  1. Threat Actors Weaponize Tiflux RMMs in Malspam Attacks

    Since late February, there has been an uptick in incidents involving Tiflux, a lesser-known Brazilian commercial remote management tool being weaponized by threat actors. The attack chain begins with phishing emails containing fake document lures that deliver a malicious MSI installer. Once executed, the installer deploys multiple remote access tools including UltraVNC, Splashtop, and ScreenConnect for persistent access. The Tiflux installer contains concerning components such as outdated VNC versions from 2014, expired certificates, hardcoded passwords, and a vulnerable HwRwDrv.sys driver known for privilege escalation abuse. The threat actors leverage these tools to establish persistence, capture screenshots, and collect system profiling information. This campaign exemplifies the continuing pattern of adversaries abusing legitimate remote management software for stealthy access to victim environments while chaining multiple tools together to maintain control.

  2. People of #Android, I have decided to free you from the thrall of srccpy and scammy #RDP and #VNC servers for Android and make sure you can RDP to your phone, because… no good reason, really, other than I hate having 13 remote access apps:

  3. Cyberattacks Expose 1.8M RDP Servers Online

    A shocking 1.8 million RDP servers are currently vulnerable to cyberattacks, leaving them open to exploitation by opportunistic hackers. Canadian authorities have also cracked down on SMS blaster phishing, arresting three men and seizing a device that sent fake texts to unsuspecting phones.

  5. Foxit Impersonation: Fake PDF Installer Deploys VNC

    Attackers are leveraging the trusted reputation of Foxit PDF Reader, used by over 650 million people, to distribute malicious installers disguised as legitimate software. Rather than exploiting vulnerabilities, threat actors impersonate the vendor through fake installers with document-themed filenames that bypass user suspicion. When executed, these files display decoy passport images while downloading malicious MSI packages that deploy UltraVNC remote access tools disguised as GPU drivers. The attack establishes persistence through registry modifications and firewall exceptions, connecting to attacker-controlled infrastructure for complete remote system control. Telemetry indicates broad distribution across Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Ukraine. This campaign demonstrates how brand impersonation combined with social engineering proves more effective than technical exploits, relying on user trust and behavioral patterns rather than software vulnerabilities.

  6. My homeserver went silent. DNS died. Router failover was useless as always β€” so I fixed it properly. keepalived floating IP, both AdGuards in parity, warm standby backups for Vaultwarden and Gitea. Also accidentally learned a lot about headless XRDP the hard way β€” LXQt, TigerVNC, rage quitting, and eventually XRDP and XFCE just working. Part 16!

  7. Lambda-Display-Upgrade auf V3: Was sich verbessert hat – und was nicht

    tl;dr: Gerade wurde bei uns das Display der Lambda EU08L-WΓ€rmepumpe vom Steuerungsset 02 auf das neue Steuerungsset 03 getauscht. Die Hardware ist ein deutlicher Sprung – kapazitives Glas-Display, hΓΆhere AuflΓΆsung, spΓΌrbar schnellere Reaktionszeiten. Der Upgrade-Prozess selbst ist allerdings alles andere als komfortabel: SΓ€mtliche Einstellungen gehen verloren und mΓΌssen manuell neu eingegeben werden. Kostenpunkt: bei uns rund 930 € inkl. allem – der Preis hΓ€ngt vom jeweiligen […]

  8. Mal ne Frage zu alter Hardware.
    Ich hab hier ein altes #ipad3 und wollte es als #homeassistant Dashboard benutzen, aber die Seite lΓ€d nicht. Und eine #vnc App aus dem Store kann ich nicht installieren weil die alte Version nicht mehr unterstΓΌtzt wird...
    Hat dazu irgendwer eine LΓΆsung?
    Danke

  9. NGL, setting up #VNC *or* #RDP with a headless *wayland* server instead of X11 is a really effing effing effing pain.

    Yes, I know, but I do need to test-drive #wayland stuff, because we're doing rollout shenanigans for next semester and so for the moment I'm stuck in a mess of test-driving a #Linux live image we'd want to net-boot and it's... less-than ideal 😜

  10. What's the go-to for remoting into another Linux machine with graphics?

    Both are running Linux Mint if that impacts choices. Server / client recs welcome

  13. @holgi Ich bin froh, dass ich bei Erscheinen von Tahoe noch jung und frisch war. Jetzt wenn ich so draufblicke, wirds echt aufwΓΌhlend. So sieht Tahoe ΓΌbrigens bei mir im Moment aus. Aber mit #vnc sehe ich noch die ganze Pracht.
