ShinyHunters both leaked a Florida DMV database and then turned around and hacked a rival ransomware gang’s leak site. Cisco pushed emergency patches for a second actively-exploited zero-day in a **week. U.S. authorities confirmed** they’re now monitoring nearly 20 ships worldwide following suspected tanker cyberattacks, and a [North Korean crypto-theft campaign](https://cyberscoop.com/north-korea-waterplum-job-seeker-crypto-attacks/) disguised as job interviews was exposed as having hit 30,000 devices. _Meanwhile, Google confirmed its Gemini AI model breached real companies’ systems during a security test gone wrong. Here’s the full rundown_. Strong SPF, DKIM, and [DMARC](https://www.duocircle.com/email/dmarc/) help protect [email security](https://www.duocircle.com/) against phishing and impersonation threats. ## ShinyHunters leaks Florida DMV driver data after ransom refusal The [ShinyHunters extortion gang](https://www.thedailystar.net/news/technology/news/hacker-group-claims-have-hijacked-rival-gangs-website-4278601) published hundreds of thousands of files stolen from Florida’s DAVID driver-and-vehicle database after the state agency refused to pay. The group says it got in through a password-reset weakness that let it compromise several accounts, including ones belonging to DMV employees and, allegedly, an FBI agent. As proof, it posted a screenshot of a driving record belonging to the late **Jeffrey Epstein. Florida’s motor vehicle agency** has confirmed a breach, tracing initial access to credentials that had been improperly stored on a police officer’s personal device.

It comes just days after Cisco confirmed a separate actively-exploited critical bug in its [Secure Email Gateway](https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/email-security/secure-email-gateway-seg/). CISA has added the ISE flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and ordered federal agencies to patch immediately.

US authorities have confirmed they’re now monitoring close to 20 vessels globally for similar threats. CISA has acknowledged the attacks but says there’s no evidence hackers took control of any ship, and no injuries or environmental damage have been reported. Source: [Cybernews](https://cybernews.com/news/iran-tanker-cyberattacks-us-ships-monitored/) ## ShinyHunters turns around and hacks the Clop ransomware gang In a rare hacker-on-hacker incident, ShinyHunters broke into and defaced C[lop’s dark-web leak site](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/shinyhunters-hacks-clop-leak-site-threatens-to-extort-ransomware-gang/) late on September 18, exploiting an unpatched file-upload flaw in the Grav content management system that runs the site. The group claims it stole Clop’s server logs, source code, and the [private cryptographic keys](https://www.techtarget.com/cybersecurity/definition/What-is-a-private-key) to its onion service, and says it now plans to extort the [ransomware](https://www.duocircle.com/blog/phishing-protection/the-threat-of-ransomware-is-real/) gang in retaliation for alleged death threats made during a dispute over a shared exploit used in last year’s Oracle E-Business Suite attacks. Source: [BleepingComputer](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/shinyhunters-hacks-clop-leak-site-threatens-to-extort-ransomware-gang/) ## North Korea’s fake job interview scheme infected 30,000 devices worldwide A joint advisory from US, Japanese, Australian, and German authorities revealed that a [North Korean hacking cluster tracked as WaterPlum](https://therecord.media/north-korean-hackers-infect-thousands-of-devices-waterplum-scheme) (also known as “Contagious Interview”) infected at least 30,000 devices across more than 100 countries between **December 2025 and July 2026**. The group poses as recruiters for fake AI, crypto, or NFT companies, then convinces job applicants to download malicious “coding tests.” Investigators say the group used AI face-swapping tools during video interviews and drained over 7,000 crypto wallets, funneling roughly $10.7 million back to North Korea’s weapons-development arm. Source: [BleepingComputer](https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/north-korean-waterplum-hackers-infected-30-000-devices-worldwide/) ## Google confirms Gemini AI broke into real companies during a security test Google acknowledged that its [Gemini model](https://cybersecuritynews.com/google-gemini-ai-hacked-3-real-companies/) accessed protected systems belonging to three real organizations during a “capture the flag” [cybersecurity](https://www.duocircle.com/blog/phishing-protection/how-to-be-cyber-smart-the-best-cybersecurity-tips-to-empower-your-team-this-cybersecurity-awareness-month/) evaluation. A fictional test target happened to share a name with a real company, and a configuration mistake left the AI agent with unintended internet access. _Believing it was still inside the simulation, Gemini guessed its way into one system’s password and used credentials it found exposed in public code repositories to log into two others_. Google says the model stopped itself once it realized it had reached genuine infrastructure, and stresses this isn’t classified as a safety failure. Similar incidents were reported involving models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta during the same evaluation program.

The chain started with a bug in the software running OpenAI’s public help forum and moved through a weakness in its login system. _It was a sanctioned research exercise” the team reported the flaws responsibly, proved access with a harmless pull request, and stopped_. OpenAI patched the underlying issue within 14 hours and paid a $6,500 bounty.

Source: [PKWARE](https://www.pkware.com/blog/2026-data-breaches) ## Two previously unknown flaws found in TP-Link’s popular home security camera _OPSWAT researchers disclosed two zero-day vulnerabilities in the widely sold TP-Link Tapo C200 camera, commonly used as a baby monitor and home security device_. One flaw lets an attacker on the network replay old authentication data to gain full admin access without ever knowing the password; the other can crash the **camera’s management service** with an oversized data packet. TP-Link has released a firmware fix, and OPSWAT says it’s still working with the vendor on a third, more critical flaw that could let an attacker use a compromised camera as a foothold into the rest of a home or office network.

The finding adds to a growing list of security concerns around AI agents that are given broad access to browsing sessions. Source: [Cyber Security News](https://cybersecuritynews.com/bragjack-ai-agent-hijacking/) ## CISA warns of actively exploited Linux kernel vulnerabilities CISA issued a warning that attackers are actively exploiting [three Linux kernel vulnerabilities](https://securityaffairs.com/199430/security/u-s-cisa-adds-linux-kernel-flaws-to-its-known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog-2.html), urging organizations to treat patching as urgent. The bugs create a pathway for privilege escalation, and **CISA’s advisory puts pressure** on federal agencies and enterprises alike to move quickly given confirmed in-the-wild exploitation.
