📰 AI Helped Uncover A "50-80x Improvement" For Linux's IO_uring
Linux block maintainer and IO_uring lead developer Jens Axboe recently was debugging some slowdowns in the AHCI/SCSI code with IO_uring usage. When turning to Claude AI to help in sorting through the issue, patches were devised that can deliver up to a "literally yield a 50-80x improvement on the io_uring side for idle systems." The code is on its way to the Linux kernel...

🚨 WARNING: A new Go-based RAT, #Moonrise, evades AVs and escalates from one infected endpoint to network-wide compromise.
The impact includes credential theft and hidden audio/video surveillance.

🚨 Update Your Detection Rules: New Remote Access Trojan
We caught a Go-based RAT and named it #Moonrise. At the time of the analysis, the sample had not yet been submitted to VirusTotal ❗️
The level of access enables credential harvesting, sensitive data collection, and preparation for further compromise without triggering static detections, leaving SOCs with no clear signals to act on.
⚠️ Observed capabilities include:
🔹 Privilege-related functions and persistence mechanisms
🔹 Data theft and credential harvesting
🔹 Process control and command execution
🔹 File upload and execution
🔹 User activity monitoring: screen capture and streaming, webcam and microphone access, keystroke logging, clipboard monitoring
One compromised endpoint can disrupt operations and lead to financial and reputational damage.

✅ Behavior-first triage in #ANYRUN Sandbox lets security teams confirm attacker actions, like remote command execution, UAC bypass attempts, and persistence-related activity, within minutes. Security teams reduce Tier-1 overload and unnecessary escalations, while containing incidents earlier.
