HWE kernels also show -generic; the version number tells them apart. 20.04 kernel updates need Ubuntu Pro (ESM). Ubuntu's CVE page still shows some of these as "pending", but the notices have shipped them.
A vulnerability (worse_query) affecting iOS 26.7.1, 27.0.1, and 27.2 allows malicious apps to read local files from other apps, putting seed phrases, private keys, and login credentials at risk across the entire ecosystem. This is an iOS-level issue, not unique to Binance.
Immediate Action Required:
- Delete any apps installed from untrusted sources (such as sideloaded or manually signed IPAs).
- Update iOS and all apps to the latest official versions.
- If you suspect a breach, transfer funds to a new wallet created on a clean device and reset all active login sessions.
Never install unauthorized packages, and keep your software up to date.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Binance recommends updating iOS to the latest versions against worse_query, but researchers describe it as an unpatched 0day and Apple's iOS 27.2.1 notes omit any such fix.

Web3Auth has said the accounts affected are Keplr Wallets. To the best of our knowledge no Haystack accounts have been affected. We will update everyone as we know more.
If you've exported your seed from Haystack, you should rekey those accounts out of an abundance of caution

Web3Auth, which runs the key network behind Haystack Login, has reported a security incident and paused its login service. Until it's back, Haystack Login isn't working.
Wallets connected with Pera, Defly or Lute aren't affected.

magnetALGO has been officially launched on @Myth_Finance! This effort has been delivered as part of our initiative into diversifying our LST strategy as well as increase organic Magnet token purchasing.
How it works:
Beginner) Stake primarily ALGO only in the magnetALGO pool to receive $U back as yield via Algorand Census rewards.
Advanced) Pair uALGO tokens with native $U on TinyMan and (starting December) enter into our TINY farm for EXTRA yield
We hope you join us in our node pool!

Spot when a token's trading looks fake.
If a few wallets, the creator among them, trade back and forth or pull liquidity right before buying, a warning sign shows by its name in the screener and on its page. Click it to see what was found.
Those tokens are kept off Trending.

Ah yup. That was indeed me. No mallace intended. I've been running some agents to do signups + agentic testing on similar platforms. Just halted the harness I was designing around this as it was definitely going off the rails and reaching too far

In many jurisdictions this is a crime. In the US under Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, 18 U.S.C. §1030, in the UK under Computer Misuse Act (CMA) 1990, in Germany Strafgesetzbuch (StGB), and many others.

The Haystack Router now supports @MoonJuiceAlgo First Stage tokens like $MOOJ and $STACKED.
Every swap includes First Stage's tax step, and your quote is already net of the tax.
On hay.app, the tax shows right next to the fee, so you see it before you trade.

An Algorand consensus protocol upgrade is scheduled to go into effect this Thursday at Round 66,684,510.
Make sure you are running algod v5.0.5 so that your node is prepared for this and can continue to participate in consensus.

The sparkyALGO dualSTAKE token has been sunset due to lack of stake.
It has remained under the 30K ALGO staking threshold for 44 days. Holders are advised to redeem their dualSTAKE tokens.

Hello Algofam! I'm happy to finally present leakswap.com and zebgen.com for public beta testing (using TestNet/StageNet).
LeakSwap is my #Algorand - #Monero cross-chain swaps protocol. Thanks to Algorand's ~2.7s block time and instant finality I believe it to be the fastest non-custodial swap protocol out there. (For now it's only ALGO<->XMR but I have plans for other pairs as well!)
I recorded a video presentation I'm attaching here. I apologize for the background noise and subpar audio but I've been stuck away from home.
Importantly: the full demo is at 19:00 - 30:00. I simulate a full swap between 2 parties ("Ali" and "Xin"), which is also what I'd like the community to try out.
Please watch the demo, follow along, DIY and make sure to send me any and pieces of feedback that you have! I have links to my telegram group and discord on Leakswap.com.
Thanks to @Urthoo for hosting nodes, the sXMR faucet and explorer. And to @kayabaNerve for helping me years ago figure out how to abuse Algorand's ed25519_verify opcode to leak the private spend key share. (Which inspired the name.)

Go sockets will default to MPTCP if it is supported by the OS, so most Go servers on Ubuntu (among others) will be vulnerable. The race needs time to trigger, but doesn't mean this should be ignored. If you have publicly exposed Go servers:
1) Disable MPTCP now, and
2) Patch when there's a fix from your distro
@Canonical any timeline for the patch?
I spent the last few hours going down the CVE-2026-98432 Critical Linux Kernel Flaw rabbit hole 🕳️ and here are a few thoughts:
- It is legit and scary. Kinda crazy that it's been known for 2 weeks & there is still no patch for popular distros (the Ubuntu fix, for example, is developed but not publicly released, still in testing).
- MPTCP needs to be enabled, and on some unorthodox port. It seems that ISPs globally have started blocking options on 22, 80, 443 and other popular ports (good!).
- If you're running a server with valuable data, disable MPTCP and/or IP options NOW. They are not necessary in 99% of use cases anyways.
- It takes about 50 minutes on average to gain access to a server if all conditions are met. My servers started getting hit today; luckily the script I shared earlier handled the situation and rejected the probes.
Stay safe & enjoy the wild AI psychosis ride we're in.
