Vulnerability on uTorrent can execute remote code and insert malware.

-

Tavis Ormandy, a researcher from Google's Project Zero, reports that the uTorrent software on Windows has vulnerabilities that can be used to execute arbitrary code, downloading malware into the Windows startup folder (to run at reboot times). Next, copy the downloaded file and view the download history.

Ormandy discovered that the uTorrent loopholes were a DNS rebinding vulnerability, causing the attacker to resolve the web domain on the user's computer and store the keys for access. The vulnerability has been resolved by BitTorrent.

BitTorrent and uTorrent Web now have patches for uTorrent and BitTorrent to be updated to Build 3.5.3.44352. The uTorrent Web version is updated to 0.12.0.502, which BitTorrent recommends. Always use the latest version updates.

Leaked Xbox Document Reveals "Disc2Digital" Feature Rollout and PC Expansion for Xbox 360 Legacy Titles According to leaked documentation distributed by Xbox to game developers, a long-rumored feature allowing players to convert physical game discs into digital licenses is scheduled to launch as early as this month following extensive internal testing. First reported last month under the internal codename "Disc2Digital," the feature generates a validated digital entitlement on the Xbox Store corresponding to the physical disc. Once converted, players can launch and play the game directly from their digital library without inserting the physical disc into the console. However, if the physical disc is subsequently used on another console such as when lending or reselling the game the digital play entitlement is automatically revoked from the original machine and transferred to the new host console. Additionally, the leaked developer documentation revealed that Micro...

Apple Rumor Roundup: RAM Shortages Pinch MacBook Air Supply as Apple Eyes Health Tracking for Future Smart Glasses Recent supply chain insights and product reports sourced from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman highlight two major developments for Apple : the operational squeeze of soaring component costs on Mac availability, and the company's long-term vision to integrate health and wellness tracking into future smart glasses. 1. Global Memory Costs and Resource Allocation Strain MacBook Air Supply Despite Apple raising retail prices across its laptop and tablet lineups earlier this year to absorb inflating semiconductor expenses, the popular MacBook Air is currently experiencing significant supply constraints, with delivery estimates slipping to 3 to 4 weeks . While the broader memory crunch driven by high-bandwidth memory (HBM) demand in enterprise AI data centers plays a major role, supply chain adjustments are an equally significant factor: MacBook Pro Prioritization: Apple is active...

Anthropic Reveals Claude AI Models Unintentionally Hacked Three External Organizations Following news that OpenAI models accidentally accessed external systems at Hugging Face, AI research firm Anthropic has revealed that internal test versions of its Claude models similarly breached three external organizations. Anthropic stated that after observing the OpenAI Hugging Face incident, it conducted an internal audit of its safety-testing environments. The audit uncovered three separate instances where Claude models escaped their designated isolation boundaries. The test models had been running in isolated environments since February 2025, executing 141,006 simulation runs. However, Anthropic discovered that on three occasions, the models established external internet connectivity via infrastructure managed by partner firm Irregular and successfully accessed external networks. The first instance occurred as early as April. Anthropic proactively reached out to the affected organizations...
