The new CEO of the Wikimedia Foundation worked at J.P. Morgan and Lehman Brothers. The Foundation has now fired a longtime lead developer and disbanded the team whose job was to listen to volunteers.

Finally... they've been yapping about this for ages now
PRESS RELEASE
Today, our engineering team announced a streamlined editorial workflow powered by the Unix tool sed, enabling instant, consistent replacement of the symbol & with the word “and” across all communications. This improvement strengthens clarity, supports accessibility, and ensures brand‑wide linguistic consistency. By integrating sed into our publishing pipeline, we reaffirm our commitment to precision, efficiency, and high‑quality content delivery.
While everyone was on Holiday we scanned a few thousand hosts for #BadHost (CVE-2026-48710): zero auth required and we found clinical trial databases, email mailboxes, MCP server for SSH industrial IoT via bastion servers, and live PII APIs wide open. The FastAPI/MCP ecosystem is sitting exposed - patch to Starlette 1.0.1 now and check your exposure at https://badhost.org
We paired time travel debugging with an #AI agent on a noisy 7B-instruction ARM64 Android trace.
In ~10 minutes, it traced the MTProto v2 decryption chain down to AES-IGE and correctly described the execution flow.

Micropatches released for Windows Shell Link Processing Spoofing Vulnerability (CVE-2026-25185)
https://blog.0patch.com/2026/05/micropatches-released-for-windows-shell.html
Fuzzing finds bugs in Rust code - reliably so. But async Rust has largely stayed out of reach with its complexity making it hard for fuzzers to explore meaningfully.
At Oxidize 2026, Morgan Hill (@pcwizz) walks through what it takes to actually fuzz async Rust: the naive approaches that don't work, and an involved technique that does - involving LibAFL, user mode QEMU, and a fair amount of head scratching.
