Wow, the #openssh #scp and and #rcp #commands appear to be getting super #secure with #quantumn #secure #algorithms https://hackaday.com/2022/04/15/this-wee.. Impressive stuff! It seems like these days the #hackers find more #vulnerabilities quicker than we can #fix them!

Great for #users of the #platform - and lucky the #accounts were not #wiped entirely!So #weth #wormhole just got #hacked for approximately one third of their #liquidity https://blockworks.co/in-second-largest-.. Apparently it was achieved by waiting for a #security #commit and then quickly #exploiting it before the #servers were #updated https://twitter.com/kelvinfichter/status.. https://twitter.com/samczsun/status/1489.. *Stop #investing into random #crypto #coins - a single #bug is your end!*
Looks like these #qr #codes everybody have been using are #vulnerable to #string #manipulation - pointing people to different #url #locations https://www.androidpolice.com/google-cam.. Apparently #hackers are already using this #vulnerability and the general #trusting nature of people to point them towards #phishing #domains https://www.pcmag.com/news/fbi-hackers-a..
Apparently " #hackers " are #stealing #encrypted #data in #preparation for #quantum #computing https://www.technologyreview.com/2021/11.. We'll see how this goes in the future...
There is a #reserved #respect for #hardware #hackers and the #debugging #process they go through on the #regular in order to find new #attack #vectors https://twitter.com/SecurityJon/status/1.. #security really is quite tough!
Another set of #opensource #hardware #lowtech #ar #goggles https://hackaday.com/2021/09/02/a-microc.. I want a #devkit ! Get them in the hands of #hackers to write #software for!
The largest #attackvector for any #company is a #disgruntled / #retired #employee looking to #cashout https://krebsonsecurity.com/2021/08/want.. Apparently #hackers are now asking high-level #employees to give them #backdoors into Company #infrastructure ... Definitely not worth it!
#naomiwu has done a review of the new #notebook A1 by #banggood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u7lZQQZ.. Very interesting device that nobody really saw coming: https://www.banggood.com/custlink/GmvRgm.. I am a massive fan of the #formfactor of the #laptop - I was really bummed out when the #notebook and #netbook originally died, then got rebooted as a #chromebook ... This machine appears to be aimed at #hackers and #engineers which is pretty cool!
A new #microsoft #linkedin #dataleak by #hackers https://restoreprivacy.com/linkedin-data.. Microsoft's #security is an absolute shit show. *They need to be fined for this.* This information *will* cost people their jobs, marriages, relationships with colleagues, etc. There is a very real cost to their lapse attitude to security.
A very big ouch for #westerndigital - they commented out #code that checked the #authentication and this was in turn abused by #hackers to perform the mass wiping attack! https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/06/.. This is why we should all hate #php anyway - it is insanely easy for something like this to happen.
Huh, some #hackers are looking to release the #process for creating #insulin - removing the power from #bigpharma https://www.freethink.com/shows/just-mig.. Apparently the price of Insulin - literally absolutely life saving for #diabetics - is increasing to the point where people in the #us are having to ration it. Apparently it can be made 98% cheaper in the future.
Huh, it seems like some #hackers were paid to write #malware #tojan that specifically prevents people from downloading #torrents https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/06/.. This takes real skill, I suspect this actually has some very serious backing.
The #microcontroller now running the #pipico is now available for purchase to #hackers https://hackaday.com/2021/06/01/new-part.. Great timing, especially given that there is so little chips available right now.
