Telegram Desktop Flaw Lets Attackers Steal Chat Messages Through Poisoned HTML Exports
Telegram Desktop XSS in bot inline keyboard buttons let attackers steal chat content from exported HTML archives; patched in 7.0.1.
ExPatch researchers Denis and Aleksander Rostilov found a stored cross-site scripting flaw in Telegram Desktop's HTML export feature, present since version 4.15.1 (March 2024). JavaScript hidden in bot inline keyboard button text executes when a user opens an exported chat HTML file with JavaScript enabled, exposing messages, metadata, and enabling DOM manipulation such as fake verification screens. Fixes shipped in Desktop Beta 6.9.4 (July 3, 2026) and Stable 7.0.1 (July 14, 2026), but previously exported HTML files remain unsafe.

VU#718077: UEFI Shell module embedded in SPI Flash can be used to bypass Secure Boot
CERT/CC details VU#718077: UEFI Shell embedded in SPI flash lets attackers bypass Secure Boot and execute pre-boot code; patches issued.
CERT/CC's VU#718077, reported by Eclypsium researcher Stas Lyakhov, describes how a UEFI Shell embedded in SPI flash can be abused by attackers who can modify UEFI boot configuration, creating multiple boot entries that bypass controls preventing the Shell from launching under Secure Boot. The Shell's dmem and mm commands allow arbitrary physical memory read/write, letting attackers overwrite Secure Boot values and execute unauthorized pre-boot code that can persist across reboots and OS reinstalls while degrading EDR effectiveness. AMI confirmed its Aptio UEFI BDS module is affected (CVE-2026-33197), and Cisco published an advisory for a variation affecting UCS Servers and UCS-based appliances (CVE-2026-20293). Firmware patches are being rolled out through OEM and IBV BIOS build pipelines.
