Odaily reports: PHP has issued a security advisory regarding two previously disclosed critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerabilities, identified as CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619. Attackers may exploit these vulnerabilities to execute malicious code without authentication, and PHP officially strongly recommends that all users upgrade immediately.These vulnerabilities affect PHP environments that handle web requests, including PHP-FPM, Apache mod_php, php-cgi, FrankenPHP, and LiteSpeed. Among these, Apache mod_php poses a particularly prominent risk, as attacks can be triggered before application code runs.Official patched versions have been released: PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36, and 8.2.35. Users still running PHP 8.1 or earlier should contact their distribution or long-term support (LTS) vendor to confirm patch availability, or upgrade to a supported version. Officials emphasize that temporary mitigation measures cannot fully eliminate the risk—installing security updates immediately is the only complete way to address the vulnerabilities.

Odaily reports: According to White House officials, U.S. President Trump plans to highlight his administration's efforts to combat scams carried out by overseas criminal organizations using cryptocurrency at a cybercrime event held at the White House. Transnational criminal syndicates are said to have stolen funds from American citizens through romance scams, phishing, ransomware attacks, and other means. U.S. law enforcement agencies have frozen approximately $833 million in crypto assets linked to overseas fraud and, under a Department of Homeland Security task force operation, seized 503 fraudulent cryptocurrency websites, while notifying nearly 9,000 U.S. citizens that they were being targeted by scams. As the U.S. congressional midterm elections approach, Trump and his administration's ties to the crypto industry are also drawing scrutiny over conflict-of-interest allegations. (CoinDesk)

Odaily reports: Musk stated on SpaceX's Q3 earnings call that both the SpaceX and Tesla boards have established independent special committees of directors to evaluate the possibility of a merger between the two companies.According to Tesla's latest quarterly filings and the S-1 filing submitted by SpaceX ahead of its IPO, the two companies hold 11,509 and 18,712 bitcoins respectively, totaling 30,221 bitcoins. At a bitcoin price of approximately $83,000, this is worth about $2.5 billion. The combined cost basis of the two companies' bitcoin holdings is approximately $1 billion, with an average purchase price of about $35,000 per coin. If the merger is completed, these bitcoins would be consolidated onto a single company's balance sheet, placing the combined entity among the publicly traded companies holding the most bitcoin globally. However, neither company has disclosed plans to increase or sell its bitcoin holdings, and the merger remains in the preliminary evaluation stage. (Decrypt)
