Security researchers have exposed a digitally signed adware campaign that silently disables antivirus protections by deploying SYSTEM-privileged payloads via an MSI/PowerShell updater built with Advanced Installer. In a single day, about 23,500 hosts in 124 countries were infected, including networks in academia, government, utilities, and healthcare, with the operator Dragon Boss Solutions LLC. The campaign uses PUPs branded as browsers, downloads an MSI disguised as a GIF, and runs ClockRemoval.ps1 to disable security products and block updates, raising the risk of more dangerous payloads; admins are urged to hunt for specific artifacts (MbRemoval/MbSetup, WMI subscriptions, and suspicious hosts-file changes) and to monitor unregistered update domains.

Microsoft awarded $2.3 million to security researchers after nearly 700 submissions to this year’s Zero Day Quest, with more than 80 high‑impact cloud and AI flaws uncovered during a live Redmond event. Researchers from 20+ countries tested in authorized environments, identifying paths such as credential exposure, SSRF chains, and cross‑tenant access; the contest is part of the Secure Future Initiative and continues to expand its $5 million prize pool aimed at strengthening cloud and AI security.

Microsoft has confirmed that the April 2026 security update (KB5082063) can trigger BitLocker recovery prompts on some Windows Server 2025 devices after restart. The issue affects a narrow set of enterprise configurations involving BitLocker on the OS drive, a PCR7-based TPM validation policy, and certain Secure Boot states, and is unlikely to impact typical consumer devices. Workarounds include removing the PCR7 Group Policy before updating or applying a Known Issue Rollback; Microsoft is developing a fix.

Microsoft has fixed the bug that caused Windows Server 2019 and 2022 systems to unexpectedly upgrade to Windows Server 2025. The issue, tied to third‑party update tools and a Windows Update banner, was first acknowledged in September 2024; Microsoft says the upgrade offer is now re-enabled in Windows Update Settings for in‑place upgrades. The article also notes recent out‑of‑band updates addressing other Windows issues.
