The scam MTN is running on Nigerians with data is unacceptable.
Imagine if MTN were owned by a Nigerian: South Africans wouldnโt tolerate such a scam. They would chase it out of their country or possibly set it ablaze.
Nigerians tolerate what should not be tolerated. How can someone buy 150GB of data only for it to get exhausted in 6 days?
MTN @MTNNG should be chased out of Nigeria. They are scamming us!

โ ๏ธ UPDATE: #cPanel flaw now tracked as CVE-2026-41940 (CVSS 9.8)โan auth bypass granting unauthenticated admin access.
Reportedly exploited as a 0-day, with activity observed for at least 30 days before disclosure. Root cause: CRLF injection enabling session forgery.
๐ Exploit mechanics and real-world impact โ https://t.co/8mHLoqywHY
โผ๏ธ๐จ BREAKING: An AI found a Linux kernel zero-day that roots every distribution since 2017. The exploit fits in 732 bytes of Python. Patch your kernel ASAP.
The vulnerability is CVE-2026-31431, nicknamed "Copy Fail," disclosed today by Theori. It has been sitting quietly in the Linux kernel for nine years.
Most Linux privilege-escalation bugs are picky. They need a precise timing window (a "race"), or specific kernel addresses leaked from somewhere, or careful tuning per distribution. Copy Fail needs none of that. It is a straight-line logic mistake that works on the first try, every time, on every mainstream Linux box.
The attacker just needs a normal user account on the machine. From there, the script asks the kernel to do some encryption work, abuses how that work is wired up, and ends up writing 4 bytes into a memory area called the "page cache" (Linux's high-speed copy of files in RAM). Those 4 bytes can be aimed at any program the system trusts, like /usr/bin/su, the shortcut to becoming root.
Result: the next time anyone runs that program, it lets the attacker in as root.
What should worry most: the corruption never touches the file on disk. It only exists in Linux's in-memory copy of that file. If you imaged the hard drive afterwards, the on-disk file would match the official package hash exactly. Reboot the machine, or just put it under memory pressure (any normal system load that needs the RAM), and the cached copy reloads fresh from disk.
Containers do not help either. The page cache is shared across the whole host, so a process inside a container can use this bug to compromise the underlying server and reach into other tenants.
The original sin was a 2017 "in-place optimization" in a kernel crypto module called algif_aead. It was meant to make encryption slightly faster. The change broke a critical safety assumption, and nobody noticed for nine years. That bug then rode every kernel update from 2017 to today.
This vulnerability affects the following:
๐ด Shared servers (dev boxes, jump hosts, build servers): any user becomes root
๐ด Kubernetes and container clusters: one compromised pod escapes to the host
๐ด CI runners (GitHub Actions, GitLab, Jenkins): a malicious pull request becomes root on the runner
๐ด Cloud platforms running user code (notebooks, agent sandboxes, serverless functions): a tenant becomes host root
Timeline:
๐ด March 23, 2026: reported to the Linux kernel security team
๐ด April 1: patch committed to mainline (commit a664bf3d603d)
๐ด April 22: CVE assigned
๐ด April 29: public disclosure
Mitigation: update your kernel to a build that includes mainline commit a664bf3d603d. If you cannot patch immediately, turn off the vulnerable module:
echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif.conf
rmmod algif_aead 2>/dev/null || true
For environments that run untrusted code (containers, sandboxes, CI runners), block access to the kernel's AF_ALG crypto interface entirely, even after patching. Almost nothing legitimate needs it, and blocking it shuts the door on this whole class of bug...
Same police man that asked me why my yansh was shaking even as I wore trousers, and he even had to touch my yansh also. There was a bit of hold-up a few years ago in 2023.
I had to hop on a bike when him and his squad stopped the bike. He asked me to come down. He, in particular, hit me with a gun and dragged the bike man down, and asked me to enter their shuttle bus. As I was approaching the shuttle bus, he hit me again with his gun and said why was my yansh shaking. I couldnโt say anything. He hit me again with the same gun and said I should thank God itโs daytime, if not he would have wasted me.
He said I must pay 50k. I asked for which crime. He said he will take me to the police station and they will deal with me if I donโt pay. I said okay, I prefer to go to the station. One boy in the bus said if I have money I should pay, if not they might rape me on the way. He asked another guy in mufti to follow me to a POS and withdraw, so I withdrew 50k and gave them.
I will attach how I was dressed that day. It wasnโt even indecent. I cried and cried and told him Earth will deal with him. Most of these police are brutal. He was so bold in telling me I should thank God it was in a day time if notโฆ #endpolicebrutality
With what i personally know. 90 percent of efcc staff survive on yahoo raids.
They all have btc wallets some as High as 300k usd plus sitting there collected from yahoo boys
They live far above their 300 400k salaries. They drive expensive cars and drive Toyota to work.
They operate like a cartel. Officers who don't play ball are sent to less lucrative commands in the north.
Bribe reigns supreme and politicians cases and their relatives are treated differently in their offices than normal cases
They force thousands of young boys to take plea bargains for promotions and turn them into ex convicts
They do not record many cars and properties they sieze. Efcc sell majority behind the scenes
They take between 5 to 10 m naira to release boys who want to avoid court
Efcc is a criminal organization
@ARISEtv Did he just say we don't really have money? And at the end of the day we'll have something to see?
Nigeria Senate president? My God this is my first time hearing him speak! This man is dubious!
If you get I the wrong train, get off at the nearest station, the longer it takes you to get off the more expensive the return trip will be
- And it is not only about trains.
The desert teaches you about water, in a way the ocean never will
Because when you have everything you feel nothing, but when you have nothing you understand everything!
Before you speak, listen.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you act, watch.
Before you change, observe.
Most mistakes come from moving too soon.
Before you move, think first.
Crying is how your eyes speak when your heart is too broken for words
And every tear you hide becomes a story your soul still carries
So let them fall let them speak
