CISA confirms hackers are actively exploiting critical ‘Citrix Bleed 2’ bug

U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA says hackers are actively exploiting a critical-rated security flaw in a widely used Citrix product, and has given other federal government departments just one day to patch their systems. Security researchers have dubbed the bug “Citrix Bleed 2” for its similarity to a 2023 security flaw in Citrix NetScaler, a networking product that large companies and governments rely on for allowing their staff to remotely access apps and other resources on their internal netw

3 excellent Pixel accessories I’d buy before the end of Prime Day (I already have them!)

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority Prime Day is almost over — I know this because I’m rushing to research the last few items I need to buy before their price goes back up. You, though, don’t have to do the extensive research because I’ve done it for you. I have three excellent accessories that I use every day with my Pixel 9 Pro XL, Watch 3, and Buds 2 Pro, and I’d recommend them in a heartbeat. Some of these are review units that I’d buy myself if I didn’t have them, some are items I’ve bought

CISA tags Citrix Bleed 2 as exploited, gives agencies a day to patch

The U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency has confirmed active exploitation of the CitrixBleed 2 vulnerability (CVE-2025-5777) in Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway and is giving federal agencies one day to apply fixes. Such a short deadline for installing the patches is unprecedented since CISA released the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, showing the severity of the attacks exploiting the security issue. The agency added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabiliti

New leak spills Google’s full pricing strategy for the entire Pixel 10 lineup

Google is expected to launch the Pixel 10 series in the coming weeks, and we already know a lot about the device. We’ve seen leaked renders of the three devices and even a live image of the Pixel 10 Pro . Now, prices for the Pixel 10 series have leaked, and it’s good news for some regions at least. The leaker notes that the EU pricing for the upcoming Pixel phones is the same as last year. However, given the wildly fluctuating tariff situation, it’s unclear what the pricing will be in the US.

Squid Game Creator Unveils Scrapped Ending Fans Are Calling Better Than the Original

Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has revealed that season 3 almost had an enormously different ending -- an ending that might have gone over better with fans who are still divided over how the hit series wrapped. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hwang said he originally wrote an ending where Player 456, Seong Gi-hun, leaves the deadly games behind for good. That's a huge contrast to the version that actually aired, in which Gi-hun sacrifices his life in the end for the new P

Netflix Jumped In on the Shark Week Action in July, Landing Two New Hits

Every week, Netflix unveils its Top 10 lists for the week before, ranking TV shows and movies by viewership. One of this week's most-streamed movies is Shark Whisperer, a documentary about marine conservationist Ocean Ramsey (her given name), who regularly swims with sharks and encourages others to do so to educate people. That film, along with another new shark-related title, the reality competition series All the Sharks (currently trending at No. 2 in Kids TV on the platform), arrived in the p

ExTiX's new release is an even better Windows 11-like Linux desktop

Jack Wallen/ZDNET Back in 2022, I reviewed ExTiX with the idea of using it to get the Deepin desktop experience, without the possible security/privacy issues associated with Deepin Linux. Now ExTiX has a new release, based on Deepin 25 Stable. This new release vastly improves on the experience to deliver a desktop with a layout that would make any Windows 11 user feel right at home, only there are no intrusive ads, unexpected reboots, or concerns that something will come crashing down. When yo
