Google spoofed via DKIM replay attack: A technical breakdown

This morning started with a call from a friend – clearly shaken. He had just received an alarming email that looked strikingly legitimate. Unsure whether it was safe or a scam, he reached out to me for help verifying its authenticity.

Two major AI coding tools wiped out user data after making cascading mistakes

New types of AI coding assistants promise to let anyone build software by typing commands in plain English. But when these tools generate incorrect internal representations of what's happening on your computer, the results can be catastrophic. Two recent incidents involving AI coding assistants put a spotlight on risks in the emerging field of "vibe coding"—using natural language to generate and execute code through AI models without paying close attention to how the code works under the hood.
