‼️🚨 Researcher "Nightmare-Eclipse" had their GitHub account flagged and wiped after publicly dropping zero-day PoCs targeting Microsoft products.

In a message, they accuse Microsoft of deleting the account they used to report bugs (with zero payout for past disclosures).

The signed message ends with a direct threat: "Mark this date July 14th, I will make sure your bones are shattered that day."

A new GitLab account is already up at gitlab.com/nightmare-ecli…, with the bio "Microsoft's nightmare."

❗️ Pope Leo XIV says AI must be "disarmed" or it will deepen inequality and concentrate power. The warning runs 42,300 words in "Magnifica Humanitas," his first encyclical and the first papal encyclical in history dedicated to artificial intelligence.

Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah was among the presenters at the Vatican Synod Hall release on May 25, alongside Cardinals Víctor Manuel Fernández and Michael Czerny. Leo XIV is the first pontiff to personally present an encyclical.

For those who don’t know: an encyclical is a formal teaching letter from the Pope addressed to bishops, clergy, and the wider Catholic Church, often the entire world. It carries the highest weight of papal doctrine short of an infallible declaration and sets official Church teaching on faith, morals, or social issues.

‼️🚨 Over 700 Ghost CMS sites, including Harvard, Oxford, and Auburn, were compromised through an unauthenticated SQL injection (CVE-2026-26980).

Attackers pulled Admin API Keys and turned every site into a ClickFix delivery vector via fake Cloudflare "verify you are human" pages. Patch was out February 19. Most never applied it.

🚨 A zero-click attack is hijacking WhatsApp accounts on iPhones running iOS 16.

Victims scan no QR code, share no verification code, and see no linked device in the app.

Attackers then message the victim's contacts asking for bank transfers, and the likely chain (CVE-2025-43300 + CVE-2025-55177) is patched in iOS 16.7.12.

‼️🚨 Security researcher "Nightmare-Eclipse" has now also been removed from GitLab..

This follows their GitHub being wiped last week after they publicly dropped zero-day PoCs targeting Microsoft products.

The message from major code hosts is clear: drop unpatched exploits in public, lose the platform.
