Last night IFF, @SFLCin and @geoblockedindia received a legal notice said to be issued purportedly on behalf of the RSS. It’s hard to believe this comes from an organisation that has had a century to practise its paperwork and hence this may even be a weird prank! This notice asks us to stop criticising the Government’s blocking orders and stop documenting them. It also wants us to confirm in writing within seven days (seriously).
We can tell it’s an excellent teaching aid and here are seven lessons from it.
1) Say who you are: The notice names no advocate and gives no enrollment number. It is signed by an “Authorised Signatory” with no name. Replies go to a free Proton Mail ID, and the “office” is a residential flat in outer Delhi. A notice that can’t tell you who sent it is less a legal document than a weather event.
2) Have a grievance of your own: It never says how its client is harmed when we criticise a MeitY advisory. It complains on behalf of the Government’s blocking orders. The Union has no shortage of lawyers, and it hasn’t asked for volunteers.
3) Name the law: It threatens “appropriate legal action” under “the applicable provisions of law” and doesn’t cite a single section of any statute. A threat with no law, is literally an empty threat.
4) Don’t ask people to give up a fundamental right within seven days: The first demand is that we stop “publicly opposing” government directions. In Shreya Singhal (2015), the Supreme Court held that discussion and advocacy of a cause, however unpopular, sit at the heart of Article 19(1)(a). Opposing an order is how its legality gets tested. That is the Constitution working as intended.
5) Check whether the courts asked for the thing you want stopped” In Anuradha Bhasin (2020), the Supreme Court held that orders restricting fundamental rights must be made available so people can challenge them. The Reddit order is on the public Lumen Database because Reddit put it there. Reading a public database and saying what’s in it has a name. It’s called research.
6) Show us the spark and the powder keg: The notice says our work weakens national security measures, but it gives no instance, date or harm. In S. Rangarajan (1989), the Supreme Court held that the danger feared from speech can’t be remote, conjectural or far-fetched. It has to be like a spark in a powder keg. A post about a Lumen filing is not a spark.
7) Read it once more before you press send: The paragraphs run 1, then an empty 2 and 3, then 4. A PIN code wanders into the facts. The account it targets is on “Twitter”.
Our reply is short. The notice is legally deficient because it makes no material allegation and cites no illegality. We will respectfully continue to advance constitutional rights, as we have done before. Notices like this rarely expect to win in court. They expect the recipient to get tired. We often are tired, but it has never changed what we do. Solidarity with @SFLCin and @geoblockedindia.

We had written to PM @narendramodi asking for removing the ban on worship at ancient Hindu temples under his government and also for allowing them to be restored from ruins.
The @PMOIndia forwarded it to @ASIGoI who has closed the file with below remarks.

Either agree or disagree,
but this is the reality we're living in right now.
- The people who were studious in school, scored top grades, got into good colleges, and did everything society told them to do are now struggling to find jobs.
AI is slowly taking over jobs that they spent years studying for.
Meanwhile, the kids who were busy dancing, drawing, sketching, singing, or just doing bakchodi are building careers by creating content around the very things they love doing.
I genuinely feel the "Padho-likho, bade aadmi banoge" era is slowly coming to an end.

A man who was accused as the VIP in Ankita Bhandari murder case was given impunity by making him a state governer.
A woman who was ready for narco test which was scheduled for tomorrow is arrested today by Haridawar police from Saharanpur.
The gov. is doing everything to save the culprits because he is from the party and may be, he has some secret information.

Hello @nikitalndia @treeni what the fuck is going on in maharastra
BIGGER THAN EPSTEIN FILES!
LATUR SEX SCANDAL
More than 500 minor hindu girls were raped! In 33 years.
(1st video) 2:21 - 2:38 Reporter: whats actually matter here? Why is this protest being called & why are Latur people gathered here?! And How many women have been identified as victims so far? Has any specific number been officially confirmed by the authorities?
2:39 - 5:16 Guy in white shirt:This basheer shaikh guy ,even ashok kharat is small infront of him, he is not only Maharashtra's Epstein but he is india's Epstein. When he was a professor in Dayanand College,he fornicated multiple girls, on top of that he was also in nearby school where he used to teach who's name am currently not able to recall, he raped/fornicated girls of class 8th std 9th std and 10th std and total victims are more than 100... we have proof of when he had 23 girls in his class he fornicated 18 girls in class and in other batch when there were 11 girls he fornicated 7 girls out of them. If you calculate the ratio of all the girls he fornicated in his entire 33 years of career ,you can only imagine how large the number is!! This monster fornicated our children our babies etc .This guy was even beat 2 times before over similar behavior yet, administration did nothing, he used his network connections and money to silence police and even the parents of those girls and pressured them to keep quite.Even We have news the daughters of Police personnel and police officers were raped in this matter.So if police administration might think they are safe, so let me tell you even your daughters fell victim to it.When we saw the viral clips and went to police station police told us they cant take any action unless they dont bring the victims themselves, is the basheer shaikh really culprit, are girls the same ? this is what they asked us and asked us to solve by yourself and bring it to us later.Then me, Radhika patil (lady in green dress) and santosh Panchal , Gote kendre we worked all day and night and gathered evidences yet police administration didn't take any action.
5:17 -5:26 Reporter: Basically you're saying that, police only filed POCSO case and asked for Evidences.
5:27 - 7:22 Guy in white shirt: The problem in this matter is the parents aren't coming forward and we literally had to beg them to file complaint then one FIR was filed and that too sexual harassment and not Rape!
If police administration really wanna work, they should find the list of all the girls admitted in those classes and take them in your trust adn ask them everything, these women will literally cry while sharing their experiences , if not ,then Hang us in public !
We hindus should be ashamed of ourselves this has been happening since 33 years!We were sleeping!
7:23 - 7:33 Reporter: SIr,on social media people are making it about caste and religion, is the victim only hindu?!
7:34 -8:13 "Guy in white shirt:In this exploitation this guy didn't discriminate based on caste or religion ,yesterday the 5 girls which came to us amongst them 1 was dalit and 1 was muslim ! Total 7 girls are with us now. Even UP Bihar is getting better but Maharashtra is becoming worse day by day!"
8:13 - 10:30 Guy in white shirt: Talks about random cases in Latur....
10:31 - 10:41 Reporter : Recently we had a news that some politicians were talking about money deal over this case...
10:42 - 11:54 Radhika patil: Lets ignore that topic and focus on victim girls pls brother...we should focus more on hanging this guy, most of the victims are also from 10th class, even its about their future and their parents are confused about where they should take admission for their daughter after leaving this school. Even theres exams now for 10th class students in few months.What are we gonna do about this, just filling an FIR wont solve everything or making it a media post wont solve either. Everyone should talk about their future too.
Also since you were talking about politicians using money deals in this matter...when we were counseling the girls, the goons of basheer shaikh and politicians tried to put pressure over parents to close this case and even offered money to keep silence, around 12 o clock at night. But hopefully no parent entertained them and were made to leave that place.
11:55 - 11:57 Reporter: Has there been at least one case of Rape?
11:58 -12-30 Radhika patil: There has been no rape of girls, each girl was fornicated (soshan) by that guy. Even fornication/soshan is not a small crime! while He used to teach science to girls ...he used to do lots of objectionable things to girls which i cant even tell infront of media . He used to take one room for one girl while reading. Why does he need one separate room for one girl??? what were administrative doing during those times, were they sleeping??
13:30 -14:24 ( chants we should hang this Epstien basheer shaikh !)
14:25 -15:44 Other protestor: This guys school and tution classes should be bulldozed including all his other institutes he has.
15:45 - 16:12 Reporter :In Latur crimes have been on rise but administrative has not taken any stiff action. They might have run some social awareness camps in schools to aware students/girls, did they hear what troubles are students actually going through?
16:13 - 17.05 Radhika patil : I guess police had conducted some social awareness camps around 6 months ago yet there was no Result of those camps on students. These people only took some photos , gave some speech , that doesnt mean it created any awakening amongst them.Most parents are still scrared to even dial 112 number! Even if they file complaint they are later onward pressured to compromise and take back case by police themselves.
17:06- 17:23 Reporter: Lala saheb...what will you speak over this incident ?!
17:34 - 26:24 Lala saheb shaikh : For our latur city its really heartbreaking case. its about girls life.We send our daughter to classes and this is what they do with out children. This is sad news for latur . Around 1993 i used to live around this campus ,this is why i was vocal about it, not because that guy is muslim or chritian . Teachers are supposed to be caretaker, childrens father, and if the student is a girl then its mother for him. we say in our walid teacher is 2nd parent.This guy commited monsterous thing, so sister should have said vigilance is not benefiaciary ...
And do you know that clip was snet to me by a musalman, not by a hindu so you cant make it a hindu muslim case! i cant name the person though but its not hindu muslim case but Laturkar case! I went to MIDC police station and told them to close the school which is nearby to it. its not about hindu muslim , its about indian moothers disresprct .
Even in 1993 he exploited a minor girl i had complained but they harrased me instead.He got much support. Hence he got away. this guy loves girls bodies who are 12 year old, whats the difference between him and epstienn !!!?? In 1993 there was no phone or sms or smartphone, still he used to take the girl to different room. Its not sanskriti of teacher student !
Lots of those girls got married and basheer shaikh used to call these same women even after marriage saying "you look pretty " " i wanna meet you" etc.
In 2nd video Lala shaikh urf Lala saheb shaikh
Says Basheer shaikh sexu@lly exploitated a minor girl in school in 1993 ,at that time lala shaikh had gone to file an FIR but basheer filed fraudulent cases on Lala shaikh saying he invaded basheers house and was a thief etc And even in 1997 he had impregnated an schoolgirl , when lala shaikh went to file complaint the ACP Abdul Rahman at that time was partner/friend of Basheer shaikh and harassed Lala shaikh and destroyed his muslim organizations to close the case.
Most of the money he earned are from Plotting and running these school and institutes.

एपस्टीन फाइल्स से भी बड़ा!
लातूर सेक्स स्कैंडल
500 से अधिक नाबालिग हिंदू लड़कियों का बलात्कार! 33 वर्षों में।
2:21 - 2:38
रिपोर्टर: यहाँ असल मुद्दा क्या है? यह विरोध क्यों बुलाया जा रहा है और लातूर के लोग यहाँ क्यों इकट्ठा हुए हैं?! अब तक कितनी महिलाओं को पीड़ित के रूप में पहचाना गया है? क्या अधिकारियों द्वारा कोई खास संख्या आधिकारिक रूप से पुष्टि की गई है?
2:39 - 5:16
सफेद शर्ट वाला आदमी: यह बशीर शेख वाला आदमी, अशोक खरात भी उसके सामने छोटा है, वह सिर्फ महाराष्ट्र का एपस्टीन नहीं बल्कि भारत का एपस्टीन है। जब वह दयानंद कॉलेज में प्रोफेसर था, उसने कई लड़कियों के साथ यौन संबंध बनाए, इसके अलावा वह पास के एक स्कूल में भी पढ़ाता था जिसका नाम मुझे अभी याद नहीं आ रहा, उसने 8वीं, 9वीं और 10वीं कक्षा की लड़कियों का बलात्कार/यौन शोषण किया और कुल पीड़ित 100 से अधिक हैं... हमारे पास सबूत है कि जब उसकी क्लास में 23 लड़कियाँ थीं तो उसने 18 लड़कियों के साथ यौन संबंध बनाए और दूसरी बैच में जब 11 लड़कियाँ थीं तो उसने उनमें से 7 के साथ यौन संबंध बनाए। अगर आप उसके पूरे 33 साल के करियर में जिन लड़कियों के साथ उसने यौन संबंध बनाए उनका अनुपात निकालें तो आप सोच ही सकते हैं कि संख्या कितनी बड़ी है!! इस राक्षस ने हमारे बच्चों, हमारे नन्हे बच्चों के साथ ऐसा किया। इस आदमी को पहले भी इसी तरह के व्यवहार के लिए दो बार पीटा गया था फिर भी प्रशासन ने कुछ नहीं किया, उसने अपने नेटवर्क कनेक्शन और पैसे का इस्तेमाल करके पुलिस और उन लड़कियों के माता-पिता को चुप रहने के लिए दबाया। हमें खबर मिली है कि इस मामले में पुलिस कर्मियों और पुलिस अधिकारियों की बेटियों का भी बलात्कार हुआ। तो अगर पुलिस प्रशासन यह सोच रहा है कि वे सुरक्षित हैं, तो मैं आपको बता दूँ कि आपकी बेटियाँ भी इसकी शिकार हुईं। जब हमने वायरल क्लिप देखी और पुलिस स्टेशन गए तो पुलिस ने कहा कि जब तक आप खुद पीड़ितों को नहीं लाएंगे वे कोई कार्रवाई नहीं कर सकते, क्या बशीर शेख सचमुच दोषी है, क्या लड़कियाँ वही हैं? यही उन्होंने हमसे पूछा और कहा कि खुद सुलझाओ और बाद में हमारे पास लाओ। फिर मैं, राधिका पाटिल (हरी ड्रेस वाली महिला) और संतोष पांचाल, गोटे केंद्रे हमने दिन-रात मेहनत की और सबूत इकट्ठा किए फिर भी पुलिस प्रशासन ने कोई कार्रवाई नहीं की।
5:17 - 5:26
रिपोर्टर: मतलब आप कह रहे हैं कि पुलिस ने सिर्फ POCSO केस दर्ज किया और सबूत मांगे।
5:27 - 7:22
सफेद शर्ट वाला आदमी: इस मामले में समस्या यह है कि माता-पिता आगे नहीं आ रहे और हमें सचमुच उनसे विनती करनी पड़ी शिकायत दर्ज कराने के लिए, फिर एक FIR दर्ज हुई और वह भी यौन उत्पीड़न की, बलात्कार की नहीं! अगर पुलिस प्रशासन सचमुच काम करना चाहता है तो उन्हें उन कक्षाओं में दाखिल सभी लड़कियों की लिस्ट निकालनी चाहिए और उन्हें विश्वास में लेकर सब कुछ पूछना चाहिए, ये महिलाएँ अपने अनुभव बताते समय सचमुच रोएंगी, अगर नहीं रोईं तो हमें सार्वजनिक रूप से फाँसी दे दो! हम हिंदुओं को खुद पर शर्म आनी चाहिए, यह 33 साल से चल रहा है! हम सो रहे थे!
7:23 - 7:33
रिपोर्टर: सर, सोशल मीडिया पर लोग इसे जाति और धर्म का मुद्दा बना रहे हैं, क्या पीड़ित सिर्फ हिंदू हैं?!
7:34 - 8:13
सफेद शर्ट वाला आदमी: इस शोषण में इस आदमी ने जाति या धर्म के आधार पर भेदभाव नहीं किया, कल हमारे पास जो 5 लड़कियाँ आईं उनमें 1 दलित थी और 1 मुस्लिम! अब हमारे पास कुल 7 लड़कियाँ हैं। उत्तर प्रदेश-बिहार भी सुधर रहा है लेकिन महाराष्ट्र दिन-ब-दिन बदतर होता जा रहा है!
8:13 - 10:30
सफेद शर्ट वाला आदमी: लातूर के कुछ यादृच्छिक मामलों के बारे में बात करता है...
10:31 - 10:41
रिपोर्टर: हाल ही में खबर आई थी कि कुछ राजनेता इस मामले पर पैसे के सौदे की बात कर रहे थे...
10:42 - 11:54
राधिका पाटिल: उस विषय को छोड़ दें और पीड़ित लड़कियों पर ध्यान दें भाई... हमें इस आदमी को फाँसी देने पर ज्यादा ध्यान देना चाहिए, ज्यादातर पीड़ित 10वीं कक्षा की भी हैं, यह उनके भविष्य का सवाल है और उनके माता-पिता असमंजस में हैं कि इस स्कूल छोड़ने के बाद अपनी बेटी का दाखिला कहाँ करवाएँ। 10वीं कक्षा की परीक्षाएँ भी कुछ महीनों में होने वाली हैं। हम क्या करने वाले हैं, सिर्फ FIR दर्ज कराने से या मीडिया पोस्ट बनाने से सब कुछ हल नहीं होगा। सबको उनके भविष्य के बारे में भी बात करनी चाहिए।
और जब आप राजनेताओं के पैसे के सौदे की बात कर रहे थे... जब हम लड़कियों की काउंसलिंग कर रहे थे तो बशीर शेख के गुंडों और राजनेताओं ने माता-पिता पर केस बंद करने का दबाव डाला और चुप रहने के लिए पैसे भी ऑफर किए, रात के करीब 12 बजे। लेकिन उम्मीद है कि किसी माता-पिता ने उनकी बात नहीं मानी और उन्हें वहाँ से निकलने पर मजबूर किया गया।
11:55 - 11:57
रिपोर्टर: क्या कम से कम एक बलात्कार का मामला तो है?
11:58 - 12:30
राधिका पाटिल: लड़कियों का कोई बलात्कार नहीं हुआ है, हर लड़की का उस आदमी द्वारा शोषण (fornication/soshan) किया गया। शोषण भी कोई छोटा अपराध नहीं है! जब वह लड़कियों को साइंस पढ़ाता था... वह लड़कियों के साथ कई आपत्तिजनक हरकतें करता था जो मैं मीडिया के सामने बता भी नहीं सकती। वह पढ़ाते समय एक लड़की के लिए एक अलग कमरा ले लेता था। उसे एक लड़की के लिए अलग कमरे की जरूरत क्यों पड़ती थी??? उस समय प्रशासन क्या कर रहा था, क्या वे सो रहे थे??
13:30 - 14:24
(नारे: हमें इस एपस्टीन बशीर शेख को फाँसी देनी चाहिए!)
14:25 - 15:44
अन्य प्रदर्शनकारी: इस आदमी के स्कूल और ट्यूशन क्लासेस को बुलडोज़ कर देना चाहिए, उसके बाकी सभी संस्थानों को भी।
15:45 - 16:12
रिपोर्टर: लातूर में अपराध बढ़ रहे हैं लेकिन प्रशासन ने कोई कड़ा कदम नहीं उठाया। उन्होंने शायद स्कूलों में कुछ सामाजिक जागरूकता कैंप चलाए होंगे ताकि छात्रों/लड़कियों को जागरूक किया जा सके, क्या उन्होंने सुना कि छात्र असल में किन परेशानियों से गुजर रहे हैं?
16:13 - 17:05
राधिका पाटिल: मुझे लगता है पुलिस ने करीब 6 महीने पहले कुछ सामाजिक जागरूकता कैंप चलाए थे फिर भी छात्रों पर उसका कोई नतीजा नहीं निकला। ये लोग सिर्फ कुछ फोटो ले लेते हैं, कुछ भाषण दे देते हैं, इसका मतलब यह नहीं कि उनमें कोई जागृति आई। ज्यादातर माता-पिता अभी भी 112 नंबर डायल करने से डरते हैं! अगर वे शिकायत भी दर्ज करवा देते हैं तो बाद में पुलिस खुद ही उन पर समझौता करने और केस वापस लेने का दबाव डालती है।
17:06 - 17:23
रिपोर्टर: लाला साहेब... इस घटना पर आप क्या बोलेंगे?!
17:34 - 26:24
लाला साहेब शेख: हमारे लातूर शहर के लिए यह सचमुच दिल तोड़ने वाला मामला है। यह लड़कियों की जिंदगी का सवाल है। हम अपनी बेटियों को क्लास में भेजते हैं और वे हमारे बच्चों के साथ यह करते हैं। यह लातूर के लिए दुखद खबर है। करीब 1993 में मैं इस कैंपस के आसपास रहता था, इसीलिए मैं इस पर मुखर था, इसलिए नहीं कि वह आदमी मुस्लिम या क्रिश्चियन है। शिक्षकों को देखभाल करने वाले, बच्चों के पिता होने चाहिए और अगर छात्र लड़की हो तो उसके लिए माँ। हम कहते हैं कि शिक्षक दूसरा माता-पिता होता है। इस आदमी ने राक्षसी काम किया, इसलिए बहन को कहना चाहिए था कि सतर्कता लाभदायक नहीं...
और क्या आप जानते हैं कि वह क्लिप मुझे एक मुसलमान ने भेजी थी, किसी हिंदू ने नहीं, इसलिए आप इसे हिंदू-मुस्लिम मामला नहीं बना सकते! मैं उस व्यक्ति का नाम नहीं बता सकता लेकिन यह हिंदू-मुस्लिम मामला नहीं बल्कि लातूरकरों का मामला है! मैं MIDC पुलिस स्टेशन गया और उनसे कहा कि पास वाले स्कूल को बंद करो। यह हिंदू-मुस्लिम का सवाल नहीं है, यह भारतीय माताओं के अपमान का सवाल है।
1993 में भी उसने एक नाबालिग लड़की का शोषण किया था, मैंने शिकायत की थी लेकिन उन्होंने मुझे परेशान किया। उसे बहुत समर्थन मिला। इसलिए वह बच गया। यह आदमी 12 साल की लड़कियों के शरीरों से प्यार करता है, उसमें और एपस्टीन में क्या फर्क है!!!?? 1993 में न फोन था न SMS न स्मार्टफोन, फिर भी वह लड़की को अलग कमरे में ले जाता था। यह शिक्षक-छात्र की संस्कृति नहीं है!
उनमें से कई लड़कियाँ शादी कर चुकी हैं और बशीर शेख उन महिलाओं को शादी के बाद भी फोन करता था और कहता था “तुम सुंदर लग रही हो”, “मैं तुमसे मिलना चाहता हूँ” आदि।
2nd video लाला शेख उर्फ लाला साहेब शेख कहते हैं कि बशीर शेख ने 1993 में स्कूल में एक नाबालिग लड़की का यौन शोषण किया था। उस समय लाला शेख FIR दर्ज कराने गए थे लेकिन बशीर ने लाला शेख पर झूठे/धोखाधड़ी वाले मामले दर्ज कराए थे, जिसमें कहा गया था कि उसने बशीर के घर में घुसपैठ की और चोर था आदि। और 1997 में भी उसने एक स्कूली लड़की को गर्भवती कर दिया था। जब लाला शेख शिकायत दर्ज कराने गए तो उस समय के ACP अब्दुल रहमान बशीर शेख के साथी/दोस्त थे और उन्होंने लाला शेख को परेशान किया तथा मामले को बंद करने के लिए उसके मुस्लिम संगठनों को नष्ट कर दिया। उसने जो भी पैसा कमाया है वह इन स्कूलों और संस्थानों की प्लॉटिंग और चलाने से है।

Today we are in a security nightmare:
- Railway may have exposed customer environment variables and API keys
- SBI confirmed that customer records ended up on the dark web
- eMudhra's certificate keys were extremely weak (one was literally just the number 4)
- LiteLLM shipped a compromised version that steals credentials and includes a backdoor
- PHP released two critical remote code execution vulnerabilities (PHP2Shell)
- Node.js issued urgent security patches for a Brotli decoder remote code execution flaw, plus TLS and DNS issues and blocked the compromised eMudhra certificates
- Rajasthan gov systems were allegedly linked to the exposure of a large set of identity records
- OpenCode confirmed a breach that exposed AI provider API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) for a portion of Console users

- GitLab fixed a critical CVSS 10.0 unauthenticated remote code execution flaw in its CI/CD regex compiler

We are underestimating the bad faith eMudhra possibly operated in. They actively added a step to the key generation process causing this failure but are making it seem like a dumb mistake. Let me explain with diagrams and python snippets 👇
Global TLS Intermediate CA incident: We’ve updated our incident page with how it happened, who is affected (one US customer ecosystem), what’s not affected, and what we’re putting in place. We will publish the root cause once our investigation is complete.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
eMudhra minimizes the scope by claiming only "one US customer ecosystem" is affected. In reality, 8 of its CA certificates had catastrophically weak private keys (one being simply the number 4), allowing anyone to forge trusted HTTPS certificates for any website on the internet.blog.google/security/prote…

Crazy 72 hours in security. Three major incidents dropped back-to-back: eMudhra, PingCAP (TiDB Cloud), and PHP.
Here is the short version of what happened and who got hit.
1. eMudhra (Trusted CA compromise)
eMudhra generated 8 intermediate CA certificates in April 2025 (cross-signed by Sectigo). A bug in their HSM key-wrapping test script created a second set of P-384 keys where the private keys were single-byte numbers under 256. Operators picked the wrong key labels and signed them into real CA certs.
One of the intermediate CA private keys was literally the number 4.
The other seven: 56, 66, 115, 155, 156, 230, 237.
Three weeks later (May 2025), their CRL signatures started failing because the CRL signer was using the real keys instead of the weak ones. Instead of asking why the keys didn't match, someone switched the CRL signer to the weak keys and closed the ticket.
• Browsers are safe: Chrome, Firefox, Apple, and Microsoft already blocked them, and zero rogue certs hit CT logs.
• Servers are not: curl, Python (certifi), Go binaries, and Docker base images don't check CRLs. Update ca-certificates, certifi, and Go (1.27.3 / 1.26.10).
• 10-second check on any server:
curl dv-g3b-emudhra.we-have-a-pro…
(TLS error = safe. 200 OK = still vulnerable.)
2. PingCAP / TiDB Cloud (10.6 TB breach)
Attackers found GCP and Azure credentials committed inside PingCAP's own repos. They set up a replication feed of TiDB Cloud's production control plane and exported the entire database every 6 hours for 22 straight days. 88 full exports, zero alerts. 200 GB is already out on torrents.
Beyond the 413 private repos and 20.6M customer SQL queries logged from their web SQL Editor, PingCAP engineers were pasting customer secrets into Jira tickets.
Who is affected in the leaked records:
• Live credentials exposed in support tickets:
- Pinterest: AWS keys for their pingcap-logs S3 bucket
- CardX / Silverlake (NPCI-linked env): AWS admin key in a backup log with full access to 258 external S3 buckets
- DeBank: 38 presigned S3 URLs
- An unnamed AI/dev platform: a 314 MB slow-query log attached to a ticket containing 8,027 live customer secrets (an AWS root key, a GitHub admin PAT over 1,701 repos, 7,485 AWS STS tokens, and 192 OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini keys)
• Tenants with infra metadata, VPC CIDRs, app-server IPs, or contract pricing exposed:
- Tech: Atlassian, Databricks, Airbnb, Baidu, LINE, Nylas, Persona, PatSnap
- E-comm & Travel: Booking.com, Shopee, Flipkart, Mercari, ZOZO, AEON, Delhivery, Klook
- Gaming: Capcom, Square Enix, Konami, Bandai Namco, Cygames, Colopl, DMM
- Finance: PayPay, SoftBank, SBI, SB Payment Service, Fujitsu, TOPPAN, Bank of China, China Life
- Crypto: Bitget (said only public trade logs were on it and they already left), Pionex, DigiPlus, NFTscan, Chainbase
• Developer profiles leaked (from a purchased reo.dev table in PingCAP's BigQuery):
- 24,900 personal emails + GitHub/LinkedIn profiles of engineers at Tencent (3,327), Huawei (2,726), ByteDance (2,475), AIG (2,140), Mastercard, Flipkart, and bKash.
If you use TiDB Cloud: rotate your console API keys, DB passwords, and anything you ever pasted into a support ticket.
3. PHP "PHP2Shell" (CVE-2026-109618 & CVE-2026-109619)
Two CVSS 9.2 pre-auth RCEs leaked yesterday ahead of today's 14:00 UTC patch.
Public writeups trace it to a heap Use-After-Free in PHP's native C multipart/form-data session upload-progress handler (ext/session/session.c).
Because C-level multipart parsing runs before line 1 of index.php:
• App auth, Laravel/WordPress middleware, and file_uploads = Off do not stop it.
• Only PHP 8.2–8.5 get official patches today (59% of PHP servers on Shodan are on EOL <= 8.1).
• Until you patch php-fpm: lock php_admin_flag[session.upload_progress.enabled] = off and block unexpected multipart requests at Nginx/Apache/Cloudflare.

We are preparing representations to @GoI_MeitY, @IndianCERT and @ccaindiapki on the compromise of the private keys of eight eMudhra (emSign) intermediate certification authority certificates. Given the scale of the issue, Cabinet Minister @AshwiniVaishnaw must issue a public statement and outline the steps being taken to address it.
