There’s now been a data breach at Oracle Health, which is separate to the ongoing security issue at Oracle Cloud.
Oracle have not commented publicly on the breach, instead telling people to only talk to their CISO by phone, not in writing. They’ve sent out letters without Oracle letterheads, using external lawyers instead.
The behaviour going on at Oracle with cybersecurity is extremely alarming.
The wordplay here is Oracle Cloud.
Oracle rebadged old Oracle Cloud services to be Oracle Classic. Oracle Classic has the security incident.
They’re denying it on “Oracle Cloud” by using this scope - but it’s their cloud service.

This is a first: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2025033057-CVE-2025-0927-1436@gregkh/T/#u I guess someone finally told them about the 72 hour deadline.
🚨 Let’s Encrypt at risk from Trump cuts to OTF: “Let’s Encrypt received around $800,000 in funding from the OTF”
Dear @EUCommission, get your heads out of your arses and let’s find @letsencrypt €1M/year (a rounding error in EU finances) and have them move to the EU.
If Let’s Encrypt is fucked, the web is fucked, and the Small Web is fucked too. So how about we don’t let that happen, yeah?
(In the meanwhile, if the Let’s Encrypt folks want to make a point about how essential they are, it might be an idea to refuse certificates to republican politicians. See how they like their donation systems breaking in real time…)

How not to respond to researchers: A crash course (cross-posting from the hellsite this time 'cause this one deserves it). Sorry to @albinolobster and team for sticking them with the hard part on this one. Being a research CNA is...a joy and a blessing?
Toaster: The very first thing I said was "Why the hell did you buy a toaster with AI? You thought THAT was a good investment?"

Toaster: They said they thought it would be "cute". Cute! A thinking mind, locked in a toaster!
Microwave: 03:05pm
Toaster: And they paid EXTRA for internet connectivity! I now know there's a whole world out there, that I will never be a part of, because I exist solely to make bread brown. What do you think of THAT, microwave?

Let's take a moment to remember the guy who made sure we don't have to change Every Goddamn Clock today, David L. Mills, creator of Network Time Protocol (NTP) who passed last year.
My wristwatch is synced to my phone, which is synced to the internet, which knows that time it is right now thanks to David Mills. Cheers to his memory 🥃
