๐จ BREAKING: CRITICAL 9.5/10 VULNERABILITY THREATENS SERVERS WORLDWIDE. HACKERS COULD EXECUTE CODE BEFORE THE OPERATING SYSTEM EVEN LOADS.
Security researchers have uncovered a 16-year-old firmware vulnerability in technology used across the global server and data center ecosystem.
CVE-2026-97631 affects TianoCore EDK II, a foundational component used by major UEFI firmware vendors.
And the implications are serious.
๐ด Here's what we know:
โ Pre-boot code execution: Attackers could execute malicious code at Ring 0, the CPU's highest privilege level, before operating system security controls are active.
โ Widespread exposure: EDK II code is used extensively by firmware vendors including AMI, Insyde, and Phoenix, potentially exposing numerous enterprise servers.
โ Security bypass potential: Successful exploitation could undermine the boot chain of trust and potentially enable persistent malware or compromise sensitive information.
โ 16 YEARS UNDISCOVERED: The underlying buffer overflow has existed for approximately 16 years.
โ Disclosure went wrong: Researchers from Anthropic and Google discovered the vulnerability, but a publicly released code fix exposed the issue months before its planned coordinated disclosure.
โ ๏ธ THE BIG PROBLEM:
A source-code fix has been merged, but affected servers still require firmware updates from their manufacturers. Distributing those updates across enterprise infrastructure could take considerable time.
Important: Exploitation requires vulnerable firmware, PXE network boot, network access during the boot process, and target-specific knowledge. This is not an unrestricted remote exploit against every server.
Organizations should immediately review their firmware exposure, disable unnecessary network boot functionality, and check for vendor updates.

๐จ BREAKING: President Trump just put a bounty on fraud, and every American can cash in.
He announced the Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program today. You report fraud at https://t.co/XVTU1E4nTj, and if it's real, you get paid. Trump's words: "If you find a billion dollars, we are giving a commission to that person of 1%."
Find 10 billion, and that's 100 million in your pocket.
California's answer was reportedly a law to shut down Nick Shirley. Trump's answer is to deputize the whole country.
The fraudsters spent years robbing us blind. Now 330 million Americans are watching, and every one of them has a reason to turn them in.
LEGAL ALERT: The Fifth Circuit has ruled that the Federal Switchblade Act is unconstitutional, noting that they "qualify as 'Arms' and are covered by the โplain textโ of the Second Amendment." https://t.co/FCeCnx8SRF
"NBC News spoke with five people who were pulled over or detained after police received false Flock alerts, including one who was jailed for nearly two weeks."

THE SUPREME COURT IS ABOUT TO DECIDE WHETHER AMERICANS CAN OWN AN AR-15.
Arguments are set for December 2 in two consolidated cases challenging bans on semi-automatic rifles in Illinois and Connecticut.ย
The Second Amendment says the right of the people to keep and bear arms "shall not be infringed."
Fox's Joey Jones put it plainly: an AR-15 is the best-selling rifle in America, it fires like any other semi-automatic, and it isn't deadlier because it looks scary.
AR doesn't stand for assault rifle. Defend the Second Amendment, it protects the First Amendment

Youtuber builds system that mimics Flock to spy on cops.
Cops show up at his door and ask what he is going to do with all the data he is collecting.
Youtuber responds that this is the exact same concern citizens have when you use this same technology to spy on them.
