This episode covers two security incidents: researchers detail a North Korea-linked cybercrime campaign (Famous Chollima/Wage Mole) that lures targets with convincing fake job interviews to trick victims into running malicious “click-fix” updates, deploying Python/Go remote access Trojans (PyLangGhost/GoLangGhost) to exfiltrate crypto wallet data and recordings; and UCSD researchers reveal a long-standing design/credential flaw in KARR aftermarket dealer-installed car alarms that can unlock, immobilize, track, or re-enable devices across ~2.2M vehicles, exposing owners to theft and privacy risks.
