Two New feeds from CERT-FR integrated in Vulnerability-Lookup
Two New feeds from CERT-FR @cert_frcert_fr@social.numerique.gouv.fr integrated in Vulnerability-Lookup
Thanks to the great of @Rafiot ,we now have two new feeders in Vulnerability-Lookup:
➤ CERT-FR Alerte (vulnerability.circl.lu/recent#…), and
➤ CERT-FR Avis (vulnerability.circl.lu/recent#…)
We were impressed by the excellent quality of these feeds (and the descriptions), which allowed us to automatically extract impacted products (CPE vendors & names) and references to enrich our #Kvrocks indexes (see screenshots).
Correlations
As with all our sources, advisories from CERT-FR are now automatically correlated with the other 27 (!) sources available on the CIRCL instance:
Examples of correlations:
➤ Related CVEs for a product from Ivanti from the “Alerte” CERTFR-2024-ALE-013: vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/CE…
➤ CVE-2025-9478 - vulnerability in Chrome: vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/CE…
Sightings
You can already find sightings tied to CERT-FR advisories. For example, the sightings related to alerts published in 2025: vulnerability.circl.lu/sightin…
Contribute
Have a source you think should be integrated into Vulnerability-Lookup? Let us know!
It’s fairly easy to add new feeders, as you can see here: github.com/vulnerability-looku…
Don’t hesitate to create an account on our instance: vulnerability.circl.lu/user/si…

Sofia Mayor Vasil Terziev Joins Istanbul Rally Supporting Imprisoned Opposition Mayors
Sofia Mayor Vasil Terziev attended an opposition rally in Istanbul, showing support for the detained mayors of Turkey’s Republican People’s Party (CHP). Terziev was present in his capacity as chairman of the B40 Balkan Cities Network, alongside Jaume Collboni, vice-chairman of the Eurocities Network and mayor of Barcelona. Both joined the guests on the rostrum at the event, held in the center of Istanbul to back imprisoned Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and other arrested CHP officials.The rally, titled “The People Stand Up for Their Will,” was broadcast live on opposition channels HalkTV, Sozcu, and Cumhuriyet TV. CHP leader Özgür Özel introduced the European guests from the stage, noting that a delegation of ten European mayors and representatives from various cities would engage in discussions throughout the day. The delegation plans to present the “Special Democracy Award” to İmamoğlu, currently held in Silivri prison, and will make statements following meetings with him, including a visit to the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality.
The delegation, which included four Balkan mayors from Sofia, Bucharest, Athens and Zagreb, intended to meet Imamoglu on Thursday to show their support and present him with a “special democracy award” in prison. But Turkish authorities vetoed the visit, and no official explanation was given for the decision.After being prevented from visiting Imamoglu, the delegation held a press conference in front of the prison, handing the democracy award instead to Imamoglu’s wife, Dilek.
“European mayors are speaking with one voice. We are a force for democratic resistance. We will continue to stand together with our colleague Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu. His courage in defence of democratic principles inspires us all,” said Barcelona mayor Jaume Collboni, who is also vice-president of Eurocities, an alliance of larger European cities.
Sofia’s mayor, Vasil Terziev, also spoke, expressing the Balkan Cities Network’s support for Imamoglu.
“I stand here as president of the B40 Balkan Cities Network, a network established by Ekrem Imamoglu. The gates and walls of this prison are not only a barrier for one man but also for the will of millions of citizens of Istanbul who elected their mayor,” Terziev said.
He said that Balkan mayors also face judicial pressures and political imprisonment in their own countries. “An attack on a democratically elected mayor is an attack on all democratic institutions regardless of the country. That is why our solidarity with Imamoglu…is a democratic and moral responsibility,” Terziev added.
Apart from Collboni and Terziev, the delegation included Zagreb mayor Tomislav Tomasevic, Athens mayor Haris Doukas, Timisoara Mayor Dominic Fritz, Utrecht mayor Sharon Dijksma, Budapest mayor Gergely Szilveszter Karacsony, Paris deputy mayor Arnaud Ngatcha, Madrid international relations general director Jose Francisco Herrera Antonaya and Eurocities secretary-general Andre Sobczak.

After 2 Million AI Orders, Taco Bell Admits Humans Still Belong in the Drive-Thru
Fast food companies have been experimenting with integrating artificial intelligence into their restaurants, from Flippy the burger-flipping robot at White Castle to dynamic pricing at Wendy's. One arena where AI seems to really be struggling, though, is at the drive-thru -- and Taco Bell is the latest to experience AI mishaps at the order box. After taking 2 million orders with AI, Taco Bell has reached one conclusion: we still need humans.

The idea is that we automate everything and the more we do the more we pass that productivity/efficiency down to people via UBI/wellfare/less working hours and when we hit star trek levels people are free run in fields, paint or just goon all day if they want to.
But we're doing the opposite, creating bullshit jobs to keep busy and pretend capitalism is working while starving and driving to extinction everyone who is not significantly wealthy while elite brag about driving innovation and the future of mankind.

in reply to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆ • • •A lot has been written about "ai", decades and generations ago. I'm not sure if anyone considered the impact on human emotions in a manner that's toxic and widespread.
I'm just thinking of a future story where a portion of the population are so traumatized by conversations with machines that they escape their realities in various ways. People talking with computers as if they're human seems very dystopian from the start. The next ten yers is going to be wild.
But also, this is a damn good start to the Thought Police. Imagine if a government gained access to these logs. Actually, I'd be surprised if the US govt didn't already have access to twitter. They're already cracking down on free speech that criticizes them / him.
