Docker Hub still hosts dozens of Linux images with the XZ backdoor

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-12-04 05:43:20

The XZ-Utils backdoor, first discovered in March 2024, is still present in at least 35 Linux images on Docker Hub, potentially putting users, organizations, and their data at risk. Docker Hub is the official public container image registry operated by Docker, allowing developers and organizations to upload or download prebuilt images and share them with the community. Many CI/CD pipelines, developers, and production systems pull images directly from Docker Hub as base layers for their own cont

Is the A.I. Boom Turning Into an A.I. Bubble?

news.ycombinator.com John Cassidy 2025-12-04 04:25:43

When Jensen Huang, the chief executive of the chipmaker Nvidia, met with Donald Trump in the White House last week, he had reason to be cheerful. Most of Nvidia’s chips, which are widely used to train generative artificial-intelligence models, are manufactured in Asia. Earlier this year, it pledged to increase production in the United States, and on Wednesday Trump announced that chip companies that promise to build products in the United States would be exempt from some hefty new tariffs on sem

techcrunch.com Lauren Forristal 2025-12-04 05:56:28

Back in 2019, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sued the dating app giant Match Group, accusing it of deceiving Match.com users into purchasing subscriptions through misleading means. Now, after six years, the company— which operates popular dating apps Match, Tinder, OkCupid, Hinge, and Plenty of Fish—has agreed to a $14 million settlement, as announced by the FTC on Tuesday.

James Gunn’s ‘Superman’ Flies Home This Week

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-12-04 09:50:59

James Gunn’s Superman was pushed out of the top five at the box office this past weekend, marking the beginning of the end of its box office run. It’s been a good one, with over $330 million in the U.S. so far and another $250 million worldwide. It’s the highest-grossing Superman film ever, domestically not adjusted for inflation, and now the journey takes its next step. Gunn took to social media Tuesday to announce his DC Universe film will be available on digital August 15. That’s this week.

That's not the only issue I have with the default Maps app. It seems every time I have to depend on the app, my Pixel 9 Pro battery gets drained faster than when using any other app. Those two issues alone are enough to make me question why I use such an app. That's why, when I heard about CoMaps, I imme

The US economy seems to be doing gangbusters lately, largely thanks to incredible booms in the tech sector.
