Lo zero‑click è il capolavoro finale: Google e IA si mangiano il web, sputano riassuntini che piacciono agli utenti e lasciano editori ed e‑commerce a digiuno. Contenuti presi a camionate, traffico restituito col contagocce. Poi ci stupiamo se chi crea smette: quando il motore di ricerca diventa la risposta, il resto del web è solo cava da cui estrarre gratis materia prima.

"A newly uncovered zero-click attack targets iPhone users running iOS 16, allowing threat actors to hijack WhatsApp accounts without any user interaction, visible prompts, or warnings about linked devices."

Zero-click attacks are always scary, since the user is not required to click on links or open a file in order for the exploit to work. The article mentions that zero-click vulnerabilities now become more and more common, but I am not so sure about that. Does anyone have data on that?

LNK — это гораздо больше, чем просто ярлык к файлу

Вы всегда знаете, что скрывается за простым ярлыком? Почему злоумышленники часто используют вредоносные ярлыки для заражения? Сегодня попытаемся разобраться, почему и как простой ярлык может привести к компрометации, как исследовать такие подозрительные файлы и почему эту угрозу так сложно устранить.

Alerta en Windows: Un parche incompleto permite ataques «Zero-Click»

Una falla en la actualización de seguridad de Microsoft ha dejado una puerta abierta para que hackers vinculados a Rusia ejecuten ataques sin necesidad de interacción del usuario, poniendo en riesgo datos sensibles en toda Europa (Fuente Akamai).

La seguridad de Windows se enfrenta a una crisis de confianza tras el descubrimiento de un parche defectuoso. Según un informe de Akamai, una corrección lanzada inicialmente en febrero para mitigar una vulnerabilidad en SmartScreen resultó ser insuficiente. Este parche incompleto ha dado lugar a una nueva vulnerabilidad crítica (identificada como CVE-2026-32202), que permite ataques del tipo «Zero-Click» (sin clics). En estos ataques, el simple hecho de que un usuario visualice una carpeta que contenga un archivo malicioso permite al atacante forzar una autenticación automática con su servidor, robando las credenciales del usuario sin que este se dé cuenta.

El grupo de ciberespionaje ruso APT28 (también conocido como Fancy Bear) ha sido identificado como el principal explotador de esta brecha. Los investigadores señalan que el grupo ha estado utilizando archivos de acceso directo (.lnk) modificados para saltarse las protecciones de Windows y ejecutar código remoto. Al aprovechar el mecanismo de procesamiento de iconos de Windows Explorer, los atacantes logran que el sistema de la víctima envíe su «hash» de autenticación NTLM a un servidor remoto, lo que facilita el robo de identidad y el movimiento lateral dentro de redes corporativas y gubernamentales, especialmente en Ucrania y países de la Unión Europea.

Microsoft ha incluido una nueva corrección para este fallo específico en su tanda de parches de abril de 2026. Sin embargo, la persistencia de estas brechas subraya la complejidad de parchear sistemas heredados como Windows Shell y el framework MSHTML. Los expertos en ciberseguridad recomiendan encarecidamente a las organizaciones aplicar las últimas actualizaciones de forma inmediata y considerar la desactivación de protocolos de autenticación antiguos como NTLM en entornos sensibles para prevenir este tipo de «coerción de autenticación» que la IA y los grupos estatales están empezando a explotar con mayor frecuencia.

ChatGPT also relies less on the live web, triggering search on 34.5% of queries, down from 46% in late 2024.”

This obviously will result in fewer direct clicks to those websites.”

It allows attackers to seize full control by just visiting a compromised website, without requiring any clicks, downloads, or user interaction. The malware operates in memory, deleting its own traces to avoid detection.

Update to iOS 26.3.1 or the latest available version (18.7.6 or higher). If you are running an older hardware, update to at least iOS 15, for emergency patches for older devices.

Go to Settings > General > Software Update to ensure you are fully updated.

If you cannot update immediately, or if you are at high risk, enable Lockdown Mode. This is an extreme, high-security mode. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Lockdown Mode and turn it on.

Por que QR Codes são proibidos no grupo de segurança

- Um QR malicioso pode gerar um ataque “zero-click” e instalar malware no celular ou no computador sem a pessoa notar.

Wahnsinn - der Traffic auf Webseiten durch organische G**glesuchen ist zwischen 11/24 und 11/25 in den USA um 38 Prozent eingebrochen (!), global sind es 33 Prozent. Es ist nicht ganz bezifferbar, wie viele davon durch KI-Zusammenfassungen verursacht wurden, Studien zeigen aber bereits, dass die Anwesenheit von solchen Zusammenfassungen die Klickraten massiv reduziert. Die langfristigen Auswirkungen auf den #Journalismus bezeichnen die Autoren als "likely to be profound" (S. 10). Auf die Quellen bei #ChatGPT klicken offenbar auch nur die wenigsten: nur 0,02 % des Traffics auf Webseiten kommt von dort, 500x weniger als durch die G**glesuche.

Herausfordernde Zeiten für den Journalismus...
