AWS CDK Risk: Exploiting a Missing S3 Bucket Allowed Account Takeover
In June 2024, we uncovered a security issue related to the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), an open-source project.

perfctl: A Stealthy Malware Targeting Millions of Linux Servers
In this blog post, Aqua Nautilus researchers aim to shed light on a Linux malware that, over the past 3-4 years, has actively sought more than 20,000 types of misconfigurations in order to target and exploit Linux servers. If you have a Linux server connected to the internet, you could be at risk. In fact, given the scale, we strongly believe the attackers targeted millions worldwide with a potential number of victims of thousands, it appears that with this malware any Linux server could be at risk.
