EU rejects suspending biometric border controls despite 20 ‘difficult spots’

Officials admit new post-Brexit EES system is ‘not perfect’, as airports and airlines voice fears over delays

The EU has rejected calls by airports and airlines to suspend the implementation of new fingerprinting and facial recognition border controls even though it admits there are “20 difficult spots” with queue chaos.

With only a week to go before the peak summer holiday season starts, EU officials admit the new entry/exit system (EES) is “not perfect” but will tell travel industry representatives that a full suspension is “not needed” and “not possible”.

‘An absolute triumph’: first reactions to Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey are ectastic

Following the film’s premiere, critics are already calling the historical epic a best picture Oscar contender. Here’s what they had to say

The Odyssey, Christopher Nolan’s three-hour version of Homer’s epic poem, world premiered in London on Monday night, and critics who saw the film there and at early screenings in the US have been sharing their takes on one of the year’s most hotly anticipated films.

“Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey is a colossal origin-myth story of postwar disillusion and a loss of innocence witnessed by the dead,” wrote the Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw, ahead of the reviews embargo lifting next Wednesday and next Friday’s worldwide release.

Fake IT bods on Microsoft Teams coax workers into installing malware

Cybercriminals are using fake IT support calls on Microsoft Teams to persuade employees to surrender control of their PCs before installing the EtherRAT remote access trojan, according to researchers at Palo Alto Networks' Unit 42. Victims receive a phishing email disguised as an employee survey before a follow-up Microsoft Teams call from someone claiming to be IT support. During the call, the attacker persuades the target to hand over remote control and install legitimate remote administration tools such as HopToDesk or AnyDesk. An MSI package is then downloaded, which installs the EtherRAT malware. "We've seen in the logs of the User's session the Title 'System Administrator (External unfamiliar) | Microsoft Teams'; the External unfamiliar tag indicates a contact from outside the organization with no trusted relationship," Unit 42 threat researcher Brian Janower wrote. "Microsoft Teams audit logs confirm the actor initiated a cross tenant OneOnOne chat from the attacker controlled account." EtherRAT is a Node.js RAT that runs across Windows, Linux, and macOS, giving attackers the usual menu of post-compromise tricks: running commands, stealing data, manipulating files, and maintaining access. Instead of hardcoding where it phones home, the malware fetches an active command-and-control server from an Ethereum smart contract, with a conventional domain kept in reserve if that doesn't work. The RAT has previously been linked to attacks exploiting the React2Shell vulnerability and has since appeared in campaigns involving multiple threat groups. Unit 42's research also highlights a potentially useful forensic artifact from this latest campaign. According to Janower, Teams creates files beginning "CtrlVirtualCursorWin_*" during remote control sessions, giving defenders another indicator that an attacker was actively operating a victim's desktop. Researchers also found what appears to be an open directory containing EtherRAT versions 1 through 9. With samples updated as recently as June 26, the repository suggests the operators are continuing to develop the malware. The campaign is the latest example of attackers turning Microsoft's collaboration platform against its users. Last month, researchers found DragonForce operators disguising command-and-control traffic as legitimate Teams communications after compromising a victim's network. In this case, Teams is abused much earlier in the intrusion, with attackers simply using fake IT support calls to persuade employees to open the door themselves. ®
