We often don’t find out the real details of a scam, and how one ‘like’ can turn into a nightmare that controls someone’s life for many years. This is that story.

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new ransomware strain dubbed HybridPetya that resembles the notorious Petya/NotPetya malware, while also incorporating the ability to bypass the Secure Boot mechanism in Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) systems using a now-patched vulnerability disclosed earlier this year. Slovakian cybersecurity company ESET said the samples were uploaded

A security weakness has been disclosed in the artificial intelligence (AI)-powered code editor Cursor that could trigger code execution when a maliciously crafted repository is opened using the program. The issue stems from the fact that an out-of-the-box security setting is disabled by default, opening the door for attackers to run arbitrary code on users' computers with their privileges. "

From communal effort to legal mandateThe world runs on open source. From the applications you use daily to the critical infrastructure powering our society, open source software is ubiquitous. However, this widespread adoption has brought with it an escalating need for robust security, a reality starkly highlighted by incidents like SolarWinds and the more recent XZ Utils vulnerability. While the open source community often demonstrates remarkable resilience and collaboration in addressing threats, a significant shift in responsibility is now underway, driven in part by legislation, such as th

## Summary When Axios runs on Node.js and is given a URL with the `data:` scheme, it does not perform HTTP. Instead, its Node http adapter decodes the entire payload into memory (`Buffer`/`Blob`) and returns a synthetic 200 response. This path ignores `maxContentLength` / `maxBodyLength` (which only protect HTTP responses), so an attacker can supply a very large `data:` URI and cause the process to allocate unbounded memory and crash (DoS), even if the caller requested `responseType: 'stream'`. ## Details The Node adapter (`lib/adapters/http.js`) supports the `data:` scheme. When `axios` encounters a request whose URL starts with `data:`, it does not perform an HTTP request. Instead, it calls `fromDataURI()` to decode the Base64 payload into a Buffer or Blob.
