Cisco Nexus 3000 and 9000 Series Switches Health Monitoring Diagnostics Denial of Service Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the health monitoring diagnostics of Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches and Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches in standalone NX-OS mode could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause the device to reload unexpectedly, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is due to the incorrect handling of specific Ethernet frames. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a sustained rate of crafted Ethernet frames to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the device to reload. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are workarounds that address this vulnerability. This advisory is available at the following link: https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-n3kn9k-healthdos-eOqSWK4g This advisory is part of the February 2025 Cisco FXOS and NX-OS Software Security Advisory Bundled Publication. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Event Response: February 2025 Semiannual Cisco FXOS and NX-OS Software Security Advisory Bundled Publication. Security Impact Rating: High CVE: CVE-2025-20111

Is your email or password among the 240+ million compromised by infostealers?

For the second time since the start of 2025, a huge number of login credentials extracted from infostealer logs has been added to the database powering the HaveIBeenPwned (HIBP) site and breach notification service. In January 2025, HIBP’s creator Troy Hunt added 71 million email addresses to the database. This time around, Hunt has loaded 284 million unique email addresses, alongside the websites they were entered into and the passwords used, as well as 244 … More → The post Is your email or password among the 240+ million compromised by infostealers? appeared first on Help Net Security.

Fortanix protects enterprises from AI and quantum computing threats

Fortanix announced new capabilities to its data encryption and key management platform. Even as organizations struggle to manage the rising costs and complexity of data security, advances in AI and quantum computing will render current protections obsolete. Quantum computers will be able to break most widely used public key cryptographic algorithms, putting long-term sensitive data at risk, and recent innovations in the field signal it could happen sooner than expected—customer information, PII, employee records, and … More → The post Fortanix protects enterprises from AI and quantum computing threats appeared first on Help Net Security.

Automatic cell analysis with the help of artificial intelligence

Identifying and delineating cell structures in microscopy images is crucial for understanding the complex processes of life. This task is called ‘segmentation’ and it enables a range of applications, such as analyzing the reaction of cells to drug treatments, or comparing cell structures in different genotypes. It was already possible to carry out automatic segmentation of those biological structures but the dedicated methods only worked in specific conditions and adapting them to new conditions was costly. An international research team has now developed a method by retraining the existing AI-based software Segment Anything on over 17,000 microscopy images with over 2 million structures annotated by hand.
