## ⚡ Weekly Recap: NetScaler and FortiMail 0-Days, AI Coding Leaks, Spectre v2 and Ransomware Arrests
A blank field. A public repo. One reply to an email. A box left exposed. None of this sounds dramatic, which is partly the problem. This week’s threats keep finding leverage in small things that were easy to overlook.
There are actively exploited bugs in the mix, cleaner intrusion paths, smarter automation, and a long patch list waiting behind them. Some attacks are getting more capable. Others are still getting in because the basics gave way first.
Here’s what mattered this week.
