State of intolerance.
The Center for Monitoring Freedom of Religion and Documenting Harassment of Christians documents a significant and growing trend: increased attacks on Christian clergy and pilgrims in Israel. Prompted by the alarming number of incidents, the Committee on Aliyah, Absorption and Diaspora Affairs convened a meeting to address the harassment and its impact on displays of antisemitism.
During the meeting, it was revealed that 20 incidents of harassment against Christians occurred in Jerusalem’s Old City in April alone, and the police have opened 28 cases in the past year, with 17 resulting in criminal investigations.
Knesset member Aida Touma-Suleiman
emphasized that reported incidents to the police likely represent a significant undercount, suggesting that the true number is far greater than the 100 reported cases. She further highlighted the involvement of police in the harassment, citing instances of pushing clergy and preventing access to churches, adding, "Had these attacks occurred in another country, there would have been an uproar."
This trend, supported by data from the center, exposes a pattern of attacks, including verbal abuse, vandalism, and physical assault, directly contradicting Israel’s stated commitment to protecting freedom of religion and holy places for all faiths, particularly given the simultaneous destruction of mosques and churches in Gaza.

A Berlino viene presentato lo Z3.
Lo Z3 è il primo calcolatore totalmente programmabile e totalmente automatico, quindi viene spesso indicato come il primo computer della storia. Il suo creatore è Konrad Zuse. È il terzo calcolatore realizzato da Zuse, evoluzione dello Z1 e dello Z2.
Una copia funzionante venne realizzata negli anni sessanta dalla Zuse KG ed è in esposizione permanente al Deutsches Museum.

Allarme sviluppatori: malware camuffati da librerie Go cancellano i dati Linux
Sono stati scoperti tre componenti dannosi nell’ecosistema dei moduli software Go, in grado di causare la perdita completa dei dati sui sistemi Linux. Dall’esterno i pacchetti scoperti sembravano legittimi e non destavano sospetti tra gli sviluppatori, ma al loro interno contenevano codice offuscato che attivava il meccanismo per caricare la fase successiva dell’attacco.
Una volta installato, il malware verificava se Linux era in uso e, in tal caso, si collegava a un server remoto tramite wget per scaricare uno script che avrebbe cancellato l’unità principale del dispositivo. Questo script scriveva degli zeri nell’area /dev/sda, rendendo impossibile il recupero dei dati e rendendo il sistema stesso completamente inutilizzabile.
Gli autori dell’analisi della società Socket sottolineano che un simile approccio esclude la possibilità di un’analisi successiva o di un recupero delle informazioni. L’attacco dimostra quanto possa essere distruttiva la manipolazione nella catena di fornitura del software, dove la fiducia nel codice sorgente diventa una seria minaccia.
In seguito a questo incidente, gli esperti hanno registrato anche un’ondata di pacchetti dannosi in altri repository popolari. In npm sono stati scoperti componenti in grado di rubare frasi mnemoniche e chiavi private dai portafogli crittografici. Tra questi ci sono nomi che contengono riferimenti a sistemi di pagamento, il che può trarre in inganno. Questi moduli sono stati progettati per raccogliere informazioni riservate e inviarle agli aggressori.
Parallelamente, nel repository Python PyPI sono stati scoperti strumenti con obiettivi simili . Alcuni di essi, come web3x e herewalletbot, avevano funzionalità integrate di seed-stealing e si stima che siano stati scaricati oltre 6.800 volte dalla loro pubblicazione nel 2024.
Di particolare preoccupazione era un gruppo di sette pacchetti PyPI che utilizzavano i server SMTP di Gmail e le connessioni WebSocket per scambiare segretamente dati con server remoti. Le credenziali Gmail codificate hanno consentito agli aggressori di inviare messaggi relativi all’avvenuta installazione del malware e di mantenere un contatto costante con l’aggressore. L’utilizzo di un servizio legittimo ha ridotto significativamente la probabilità di essere scoperti, poiché molti sistemi aziendali non bloccano il traffico che passa attraverso i domini cloud più diffusi.
Tra tutti i pacchetti menzionati, cfc-bsb si distingue in modo particolare, poiché non ha la funzionalità SMTP, ma ha un’implementazione completa del protocollo WebSocket, che fornisce inoltre all’aggressore l’accesso remoto alla macchina infetta.
Per ridurre i rischi, si consiglia agli sviluppatori di controllare attentamente la cronologia delle pubblicazioni delle librerie, di controllare i link ai repository GitHub, di rivedere regolarmente le dipendenze utilizzate e di limitare l’accesso alle chiavi private. Bisogna prestare particolare attenzione al traffico in uscita non standard, in particolare tramite SMTP, poiché anche servizi noti come Gmail possono essere utilizzati per il trasferimento nascosto di dati.

in reply to Erpel • • •The video begins with a close-up of a gauge labeled "HORNY," featuring a semi-circular scale marked from 0 to 10, with numbers at intervals of 1. The gauge has a black needle that moves from left to right, indicating an increasing level of "horniness." The needle starts at a low level and gradually moves towards the right, reaching higher levels on the scale. The background is white, and the word "HORNY" is prominently displayed at the bottom of the gauge. The scene then transitions to a depiction of a nuclear explosion, characterized by a bright, fiery mushroom cloud with a glowing core and a large, billowing cloud of smoke and debris. The explosion is shown in various stages, with the cloud expanding and the colors shifting from bright yellow and orange to darker shades, indicating the intense heat and energy of the blast. The video concludes with the mushroom cloud continuing to rise and spread, emphasizing the destructive power of the explosion.
