Exposing a Global Smishing Operation Across 19 Countries: Governments, Postal Services, and Telecoms Targeted
A coordinated smishing operation spanning 19 countries across Europe, the Americas, and the Caucasus has been exposed, originating from fraudulent SMS messages impersonating Romania's government payment portal Ghișeul.ro. Investigation revealed 1,628 malicious URLs linked by a single 128-character campaign identifier, targeting government portals, traffic police departments, postal services including DPD and SEUR, tax authorities, and telecommunications providers like T-Mobile and Vodafone. The infrastructure utilizes 32 backend IP addresses distributed across Tencent Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Cloudflare CDN, and ALEXHOST Moldova. Threat actors employ two distinct phishing templates: a Vue.js single-page application and a Bootstrap-based clone, executing a four-stage credential harvesting process that collects complete payment card details through fabricated traffic fines, toll payments, and delivery notifications.

From poisoned search results to GPU mining: A cryptojacking campaign abusing ScreenConnect and Microsoft .NET utilities
Microsoft Defender Experts identified an active cryptojacking campaign leveraging AI-assisted delivery mechanisms alongside traditional SEO poisoning. Attackers create fake download sites impersonating trusted utilities like CrystalDiskInfo, HWMonitor, and FurMark, targeting users with high-performance GPUs. Victims download ZIP archives containing legitimate executables bundled with malicious DLLs that establish persistence via ScreenConnect remote access tools. The operation employs sophisticated techniques including DLL sideloading, process hollowing into Microsoft-signed .NET binaries, and comprehensive defense evasion. Beyond cryptocurrency mining, the campaign establishes persistent remote access that could enable data theft, lateral movement, or ransomware deployment. The threat actors deliberately target PC enthusiasts and hardware-focused users most likely to own discrete GPUs suitable for profitable mining operations.

Tracking Iranian APT Screening Serpens’ 2026 Espionage Campaigns
Unit 42 researchers identified six new remote access Trojan variants deployed by Iran-nexus APT group Screening Serpens between February and April 2026, coinciding with a regional conflict starting February 28, 2026. The group targeted entities in the U.S., Israel, UAE, and other Middle Eastern locations, primarily focusing on technology sector professionals through highly tailored social engineering using personalized recruitment lures. Two new malware families, MiniUpdate and MiniJunk V2, were discovered featuring advanced techniques including AppDomainManager hijacking that manipulates .NET application initialization to disable security mechanisms. The campaigns demonstrated increased technical capabilities and operational resilience, with each variant using dedicated C2 infrastructure hosted on Azure. The attacks leveraged DLL sideloading, scheduled tasks for persistence, and sophisticated evasion techniques to maintain long-term access for espionage purposes.

Whenever a friend sends me an SMS with a #Youtube link (yes, we are old-fashioned), the SMS app on my #LineageOS app shows a thumbnail for that video. I think from a #privacy perspective that's really bonkers (it snitches all of these URLs to Google).
Looks like this is the relevant code: https://github.com/LineageOS/android_packages_apps_Messaging/blob/2848bf3f84999912b074915bd39bb04fe9f6a046/src/com/android/messaging/ui/conversation/ConversationMessageView.java#L504
What are your experiences with reporting such problems to the LOS team? Is this a realistic way to get such behavior removed from the SMS app?
