Building a Linux GPU Driver for the M4 Mac Mini in One Month
Two developers built a fully OpenGL ES 3.0 compliant Linux GPU driver for the M4 Mac Mini in one month via clean-room reverse engineering.
Niklas and the author reverse engineered Apple's AGX GPU firmware ABI and user-space components in about a month, a process that normally takes years, producing an OpenGL ES 3.0 conformant driver fast enough to run Minecraft at 200fps on an M4 Mac Mini. The work was done transparently using hypervisor traces without examining Apple binaries, following clean-room practices, and included a custom shader compiler, command stream builder, and a full Linux kernel driver for the firmware ABI. The A18 Pro firmware ABI proved significantly more complex than the M1's, with 1.5x as many structs and twice as many pointers. All experiments and provenance evidence were published in public agx-re repositories.
Condé Nast Data of 32.8 Million Users Offered for Sale After WIRED Leak
A 32.8 million-record Conde Nast user database is offered for $15,000 on a Russian cybercrime forum, extending December's WIRED leak with millions of unseen records.
A database of 32,815,767 Conde Nast user records went on sale on 7 September 2026 for $15,000 on a Russian-language forum, containing names, addresses, birth dates and phone numbers but no passwords or payment data. Ransomnews verified a 5,000-record sample as genuine account data collected between September and late October 2025, with roughly 30.5 million non-WIRED records never previously published. The listing matches the December 2025 WIRED leak of 2,366,576 records, claimed by an actor called 'Lovely' who said 40+ million records were stolen via IDOR and broken access controls. Conde Nast has not confirmed the breach; exposed data enables credible targeted phishing and fraud.
Week in review: Compromised Zimbra servers, previously patched Citrix NetScaler flaw exploited

Hacking Public Wi-Fi DNS to Steal Credentials
Attackers can hijack public Wi-Fi DNS to redirect users to credential-stealing fake login pages; commenters debate HTTPS limits and mitigations like encrypted DNS.
The discussion examines how an attacker controlling DNS on shared or public Wi-Fi networks can redirect requests for legitimate services to attacker-controlled servers to steal credentials. Commenters analyze whether HTTPS and certificates mitigate the attack, noting attackers often rely on HTTP or browser trust quirks. Suggested defenses include encrypted DNS (DoH), DNSSEC, and travel routers running OpenWRT. No specific campaign, victims, or indicators are provided.
737 Chrome VPN Extensions Caught Routing Traffic Through Proxies. Check If You Have One
Researchers found 737 Chrome VPN extensions, many impersonating brands like NordVPN, routing roughly 75,000 users' browser traffic through attacker-controlled SOCKS5 proxies.
Socket and researcher Kush Pandya identified 737 Chrome VPN and proxy extensions, published across at least 40 developer accounts with 75,486 installs, that route entire browser sessions through one provider's SOCKS5 proxies on port 1082. Of these, 274 impersonate 66 established brands including Proton VPN, NordVPN, Surfshark, ExpressVPN, and Cloudflare 1.1.1.1. The proxy bypass list only excludes loopback addresses, exposing visited destinations, source IPs, TLS SNI values, and plain-HTTP request bodies to the operator. 221 extensions have been removed from the Chrome Web Store while 516 remain listed as active.
