Twitter’s Clumsy Pivot to X.com Is a Gift to Phishers

On April 9, Twitter/X began automatically modifying links that mention "twitter.com" to redirect to "x.com" instead. But over the past 48 hours, dozens of new domain names have been registered that demonstrate how this change could be used to craft convincing phishing links -- such as fedetwitter[.]com, which is currently rendered as fedex.com in tweets.

GHSA-cgqf-3cq5-wvcj: Apollo Router's Compressed Payloads do not respect HTTP Payload Limits

### Impact The Apollo Router is a configurable, high-performance graph router written in Rust to run a federated supergraph that uses Apollo Federation. Affected versions are subject to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) type vulnerability. When receiving compressed HTTP payloads, affected versions of the Router evaluate the `limits.http_max_request_bytes` configuration option after the entirety of the compressed payload is decompressed. If affected versions of the Router receive highly compressed payloads, this could result in significant memory consumption while the compressed payload is expanded. ### Patches Router version 1.40.2 has a fix for the vulnerability. ### Workarounds If you are unable to upgrade, you may be able to implement mitigations at proxies or load balancers positioned in front of your Router fleet (e.g. Nginx, HAProxy, or cloud-native WAF services) by creating limits on HTTP body upload size.

U.S. Internet Leaked Years of Internal, Customer Emails

The Minnesota-based Internet provider U.S. Internet Corp. has a business unit called Securence, which specializes in providing filtered, secure email services to businesses, educational institutions and government agencies worldwide. But until it was notified last week, U.S. Internet was publishing more than a decade's worth of its internal email -- and that of thousands of Securence clients -- in plain text out on the Internet and just a click away for anyone with a Web browser.

Manage smartcards with new p11-kit subcommands

P11-kit is an integral component to enable Hardware Security Module (HSM) and related technologies around PKCS#11. Over the years, its focus had mostly been on the library, with the bundled command-line tools not receiving much attention. When the user wanted to perform operations on the HSM or smartcard, they typically had to use tools from other packages. The most popular ones include p11tool from GnuTLS, modutil from NSS, and pkcs11-tool from OpenSC.With p11-kit 0.25.1 release, the p11-kit command-line tool bundled with p11-kit has been extended with a handful of utilities, to make it possi

GHSA-5h86-8mv2-jq9f: aiohttp is vulnerable to directory traversal

### Summary Improperly configuring static resource resolution in aiohttp when used as a web server can result in the unauthorized reading of arbitrary files on the system. ### Details When using aiohttp as a web server and configuring static routes, it is necessary to specify the root path for static files. Additionally, the option 'follow_symlinks' can be used to determine whether to follow symbolic links outside the static root directory. When 'follow_symlinks' is set to True, there is no validation to check if a given file path is within the root directory.This can lead to directory traversal vulnerabilities, resulting in unauthorized access to arbitrary files on the system, even when symlinks are not present. i.e. An application is only vulnerable with setup code like: ``` app.router.add_routes([ web.static("/static", "static/", follow_symlinks=True), # Remove follow_symlinks to avoid the vulnerability ]) ``` ### Impact This is a directory traversal vulnerability with CWE I...
