I just realised that I'm starting to get the Barrowman accent.

Les vers luisants, mon sujet du soir en ce moment !

Youch. Alarum Technologies (NASDAQ: ALAR) had one of its best trading days of the year on June 15, right after the company announced to investors that revenue had increased 64 percent. The stock has been on a downward trajectory ever since. On June 18, we ran a story that cited research from 3 different security firms linking Alarum and its widely-resold NetNut residential proxy service to a 4 year-old botnet called Popa, which was often installed on user devices without consent.

Since late last week, when the FBI and industry partners seized NetNut's website and hundreds of domains used to control the Popa botnet, Alarum's stock price has been in a freefall, currently hovering at less than a third of its June 15 high. The stock has fallen again in trading today, likely because the FBI just seized Alarum's domain name as well.

🚨 Critical Gitea flaw CVE-2026-20896 is being probed in the wild

Researchers warn that attackers are targeting a critical Gitea Docker image flaw that can allow authentication bypass with a single HTTP header.

The issue affects official Gitea Docker images up to 1.26.2 when reverse-proxy authentication is enabled.

The vulnerable default trusted any source IP as a reverse proxy, meaning an attacker who could reach the container’s HTTP port could spoof X-WEBAUTH-USER and impersonate a known or guessable user.

Gitea patched the issue in 1.26.3 / 1.26.4, and a public PoC/checker is now available.

Sysdig says the first in-the-wild probing was seen 13 days after disclosure.

Observed IP: 159[.]26[.]98[.]241

Also, what a lot of "I have nothing to hide" people miss is that stuff-that-needs-to-be-hidden depends on social and political climate at any given moment and changes with time.

Being pregnant while crossing the US border used to be a non-issue, nothing-to-hide type thing. Now US fascist lawmakers are pushing for pregnancy tests at the border.

This is just a very fresh example, there are endless others.

Once our data is out, we have no control over it. Will it be dangerous in 5-10 years? 👀
