What happened
Security-focused feed containing reports on critical unauthenticated PHP remote-code-execution vulnerabilities, eight eMudhra TLS certificates compromised by extremely weak private keys, a possible Cellebrite iPhone radio zero-day, hidden capabilities in AI models, potentially biased insecure code generation by Qwen3-Coder, fraudulent North Korean IT workers, and spyware/bloatware in aftermarket automotive head units. The most immediately actionable items are patching affected PHP deployments and revoking/reissuing compromised certificates.
