French video game company Ubisoft on Friday confirmed it was a victim of a “cyber security incident,” causing temporary disruptions to its games, systems, and services.

The Montreuil-headquartered firm said that an investigation into the breach was underway and that it has initiated a company-wide password reset as a precautionary measure.

“Also, we can confirm that all our games and services are functioning normally and that at this time there is no evidence any player personal information was accessed or exposed as a by-product of this incident,” the company said in a statement.

It’s at least the third strain of wiper since the conflict began.

Researchers from cybersecurity firm ESET have discovered a new destructive wiper malware, dubbed CaddyWiper, that is affecting computer networks in Ukraine.

There have been some other high profile hacks recently.

Ubisoft says it experienced a “cyber security incident” last week that temporarily disrupted some games, systems, and services. The company does not believe player personal information was exposed. An entity seemingly representing the hacking group LAPSUS$ is taking responsibility.

MercadoLibre, one of the most important e-commerce companies in Latin America, confirmed unauthorized access to a part of its source code, in addition to confirming that the attackers managed to access the personal records of some 300,000 users. The company has not confirmed that its IT infrastructure was affected during the incident.

The Argentine firm confirmed the compromise of its systems after hackers from the Latin American group Lapsus$ threatened to expose confidential information from MercadoLibre and other e-commerce platforms. Faced with this threat, MercadoLibre enabled all its security and containment protocols, so it recommended that users of the platform change their passwords and monitor their account statements to prevent any attempt at malicious activity.

MercadoLibre has established itself as the largest e-commerce and payment processing ecosystem in Latin America. It currently has more than 140 million active buyers and sellers in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela.

A report by cybersecurity firm Binarly points to the detection of 16 critical vulnerabilities in various implementations of Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI), present in multiple HP enterprise devices. According to the researchers, threat actors can exploit these flaws to implant firmware capable of evading UEFI Secure Boot, Intel Boot Guard, and virtualization-based security measures.

Cybersecurity specialists reported the detection of multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Security QRadar SOAR. According to the report, successful exploitation of these flaws would allow the deployment of severe attack scenarios.

Below are brief descriptions of the reported flaws, in addition to their tracking keys and scorings assigned according to the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS).
