gizmodo.com Gizmodo Deals 2026-02-06 03:35:29

The top-of-the-line gaming laptops with powerful graphics cards and next-gen processors are rarely discounted, especially in a market that is going through shortages and keeping prices high.

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-06 02:20:24

A critical vulnerability allowing hackers to bypass multifactor authentication in network management devices made by Citrix has been actively exploited for more than a month, researchers said. The finding is at odds with advisories from the vendor saying there is no evidence of in-the-wild exploitation. Tracked as CVE-2025-5777, the vulnerability shares similarities with CVE-2023-4966, a security flaw nicknamed CitrixBleed, which led to the compromise of 20,000 Citrix devices two years ago. The

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Galaxy S25 FE has appeared in real-life images, thanks to a regulatory listing. These images show the same design as last year’s S24 FE, but upgraded wireless charging with Qi2 without the magnetic accessory support. The Galaxy S25 FE is rumored to skip major upgrades, except for a slightly slimmer profile and narrower display bezels.
