key fobs compromised in European nations (France, Spain, and

Latvia). On October 10, 2022, European authorities arrested 31

suspects across three nations. The suspects are believed to be related

to a cybercrime ring that allegedly advertised an “automotive diagnostic

solution” online and sent out fraudulent packages to their victims. The

fraudulent packages contained malware and once installed onto the

victims vehicle, the attackers were able to unlock the vehicle, start

the ignition, then steal the vehicle without the physical key fob.

European authorities confiscated over €1 million in criminal assets

(malicious software, tools, and an online domain).

Microsoft

Office 365 has a broken encryption algorithm. Microsoft Office 365

uses an encryption algorithm called “Office 365 Message Encryption” to

send and receive encrypted email messages. The messages are encrypted in

an Electronic Codebook (ECB). The U.S. National Institute of Standards

and Technology (NIST) reported, "ECB mode encrypts plaintext blocks

independently, without randomization; therefore, the inspection of any

two ciphertext blocks reveals whether or not the corresponding plaintext

blocks are equal". Emails can be harvested today then decrypted later

for future attacks.

by auto updating, caching updates for other devices then distributing

the updates to other devices on the private blockchain.
