ISC Stormcast – November 6th, 2025: Cyber Chaos Served Fresh

Right, so apparently the internet is still on fire — surprise, surprise! The fine folks at ISC are waving their warning flags again, this time it’s about all the freshly baked security fiascos for November 6th, 2025. There’s chatter about new vulnerabilities, threat actors doing their usual dance of digital idiocy, and some poor bastards forgetting to patch — again — because why the hell would you fix the holes when you can just let the ransomware waltz in, right?

Top of the circus, we’ve got the usual flood of suspicious network activity, sketchy phishing campaigns, and other nonsense that should’ve died out with Windows XP. Oh, and let’s not forget everyone’s favorite pastime — cyber hygiene! Which, apparently, is still as rare as a competent vendor tech support agent. The ISC diary reminds everyone to stay alert, monitor logs, and for the love of all that’s digital, patch your bloody systems.

The day’s message? The internet is a festering pit of stupid, and if you’re not paying attention, you’re next in line for a data breach and a PR nightmare.

Reminds me of the time I told a sysadmin to patch their firewall, and they said they were waiting for “management approval.” Three days later, that firewall was sending more outbound traffic than a crypto miner on payday. Some people deserve their outages.
