a flood of issues, and manually reviewing, prioritizing, and assigning each one is time-consuming and inefficient. The result? Critical risks get buried in long backlogs, while developers waste time chasing issues that don’t actually introduce real risk.

Tanium Remediation Visibility is a game-changer for vulnerability and exposure management. This post describes a number of foundational capabilities of Tanium Autonomous Endpoint Management. Check out this Tanium AEM overview for a high-level explanation of capabilities and benefits.

A newly discovered zero-day vulnerability, CVE-2025-24085 is a use-after-free vulnerability affecting Apple products, including iOS and macOS. It has been addressed in updates such as iOS 18.3 and macOS Sequoia 15.3 has emerged on the dark web and poses a severe security risk to Apple users. The exploit reportedly sells for 0.00254009 BTC ($233.09 USD) and enables attackers to escalate privileges within iOS devices. Researchers confirm that the vulnerability has been actively exploited in the wild.

As organizations increase their reliance on cloud services, remote work tools, IoT devices and smart infrastructures, and the use of third-party vendors, their exposure to cyber threats increases. Traditional approaches to vulnerability management are unable to keep up with rapidly changing business needs and an expanding attack surface. While scanning and patching known vulnerabilities remains critical, today’s complex threat landscape demands a more comprehensive strategy.
