The best marketing ideas come from marketers who live it.
That’s what this newsletter delivers.
The Marketing Millennials is a look inside what’s working right now for other marketers. No theory. No fluff. Just real insights and ideas you can actually use—from marketers who’ve been there, done that, and are sharing the playbook.
Every newsletter is written by Daniel Murray, a marketer obsessed with what goes into great marketing. Expect fresh takes, hot topics, and the kind of stuff you’ll want to steal for your next campaign.
Because marketing shouldn’t feel like guesswork. And you shouldn’t have to dig for the good stuff.
In the last four days: the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added a critical Oracle Identity Manager zero-day to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) list, a new Metasploit module targets Fortinet FortiWeb appliances (CVE-2025-64446/CVE-2025-58034) with unauthenticated root-RCE, and cloud-scale DDoS attacks hit new records… highlighting that resilience is now as urgent as patching.
Trend (macro) | Global Likelihood | Direction | Commentary |
|---|---|---|---|
Enterprise application zero-days (Oracle EBS/Identity) | 74% | 🔺 Rising | Oracle added to KEV; attackers targeting business-critical ERP/ID systems. (The Hacker News) |
WAF/Edge appliance exploitation | 68% | 🔺 Rising | Exploit module released for Fortinet WAF zero-days; edge remains weakest link. (Cyber Security News) |
Cloud-scale DDoS/availability attacks | 63% | 🔺 Rising | Surge in terabit-level attacks threatened major services; availability risk climbing. (diesec.com) |
Supply-chain tooling & registry tampering | 57% | ➡ Stable | Earlier peaks in supply chain abuse; still relevant but not spiking. |
Patch-management backlog + segmentation risk | 52% | 🔺 Rising | Multiple high-priority advisories compressed remediation windows further. |
CISA warns of actively exploited Oracle Identity Manager zero-day — The flaw allows unauthenticated remote code execution in Oracle Identity Manager; added to KEV.
Metasploit adds exploit module for Fortinet FortiWeb zero-days — Release of exploit code accelerates risk for WAF/edge appliances.
Google patches Chrome V8 zero-day exploited in the wild — Vulnerability enables heap corruption; browser remains a high-risk target.
Cloud-scale DDoS volumes hit new peaks — Attacks of over 15 Tbps observed; availability and redundancy now top concern.
Threat actors listing Microsoft Office zero-day RCE for sale — Pre-exploit marketplace activity signals elevated risk of new chain attacks.

Ready to level the playing field? Download now to discover the exact frameworks these brands used to compete and win.
Business-critical apps are front-line targets: Oracle EBS/ID flaws show attackers aim high.
Edge appliances = new pivot zones: WAFs and network gear increasingly exploited for lateral movement.
DDoS returning as a strategic tool: Focus shifting from just data theft to disruption.
Browser/office ecosystem still ripe for chain attacks: Pre-exploit listings + zero-days = early warning.
Remediation windows contracting: Overlapping high-priority advisories create scheduling bottlenecks.
Oracle ERP/Identity: Inventory all Oracle Identity Manager/EBS instances; apply the CVE-2025-61757 fix or implement mitigations; isolate these systems if patching will be delayed.
WAF and edge appliances: Update FortiWeb appliances immediately; run exploit detection for known modules; restrict admin consoles to internal management networks.
Browser fleet: Push Chrome Stable to the latest version (addressing CVE-2025-5419); enforce browser update policy on user devices.
Availability planning: Validate DDoS mitigation strategies with your CDN/WAF vendor; simulate fail-over scenarios and ensure cloud redundancy.
Change-control triage: Prioritize zero-day + exploit-confirmed patches first; update patch calendar and defer non-essential changes with documented risk-acceptance.
When exploit modules hit Metasploit and KEV entries drop the same week, the advantage goes to the team that treats deployment priority as a stock indicator.
Patch first. Harden next. Recover always.
