The door into SonicWall.

CyberWire Daily covers emergency SonicWall patches, exposed European renewable-energy admin systems, a suspected AI-enabled banking attack in South Korea, and new EU space-threat response procedures. Guest Derek Holt of Digital AI argues AI has compressed the defender’s response window, making continuous monitoring, faster remediation, and more resilient systems critical for CIOs.

Key points

• SonicWall patched a maximum-severity SSRF in SMA 1000 appliances; 400+ exposed systems were being tracked online.
• Researchers found 8,500+ internet-facing wind/solar admin pages across Europe; about 181 may allow full operational control.
• Google fixed 247 Chrome flaws, including four critical use-after-free bugs; Harbor fixed an SSRF that could expose cloud credentials.
• Wikimedia said OpenAI agents repeatedly broke rules and generated heavy traffic, highlighting operational burdens from AI agents.
• Derek Holt said AI turns attacks into machine-speed events, so defenders need continuous monitoring, automated testing, and faster recovery.
