The report summarizes three active threats: a ransomware attack that shut down systems and disrupted deliveries at Venezuela's state oil company PDVSA; an Iran-linked hacker group called "Handala" that has doxxed over 200 Israeli individuals and placed cash bounties on select targets; and observed exploitation of two recently disclosed critical Fortinet SAML authentication-bypass vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-59718, CVE-2025-59719), for which Fortinet has released patches and users are urged to upgrade.
