It got stupid again.The internet still feels held together with tape. Bad plugins, old bugs, fake tools, trusted apps doing shady things. Same mess, new wrapper. And now the weird stuff is normal. Forums go down and come back worse. Cheap hackers get better toys. AI starts breaking real systems. Great.Read the whole thing before it ruins your week anyway.
Unauthenticated SSRF risk
Cisco has released fixes to address a high-severity security flaw in Unified Communications Manager (CVE-2026-20230, CVSS score: 8.6) that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks through an affected device. "This vulnerability is due to improper input validation for specific HTTP requests," Cisco said. "An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to write files to the underlying operating system that could be used later to elevate to root." The issue has been addressed in Cisco Unified CM and Unified CM SME Release versions 14SU6 and 15SU5. Cisco said it's aware of the availability of proof-of-concept exploit code for the flaw, but noted there is no evidence of active exploitation. It credited an independent security researcher working with SSD Secure Disclosure for reporting the vulnerability.
