Allow arbitrary URLs, expect arbitrary code execution

We found and reported 1-click code execution vulnerabilities in popular software including Telegram, Nextcloud, VLC, Libre-/OpenOffice, Bitcoin/Dogecoin Wallets, Wireshark and Mumble

Desktop applications which pass user supplied URLs to be opened by the operating system are frequently vulnerable to code execution with user interaction

Code execution can be achieved either when a URL pointing to a malicious executable (.desktop, .jar, .exe, …) hosted on an internet accessible file share (nfs, webdav, smb, …) is opened, or an additional vulnerability in the opened application’s URI handler is exploited

Vulnerabilities following this pattern have already been found in other software, with more expected to be revealed going forward

Nextdoor launches anti-racism notification to prevent discriminatory language

Nextdoor is introducing a new anti-racism notification, which asks users to reconsider posting content if the app thinks it may be offensive. As with its previous Kindness Reminder, if a user tries to post something with words or phrases Nextdoor thinks may be objectionable, it will give them the option to edit the post before it actually goes live. The users can, however, ignore the warning and post it anyway.

European MPs targeted by deepfake video calls imitating Russian opposition

Politicians from the UK, Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania tricked by fake meetings with opposition figures

A series of senior European MPs have been approached in recent days by individuals who appear to be using deepfake filters to imitate Russian opposition figures during video calls.

Those tricked include Rihards Kols, who chairs the foreign affairs committee of Latvia’s parliament, as well as MPs from Estonia and Lithuania. Tom Tugendhat, the chair of the UK foreign affairs select committee, has also said he was targeted.

“Putin’s Kremlin is so weak and frightened of the strength of @navalny they’re conducting fake meetings to discredit the Navalny team,” Tugendhat posted in a tweet, referring to the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. “They got through to me today. They won’t broadcast the bits where I call Putin a murderer and thief, so I’ll put it here.”

Kols uploaded a photograph of Leonid Volkov, an ally of Navalny, and a screenshot of his doppelganger taken from the video call. Volkov said the two looked virtually identical. “Looks like my real face – but how did they manage to put it on the Zoom call? Welcome to the deepfake era …” he wrote.

The Shameless EXTORTION in Mobile Gaming

The mobile gaming industry has long been dominated by scams, false advertising, and shady business practices but today we can add extortion to the list, because 37GAMES, a world renowned developer with top 100 properties on the app-store, has decided to extort their low paying users (not their whales) for large amounts of cash.

In the world of exploit or "glitch" punishment by gaming developers, this might be the worst response I have ever seen.

I’m now in charge of Audacity. Seriously.

Audacity is the world’s most widely used audio editing & recording software. It is free and open source and maintained by an amazing community. In this video, I’m announcing my own involvement in the project, which I’m very excited about. For those worried about MuseScore (an open source notation & music app that I also lead): don’t be. I’m not going anywhere!
