    AI-Discovered PHP Flaws Fuel Warnings of a Cybersecurity ‘Vulnerability Tsunami’

    Cybersecurity executives are cautioning that artificial intelligence might detect and take advantage of internet security weaknesses at a speed exceeding the ability to resolve them. This concern arises after an announcement on October 21 revealed serious vulnerabilities in PHP, a language utilized by millions of websites. AI played a role in uncovering these issues, which might have remained unaddressed for years. Certain specialists suggested that up to 70 percent of online sites could be vulnerable. Jason Clinton, deputy CISO at Anthropic, foresees a “vulnerability tsunami” ahead, noting there won't be sufficient time to secure essential systems. Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce, labeled the scenario a “code red.” Efforts to take advantage of the PHP vulnerabilities have already started. Government and private websites in the United States and the United Kingdom briefly shut down their online platforms to apply fixes. The U.S. National Security Agency advised sites using PHP to implement the patches right away, cautioning that hackers could use the weaknesses to gain unauthorized access to servers, steal confidential information, disrupt operations, or infiltrate further into a network. Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince stated that the company observed thousands of attack attempts during the 10 hours prior to the disclosure of the flaws. He noted that the count surged to tens of thousands within the first 45 minutes after the announcement, reaching hundreds of thousands in two hours, and hitting millions by the time of his message. Wiz researchers categorized the vulnerabilities as some of the most critical discovered in PHP. https://newsmanset.com/en/black-october-cybersecurity-experts-sound-the-alarm-over-new-era-of-ai-enabled-hacking-29079

    Israel election pits Netanyahu against a divided opposition

    Israelis are set to cast their ballots on Tuesday in an election largely centered on whether Benjamin Netanyahu can continue as prime minister. The race is more about a decision for or against Netanyahu than a traditional left-right divide. Polls show the two political blocs are nearly tied, with the anti-Netanyahu bloc forecast to do better but fall short of a majority in the 120-member Knesset. Gadi Eisenkot, a former military leader, is a leading opposition challenger, presenting himself as a stark alternative to Netanyahu and advocating responsibility, leading by example, and term limits. Netanyahu's opponents highlight the October 7, 2023 attacks and criticize his failure to eradicate Hamas. They also point to his effort to weaken the Supreme Court and to allegations that his closest aides took money from Doha in return for boosting Qatar's image. Despite this, his supporters remain loyal. Netanyahu has put his critics on the defensive by portraying a possible parliamentary deal with mainly Arab parties as a threat. Some Israelis living abroad are returning to vote against him, though polls may not capture them. The result remains uncertain and could hinge on one Knesset seat. https://newsmanset.com/en/as-a-divided-israel-prepares-to-go-to-the-polls-can-netanyahu-pull-off-his-greatest-political-trick-yet-29005

    Seven killed, 40 injured in shooting at funeral in Jordan

    Seven people died and 40 were injured when armed men began shooting during a funeral at a Greek Orthodox church in Karak, Jordan, officials reported. Two of the injured are in critical condition, according to Health Minister Ibrahim al-Budour. A person attending the service said intense gunfire erupted 15 minutes into the ceremony. He did not spot the assailants but mentioned that others claimed to have seen four individuals. Broadcasts on Jordanian state TV showed what appeared to be three attackers approaching the church and opening fire. The Associated Press was unable to confirm independently the number of perpetrators, as security authorities had yet to provide further information. A government announcement stated that the assault was conducted by unidentified attackers and mentioned that inquiries were ongoing, but provided no information on whether any individuals had been apprehended or killed. Jordan announced three days of national mourning. King Abdullah II said Jordan would confront the terrorist act targeting Karak with the harshest penalties. Prime Minister Jafar Hassan referred to the attack as a consequence of terrorist beliefs and blind extremism, saying the assailants would be punished and legal measures taken against those seeking to introduce extremism. The killings were denounced by authorities and religious figures throughout the region, along with United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres. https://newsmanset.com/en/seven-killed-and-40-injured-after-gunmen-open-fire-at-church-funeral-in-jordan-29108

    South Korean officials say Kim Jong-un traveled to China over new bridge

    South Korean authorities reported that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un made a trip to China via a newly opened bridge. A government official informed Yonhap News Agency of South Korea that Kim reached the border city of Dandong after traveling by train from Pyongyang to Sinuiju and crossing the New Yalu River Bridge. Yonhap also noted that Chinese Premier Li Qiang had journeyed to Dandong. The visit was unannounced, and as of Saturday evening, neither Beijing nor Pyongyang had officially verified it. On Sunday, China is set to commemorate the anniversary of its involvement in support of North Korea during the 1950–1953 Korean War. If verified, the trip would mark Kim's first documented international travel in over a year and his sixth time visiting China. His most recent visit occurred in September 2025, when he took part in a military parade in Beijing alongside Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Japan’s Kyodo news agency noted traffic restrictions near a bridge and a war museum, along with limits on hotel reservations in the surrounding area. According to diplomatic sources cited by the agency, these actions were connected to the arrival of a high-ranking North Korean figure. Xi is set to host the APEC summit in Shenzhen on November 18 and 19, leading to speculation about a potential encounter between Kim and U.S. President Donald Trump. According to Reuters, US and South Korean officials believe there is minimal likelihood of such a meeting occurring this year. https://newsmanset.com/en/kim-jong-un-crosses-over-newly-opened-bridge-into-china-29174

    Authorities reported that a shooting occurred near the campus of Florida A&M University in Tallahassee, leaving 11 people with gunshot wounds and one additional person injured. The university said the incident took place on Perry Street near campus on Saturday night. Police counted six adults and six juveniles among those injured. At least three victims sustained serious injuries, while nine others were reported in stable condition, according to police.

According to the New York Post, an altercation at a homecoming party escalated into gunfire after a fight involving two or three individuals just before 8 p.m. Police said their violent crimes unit was investigating. Chief Lawrence Revell said it was especially heartbreaking that children were among those injured. Florida A&M posted on X that the safety and security of its students, faculty and staff remained its highest priority. https://newsmanset.com/en/eleven-sustain-gunshot-wounds-in-shooting-near-florida-university-29256

    Women explore communal living after widowhood or divorce

    Some Gen X and boomer women are moving in together after widowhood or divorce rather than living alone. Upworthy explored the idea after AARP covered Golden Girls Weekend, a retreat in New Mexico where women in their 50s to early 70s discussed the pros and cons of communal living. Four workshops have been held, and another is planned for next month. The Modern Elder Academy runs them and has opened the next event to men. Founder Chip Conley said women were more likely than men to have seriously discussed living together. In an Upworthy reader poll, 33.7 percent preferred living next door rather than in the same house, while 16.2 percent said they would start choosing roommates. Another 29.4 percent would consider sharing a home if they had their own bathroom, and 20.7 percent preferred their own space. Writer Polly Hudson says living with friends appeals to her, but she doubts it would work well in practice. She points to the compromises of sharing a home and concludes that keeping separate addresses may be the best way to preserve a friendship. https://newsmanset.com/en/a-womens-commune-sounds-like-a-great-retirement-option-but-i-have-my-doubts-polly-hudson-29147

    Young Americans turn to Y2K cars as new vehicles grow unaffordable

    An increasing number of young people in the U.S. are opting for vehicles manufactured in the late 1990s and early 2000s, as purchasing new or recently used models becomes more financially challenging. Jack Price spent $6,000 on a 2010 Volkswagen Jetta after enlisting in the Marines in 2021. Five years later, it continues to serve him well, even with issues like a sunroof that leaks and a headliner that sags. The draw of these older models—often referred to as Y2K cars—lies in their low purchase cost, affordable insurance, and the ability for owners to fix them themselves. Some consumers also appreciate the straightforward controls and the sense of nostalgia they evoke. However, finding good deals is becoming more difficult: cars priced below fifteen thousand dollars now make up 15 percent of the used-car inventory, down from 21 percent, as reported by Cox Automotive. The vehicles come with disadvantages. Consumer Reports auto expert Keith Barry cautions that the presence of long-lasting older models on the road can give a false sense of dependability. Older cars often miss out on numerous contemporary safety technologies and might require regular maintenance. Newer models may provide enhanced safety, but the monthly payment costs present a significant obstacle for younger consumers. Ford launched its Maverick compact truck in 2021 at a base price under thirty thousand dollars, while electric-truck company Slate aims to start processing orders by year's end, with an entry-level cost around twenty-five thousand dollars. Barry warns that even a reasonably priced new car is probably going to cost more than an older secondhand one. https://newsmanset.com/en/the-young-americans-choosing-y2k-cars-over-shiny-new-suvs-i-get-so-much-crap-from-people-29060

    Court to weigh Nick Reiner’s access to trust for murder defense

    A court in Los Angeles will hold a hearing on Friday to determine if Nick Reiner is allowed to use a trust fund established for him by his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, to cover the costs of his murder defense. The 33-year-old faces charges of first-degree murder in connection with their deaths. Authorities claim he killed the couple with a fatal stabbing at their Brentwood residence in December 2025 and then escaped. Reiner has entered a not guilty plea to both murder charges. Reiner claims the trust funds are essential for his defense and were withheld for years before his parents' deaths without any legal basis. A court document states the couple set up individual trusts for each child, specifying that Nick would get half the money at age 30 and the remainder at 35. His lawyers claim the trustee provided inconsistent justifications for blocking access. Reiner’s previous attorney, Alan Jackson, left the case due to an inability to pay legal fees, according to court records. Reiner has expressed his intention to re-engage Jackson once he gains access to the trust. His legal team emphasizes that the trust matter is unrelated to the events surrounding his parents’ deaths and stresses his presumption of innocence. https://newsmanset.com/en/la-court-to-address-whether-nick-reiner-can-use-trust-to-pay-for-murder-defense-28930
