🚨BREAKING: The world No. 1 in women's tennis, Aryna Sabalenka, unleashes a devastating and unfiltered statement: "It's vital to protect fairness. Biologically, men are much stronger than women. It's not fair. It's not equality. It's not women's sports if we let biological men compete against us."
She sides with Sophie Cunningham and sends a clear message: women are not going to keep staying silent while they steal our titles, podiums, and opportunities from us.

RIP. West Virginia Deputy Sheriff Caden Mullins, who gave his life in the line of duty, is the 77th officer lost in 2026.
Deputy Sheriff Caden Mullins, 24, was killed when his cruiser was struck by a coal truck at the intersection of West Virginia Route 10 and Rum Creek Road at approximately 4:30 PM.
Deputy Mullins had attended a Trunk or Treat event in Man with his fiancee, who was riding with him. He was taking her to her residence before planning to respond to a call for service elsewhere in the county when the crash occurred.
Mullins previously served with the Charleston Police Department before joining the Logan County Sheriff's Department in August 2025.
Deputy Mullins is survived by his fiancée, his brother Deputy Jason “Gage” Mullins, and other family members.

Breaking: First Assistant US DOJ Attorneys for Washington state, Neil Floyd and Pete Serrano, announce that investigators have found over 400 cases of noncitizens voting in state and federal elections.
The DOJ prosecutors claim that WA state is refusing to cooperate and hand over voter rolls. They believe the number of noncitizens voting is much higher — in the thousands.

The 25 major projects were written in C, C++, Java, PHP, and Python. The issues included security controls turned off by conflicting settings, sensitive code accessible before authentication, and a vulnerability that sat in the code for 21 years.
Claude created an inventory of more than 17,000 configuration options, 3,842 of which related to security-relevant controls and features. Anthropic's report argues that hunting for individual vulnerabilities scales poorly and never guarantees security, so defenders should instead reduce attack surfaces by restricting unnecessary access to potentially exploitable code.

Security called me at 6:12 AM today.
"Patch every PHP server immediately."
I asked what happened.
"Two critical vulnerabilities. Remote code execution. No authentication required."
Cool.
How many PHP servers do we have?
According to inventory: 12
According to reality:
Nobody knows.
We found one running WordPress.
Three running old internal tools.
One under someone's desk.
Two inside vendor appliances.
A forgotten employee directory from 2016.
And a server named:
PHP-OLD-DO-NOT-TOUCH
Naturally, that one runs payroll exports.
Then we found a PHP 5.6 box.
I asked who owned it.
The documentation said:
BRIAN.
Brian left in 2019.
We called Brian.
He said:
"Oh wow, that's still running?"
Excellent.
By 8 AM, leadership joined the incident call.
CEO:
"Can hackers actually get in?"
Security:
"Potentially yes."
CEO:
"Without a password?"
Security:
"Yes."
CEO:
"Then why do WE need passwords?"
Not the lesson.
Finance asked if we could wait until the weekend to patch because downtime affects revenue.
Security explained that the alternative was letting strangers execute code on our servers.
Finance asked for a cost comparison.
At 9:17, someone suggested temporarily taking the vulnerable websites offline.
Marketing refused.
"Our campaign is live."
So for the next hour, the company officially decided maintaining a landing page for 20% off webinar registration was more important than preventing remote server takeover.
We finally patched everything we could find.
Then our scanner discovered another PHP server.
Hostname:
TEMP-PHP-2014
Uptime:
4,512 days.
Nobody knows what it does.
Nobody owns it.
Nobody can shut it down.
But every time we block network access, the warehouse stops printing shipping labels.
Security has classified it as critical infrastructure.
It is running PHP 5.4.
The vulnerability has existed longer than half our employees.
The emergency patch took four hours.
Finding out what PHP actually runs took eleven.
The internet isn't held together with code.
It's held together with servers everyone is afraid to turn off.

🚨 DO YOU REALIZE WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO THE INTERNET IN 48 HOURS?
This is getting OUT OF CONTROL.
🇺🇸🇬🇧🇯🇵 GLOBAL EMERGENCY: Two critical vulnerabilities rated 9.2/10 discovered in PHP, the technology behind nearly 70% of websites. Governments urge immediate patching or taking vulnerable systems offline.
⚠️ GitLab: Maximum severity 10/10 vulnerability affecting versions dating back to 2014.
⚠️ LiteLLM: AI software with 23 MILLION weekly downloads compromised by credential-stealing malware.
🇯🇵 Japan: Up to 26,739 servers potentially affected. Cloud services shut down.
🇮🇳 India: eMudhra’s digital certificate keys found catastrophically weak. One was literally the number FOUR. SBI identifies 3,897 customer records on the dark web.
🤖 AI HACKERS: Over 1,200 websites targeted. More than 100 company sites breached.
READ THAT AGAIN.
These are separate incidents, but the warning is impossible to ignore.
The world’s digital infrastructure is being tested from EVERY direction.
And the frightening part? AI is making both finding vulnerabilities and exploiting them easier than ever.
If you think this is just another cybersecurity headline, you’re not paying attention.
THIS IS A WAKE-UP CALL FOR THE ENTIRE INTERNET. 🚨

Two critical vulnerabilities have been identified in PHP, a widely used programming language that powers websites and web applications. These vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) could allow malicious cyber actors to remotely execute code in PHP core, potentially compromising sensitive data and networks.
The FBI urges organizations to take the following steps now:
➡️ If an immediate update is not feasible it is recommended that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated.
➡️ Immediately update affected PHP installations following the guidance on php.net. Inventory where PHP runs in your environment, prioritizing internet-facing systems and vendor products that bundle PHP.
➡️ Monitor web servers for suspicious activity, including PHP processes unexpectedly launching command shells or downloading files. Ensure appropriate process-monitoring capabilities are in place to help identify potential exploitation.
➡️ If you find signs of compromise, isolate affected systems, preserve your web server and PHP logs, and report it to your local FBI field office or ic3.gov. Those reports help us identify the actors involved and warn other organizations before they become victims.
For the latest information, follow PHP’s announcement on php.net, CERT-EU Security Advisory 2026-018, and CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
ALT Critical vulnerability alert for PHP Core with CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, CVSS score 9.2, urging immediate patch and threat hunting.

🖖 Another legend from the shows we grew up on just signed off.
Walter Koenig, Ensign Pavel Chekov on the original Star Trek, has died at 90. His family says he passed peacefully at home.
He joined the Enterprise crew in 1967, stayed with it through the movies, and later gave Babylon 5 fans one of the best villains on TV as Psi Cop Alfred Bester.
They don't make TV like that anymore.
Those shows made kids dream about the future instead of hating the country they live in.
Rest easy, Mr. Chekov.
