Hackers exploit a blind spot by hiding malware inside DNS records

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-20 17:15:04

Hackers are stashing malware in a place that’s largely out of the reach of most defenses—inside domain name system (DNS) records that map domain names to their corresponding numerical IP addresses. The practice allows malicious scripts and early-stage malware to fetch binary files without having to download them from suspicious sites or attach them to emails, where they frequently get quarantined by antivirus software. That’s because traffic for DNS lookups often goes largely unmonitored by man

There could be “dark main sequence” stars at the galactic center

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-20 17:30:58

The main sequence, however, is based on an assumption that's almost always true: All of the energy involved comes from the gravity-driven fusion of lighter elemen
