🚨 Google says the Salesloft Drift breach is much larger than believed.

All Drift integrations should be treated as compromised.

Revoke, rotate, investigate.

🚨 FBI & Dutch police just shut down VerifTools—a dark web hub selling fake passports & driver’s licenses for as little as $9.

BUT within hours, operators relaunched under a new domain.

Criminals used it to bypass KYC checks & steal millions in crypto.

Here’s what’s next ↓ https://thehackernews.com/2025/08/feds-seize-64m-veriftools-fake-id.html

🚨 FreePBX zero-day under active attack.

Hackers are exploiting a CVSS 10.0 flaw to hijack systems, drop backdoors & potentially gain root access. If your admin panel is exposed online, assume compromise.

🚨 Passwordstate, used by 29,000 orgs worldwide, just patched a critical flaw.

A crafted URL could bypass its emergency access page — exposing credentials.

HyperOS 3 保留了 Android 16 原生的 Linux Terminal 功能，但暂时只有搭载 MediaTek 处理器的设备能使用

Snapdragon 不允许运行未签名的固件，然而小米恰好没给虚拟机签名，看看后面小米会不会处理这个问题

XRING 的 pvmfw 还没开发完呢，整个就不支持 AVF 功能

只有 MediaTek 不做限制，能直接运行不受保护的虚拟机

Another engineering Sample of Exynos 2600 appeared on Geekbench 6

Samsung Exynos 2600 is manufactured by Samsung Foundry on its 2nm process and it may power the Galaxy S26 series.

CPU:
• 1x Cortex- X930 @ 3.8GHz
• 3x Cortex- A730 @ 3.25GHz
• 6x Cortex- A730 @ 2.75GHz

Thus, a deca-core chip of 1+3+6 configuration. The most interesting part is that, all the cores are either medium or high performance cores, thus Exynos 2600 will completely ditch the useless little cores. Link: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/13551451

Geekbench 6.4 scores
Single-core: 3309
Multi-core: 11256

🙏 Finding an XMPP Server: The Easy Way

Read the full article on Substack

If you’ve been following the show you know I recommend XMPP as the only true decentralized messaging protocol.

Why?
- Anyone can run their own server
- XMPP is an open protocol, and most XMPP software is open source
- Registering is simple and free
- XMPP comes with great features such as end to end encrypted messaging, encrypted voice & video calls, file sharing, and more

Because XMPP is decentralized, different servers can choose to implement different features. This means picking the right server is important. This used to be difficult, but now a new effort by a team of XMPP community veterans solves this problem.

https://providers.xmpp.net

The XMPP Providers resource is a collaborative effort to collect and categorize XMPP providers based on their features.
