Hackers, Typhoons, and Zero Days

Microsoft and Google researchers have caught China-backed hackers red-handed, exploiting a freshly-discovered zero-day flaw (CVE-2025-53770) in Microsoft SharePoint. This bug lets attackers snatch sensitive private keys and snoop through internal files like uninvited dinner guests then plant malware for good measure. At least three hacking groups, with charming names like Linen Typhoon, Violet Typhoon, and Storm-2603, have been wreaking havoc since early July, targeting self-hosted SharePoint servers and beyond. Microsoft has since issued patches, but researchers warn that many servers are likely already compromised. Once again, Beijing remains mum, continuing its tradition of side-stepping blame. If this sounds familiar, it should, it echoes the infamous Hafnium Exchange hacks of 2021. Lesson here? If you’re running SharePoint, patch up fast and maybe stop naming hacking groups after weather patterns.

Kohl’s Becomes the Latest Meme Stock Darling

Kohl’s just got the meme stock treatment, and it was chaotic chic. The struggling retailer’s stock skyrocketed over 30% Tuesday morning, so fast the NYSE hit the brakes with a volatility halt, as retail traders, smelling blood (or opportunity), piled in. Shares more than doubled in premarket trading, climbing from about $10 to over $21 at one point, echoing Opendoor’s wild ride earlier this week. Heavily shorted with a 49% short float, Kohl’s became fresh bait for Reddit’s WallStreetBets crowd, who love nothing more than squeezing the shorts. The company itself is still floundering, sales are down, their former CEO was ousted for an ethical mess, and they’re forecasting further declines this year. But for now? Kohl’s is the belle of the (meme) ball.
