What happened
SANS ISC diary roundup (early May 2026) covering multiple operational- and security-relevant items: a reported issue of cleartext passwords in Microsoft Edge (investigation needed), SSL.com rotating their root certificate (potential for certificate-related hiccups), release of Wireshark 4.6.5 which fixes 43 vulnerabilities (38 CVEs) and 35 bugs (update strongly recommended), a malicious ad campaign leading to the MacSync stealer via Homebrew (macOS supply-chain/malware risk), and planned updates to the DShield honeypot. Multiple daily ISC Stormcast podcast entries are also listed. Prioritize:
