Google patches 6 serious Chrome bugs

Google patches 6 serious Chrome bugs

Mar 25, 2011
Google on Thursday patched six vulnerabilities in Chrome, and as usual, silently updated users' copies of the browser. The update to Chrome 10.0.648.204 also included two more blacklisted SSL certificates that may be related to last week's theft of nine digital certificates from a Comodo reseller. All six bugs were rated "high," Google's second-most-serious ranking in its threat scoring system. Of the half-dozen bugs, two were "use after free" flaws -- a type of memory management bug that can be exploited to inject attack code -- while a second pair were pegged by Google as "stale pointer" vulnerabilities, another kind of memory allocation flaw. As is Google's practice, the company locked down its bug-tracking database, blocking access to the technical details of the patched vulnerabilities. Google usually unlocks the bug entries several weeks, sometimes months later, to give users time to update before the information goes public. G...

Securing Agentic AI: How to Protect the Invisible Identity Access

Securing Agentic AI: How to Protect the Invisible Identity Access

Jul 15, 2025Automation / Risk Management
AI agents promise to automate everything from financial reconciliations to incident response. Yet every time an AI agent spins up a workflow, it has to authenticate somewhere; often with a high-privilege API key, OAuth token, or service account that defenders can't easily see. These "invisible" non-human identities (NHIs) now outnumber human accounts in most cloud environments, and they have become one of the ripest targets for attackers. Astrix's Field CTO Jonathan Sander put it bluntly in a recent Hacker News webinar : "One dangerous habit we've had for a long time is trusting application logic to act as the guardrails. That doesn't work when your AI agent is powered by LLMs that don't stop and think when they're about to do something wrong. They just do it." Why AI Agents Redefine Identity Risk Autonomy changes everything: An AI agent can chain multiple API calls and modify data without a human in the loop. If the underlying credential is exposed or overprivileged, each addit...

Iran Hackers targets Gmail and Skype with fake SSL hack !

Iran Hackers targets Gmail and Skype with fake SSL hack !

Mar 24, 2011
Iran has tricked a web firm into issuing fake security certificates for Gmail, Skype, Hotmail and more. Comodo Group, a US-based certificate authority firm with 15% of the market, admitted that one of its affiliate's accounts in Southern Europe had been hacked, letting the attackers create fake SSL security certificates for six websites. Such digital keys let websites offer secure services, and fake versions could be used to spoof sites, gather login details and watch user activity. The fake certificates target Microsoft's Live platform, Gmail and Google, Skype, Yahoo, and Mozilla Firefox extensions. The attack was quickly discovered, with the attacker still using the account when it was shut down. Comodo's CEO Melih Abdulhayogl said the attack appeared to originate in Iran, as it would have required access to the country's DNS infrastructure. "We believe these are politically motivated, state-driven/funded attacks," he said in a blog post, adding it wa...
Internal Affairs may be next target for #Anonymous !

Internal Affairs may be next target for #Anonymous !

Mar 24, 2011
There's confusion tonight as to whether international cyber vandals have tried to hack websites run by the Department of Internal Affairs. A group called Anonymous has threatened to attack internal affairs because it operates a filter that identifies child porn websites - which the cyber activists believe is an act of censorship. They use YouTube to threaten - and now it's New Zealand's turn. "On March 28, at approximately 5pm Eastern Standard Time, a series of coordinated anonymous server attacks will be carried out on the New Zealand Department of Internal Affairs website," says their video. March 28 is next Monday, but since Tuesday this week the Internal Affairs website has been frequently off line, and the Civil Defence website has had to move to a temporary server. But it might not be an Anonymous attack. "Usually when they take a site down they will leave a message up saying 'we've done this' and why and how long it will go on for," says Technology Writer Dylan ...
