Critical updates and vulnerabilities? CNCS warns about a new campaign with fraudulent emails - Tek Notícias

▤ Summary

A Portuguese cybersecurity authority is warning about a new phishing campaign that impersonates CNCS and pushes fake critical update emails. The messages try to trick recipients into downloading and running a file that gives attackers remote control of their computers. The alert says CNCS does not use this contact method to request vulnerability fixes and advises recipients to report suspicious messages to CERT.PT or MyCiber. The guidance also stresses checking sender authenticity and watching for urgency, language errors, and download links in emails.
