Swati KhandelwalSep 25, 2026Cloud Security / Vulnerability A flaw in Cloudflare Containers let a paying customer read data that other customers’ containers had left behind on the same server, Cloudflare and the researchers who found it said on Thursday. The data came from disk space that earlier containers had used and given up, not from any live workload, and an attacker could not choose whose data they got, according to Cloudflare. The company has fixed the flaw across its service and says customers need to do nothing. Cloudflare Containers runs customers’ programs inside containers on servers shared by many accounts,…

About 4.6 billion years ago, the solar system began as an enormous cloud of gas and dust. Over the next several million years, this “solar nebula” changed dramatically. The cloud collapsed and flattened into a disk, eventually giving rise to the sun at its center and the planets that formed around it. Gravity has long been considered the main force behind this transformation. New research from MIT, however, suggests that magnetism may also have been an important part of the process. Scientists found evidence of ancient magnetic fields preserved in some of the oldest meteorite material ever identified. The researchers…

She argued there were too many “unknowns” about the impacts of concentrations of PCBs on the body and no treatment for those found to have elevated levels in their blood.”All we could do is give [people] a number that we can’t really interpret and then we can’t make right.”She felt this could “create even more worry and that is a health harm in itself”.”There is nothing that blood testing can do that would magically take those worries away – it would only potentially magnify them,” Jones said.Asked whether the cost of implementing a blood testing regime was also a factor,…

Hope is a fragile thing. You can only hold on to it as long as you find reasons to believe tomorrow can be better. A woman, for instance, who has the resources and opportunity to rent her own flat will be more likely to leave her abusive husband and recover. A pupil who has their own room and desk to do their homework might find more meaning in thriving at school. And an elderly person who can afford to live in a neighbourhood where they feel safe and connected is less likely to become isolated and depressed.It’s not by chance…

The federal government could change Australian laws if the current legal framework could not respond to the unprecedented OpenAI hack of Medicare, ministers have confirmed.On Friday, the government said the review by spy agency, the Australian signals directorate, would consider whether legislative change was needed after the prime minister revealed an artificial intelligence agent developed by OpenAI hacked Medicare’s statistics website and three other systems in June.If current laws could not touch the tech giant, they would need updating, environment minister Murray Watt said on Friday.“There’s now a review of this underway through that task force that we’ve appointed, and…

In der EU geht es um Aufträge, die einen erheblichen Teil der Wirtschaftsleistung ausmachen. Von Windparks bis hin zu Stahl und Zement für den Bau von Autobahnen und U-Bahnen. Deutschland, das Exportkraftzentrum der Union, dringt auf eine breiter angelegte „Made with Europe“-Definition. Dies entspricht auch weitgehend dem ursprünglichen Vorschlag der Kommission. Er sieht die Aufnahme von Partnern vor, die Freihandels- oder Beschaffungsabkommen mit der EU geschlossen haben oder einer Zollunion mit der Union angehören. Der Kreis könnte bis zu 80 Länder umfassen. „Deutschland lehnt Protektionismus und Diskriminierung ab“, heißt es in dem deutschen Papier. „Die EU muss ein verlässlicher Partner…

Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband has told Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi that the UK will “not tolerate intimidation, threats or hostile activity on UK soil”.The ministers met face-to-face at the UN General Assembly in New York City.The Foreign Office said Miliband spoke to his counterpart about “the UK’s unwavering resolve to combat threats from Iranian-linked groups in UK soil, including attacks on the British Jewish community”, and discussed war in the Middle East and a British couple detained in Iran.There was no immediate comment from Araghchi.

Andy Burnham came to power promising greater “public control” over the UK’s utilities, such as water and energy. His reasons for doing so were to cut what is described as the “privatisation premium” paid for public services by consumers, and to improve their quality. The plight of the stricken Thames Water exemplifies the scale of those problems.Yet two months on, the government has failed to provide any real clarification of what it means by “public control”, beyond stating that this may not necessarily mean public ownership of these companies. One option under discussion is to build a network of regional…

Communications has never been more important to Microsoft. The company is changing, our industry is changing, and the world around us is changing. And in a media environment that is increasingly fragmented and noisier than ever, we need to continue to be grounded in our mission, earn trust each day, and find new ways to connect directly with all of our constituencies.I first want to thank Frank for everything he has done for Microsoft. He has made tremendous contributions to the company and to our communications function over the last 17+ years. And he’s been a great source of counsel…
