So where do we go now? The researchers said that both the RTX 3060 and RTX 6000 cards are vulnerable. Changing BIOS defaults to enable IOMMU closes the vulnerability, they said. Short for input-output memory management unit, IOMMU maps device-visible virtual addresses to physical addresses on the host memory. It can be used to make… Read More »
The move, recently proposed by influential researcher Scott Aaronson, is a complete turnaround from the strict 90-day disclosure policies Google’s Project Zero pioneered two decades ago and an accepted norm that has driven security research for even longer. Other researchers are already criticizing the lack of details. “I think it’s alarmist to claim an immediate… Read More »
Google is dramatically shortening its readiness deadline for the arrival of Q Day, the point at which existing quantum computers can break public-key cryptography algorithms that secure decades’ worth of secrets belonging to militaries, banks, governments, and nearly every individual on earth. In a post published on Wednesday, Google said it is giving itself until… Read More »
In an email, Aikido researcher Charlie Eriksen said the canister was taken down Sunday night and is no longer available. “It wasn’t as reliable/untouchable as they expected,” Eriksen wrote. “But for a while, it would have wiped systems if infected.” Like previous TeamPCP malware, CanisterWorm, as Aikido has named the malware, targets organizations’ CI/CD pipelines… Read More »

Trivy maintainer Itay Shakury confirmed the compromise on Friday, following rumors and a thread, since deleted by the attackers, discussing the incident.… Read More »
“In January 2026 Broadcom signaled the termination of its VMware Cloud Service Provider program in Europe,” CIPSE said in a statement. This unilateral decision removed all but a tiny minority of hand-selected partners and excluded most European CSPs from selling VMware products.” In its complaint, CISPE also accused Broadcom of “ongoing abuse,” citing sharp price… Read More »
The problem is that agencies often lack the staff and resources to do thorough reviews, which means the whole system is leaning on the claims of the cloud companies and the assessments of the third-party firms they pay to evaluate them. Under the current vision, critics say, FedRAMP has lost the plot. “FedRAMP’s job is… Read More »
Researchers are warning about the risks posed by a low-cost device that can give insiders and hackers unusually broad powers in compromising networks. The devices, which typically sell for $30 to $100, are known as IP KVMs. Administrators often use them to remotely access machines on networks. The devices, not much bigger than a deck… Read More »
The invisible code is rendered with Public Use Areas (sometimes called Public Use Access), which are ranges in the Unicode specification for special characters reserved for private use in defining emojis, flags, and other symbols. The code points represent every letter of the US alphabet when fed to computers, but their output is completely invisible… Read More »
What else is known about Handala Hack? The group has existed since at least 2023. It takes its name from a character in the political cartoons of Palestinian artist Naji al-Ali. The group’s logo depicts a small Palestinian boy who is a symbol associated with Palestinian resistance. Check Point and other security firms have said… Read More »
