Introducing the Azure Skills Plugin: Practical Azure Workflows for Coding Agents
The Azure Skills Plugin brings curated Azure expertise and an execution layer together so coding agents can do more than offer generic guidance. Rather than just suggesting commands or linking to documentation, the plugin packages decision logic (skills) and structured tools (MCP servers) so agents can reason about workflows and, when appropriate, run actions against real Azure resources. What the
Zero-Day on the Market: $220K Exploit Targets Windows Remote Desktop Services (CVE-2026-21533)
Remote Desktop Services (RDS) has come under renewed scrutiny after reports that a working exploit for CVE-2026-21533 — an elevation-of-privilege vulnerability in Windows Remote Desktop Services — was listed for sale on a dark web forum for $220,000. The listing and surrounding reporting are factual and straightforward: a recently created account advertised a claimed zero-day exploit, observers recorded the posting,
VoidLink Malware Framework: Key Points on How It Targets Kubernetes and AI Workloads
Title: VoidLink Malware Framework: Key Points on How It Targets Kubernetes and AI Workloads Overview VoidLink is a modular malware framework observed targeting cloud-native environments, with emphasis on Kubernetes clusters and AI infrastructure. Goal: persistence, lateral movement, data exfiltration, and abuse of compute (e.g., model theft, crypto-mining, or training/serving misuse). Modularity enables plugins for container escape, kubeconfig harvesting, and targeted
Enhanced Storage Resiliency with Azure NetApp Files Elastic Zone‑Redundant Service
Data resiliency is a baseline requirement for modern enterprise applications. Short interruptions or data loss can cascade into regulatory, financial, and reputational consequences. Azure NetApp Files (ANF) Elastic zone‑redundant storage (ANF Elastic ZRS) is a managed, multi‑AZ file storage option built on Azure’s ZRS architecture that aims to deliver synchronous multi‑zone replication, automatic failover, and enterprise ONTAP data management features
When Local Trust Breaks: The OpenClaw 0-Click Vulnerability and What Developers Must Do Now
The speed at which developer-facing AI agents have been adopted is staggering — and rapid adoption often outpaces secure design. A recent, high-impact vulnerability in OpenClaw demonstrates how a single innocuous browser visit can be transformed into a full agent takeover. For developers and security teams, this is a reminder that conveniences like “localhost-first” assumptions carry real risk. This post
