- Bunny CDN Security Incident
Bunny CDN status-page notice, posted 28 October 2026, about unauthorized access at an infrastructure provider that hosted one bunny.net CDN node in Armenia. Traffic was stopped within 20 minutes and the server wiped. No access to the node was found, but cached content, Pull Zone configs and TLS certificates could have been exposed, so all platform certificates were reissued. Customers with their own certificates should rotate them with new private keys.

4 real? Tracking exploitation and patching of eMudhra’s weak keysCloudflare's follow-up on eMudhra's eight trivially recoverable intermediate CA keys (such as 4, 56 and 66), disclosed 19 October 2026. Pingora logging showed about 22,000 handshakes with the weak keys, including about 160 forged certificates made within hours of disclosure. Probes on 50 million challenge pages show many bots, old browsers and Android WebView still trust the chain.

From help desk impersonation to AD CS abuse: Investigating ESC1 and ESC8 intrusion pathsMicrosoft Threat Intelligence analysis of two human-operated intrusions that began with Teams help desk impersonation and Quick Assist sessions, then diverged at AD CS. Case 1 abused an ESC1 template for privileged certificates and DCSync, with an excluded account later used for Rclone exfiltration. Case 2 used PetitPotam and ESC8 relay to get a domain controller certificate and PKINIT. Includes investigation steps, AD CS hardening and KQL hunting queries.

OpenAI Proves ETH Is False, and Crypto Twitter Has QuestionsDecrypt reports that OpenAI published a 67-page paper (dated 17 October 2026, revised 25 October) claiming its AI found a deterministic subexponential-time algorithm for counting 3-SAT solutions, which would refute the Exponential Time Hypothesis. The proof was formalized in Lean. Impagliazzo, Paturi and Ryan Williams are reviewing it independently and say this is not certification. Anthropic posted a Claude-credited 3-SAT paper on 26 October.

Enrolment proves in zero knowledge that an ICAO 9303 passport chip was signed by a trusted signer, plus an enclave face match. Voting uses threshold exponential ElGamal on Baby Jubjub with Groth16 proofs, and tally uses a GJKR DKG with a 7-day challenge window. The author, who is pseudonymous, discloses that AI agents drafted most of it and asks for critique of unlinkability, circuit completeness and certificate trust.

Chosen Commitments and Certified Decoding Regions in the Adaptive Threshold Schnorr AttackThis IACR ePrint 2026/2632 paper by Demirtaş and Yayla analyses the Crites–Stewart adaptive forgery attack on threshold Schnorr signatures, which needs one call to a sparse linear search oracle (bounded distance decoding of a scaled Reed–Solomon code). It shows that choosing the commitment coefficient vector does not help much: a wrapper adversary with Q challenges succeeds with probability at most QM/p, even if its solvers decode every witness for free. For the six original (N, τ) pairs, M stays below 2^24, so the bound is under 2^-100 after 2^128 challenges at p = 2^252.

The paper shows that DIAA, a per-sample sigma-weighted hybrid, emits unexecuted tool-integrated reasoning on 29% of MATH-500 prompts (three times vanilla GRPO) even with Python fences removed from its anchor. ICA gates sigma with paired-rollout evidence, cutting TIR to 13.8% (frozen) and 11.2% (online) and raising accuracy from 47.5% to 48.7% and 49.3%. It transfers to GSM8K.

When Elliptic-Curve Semiprimality Certificates Reveal FactorsThe paper formalizes elliptic-curve semiprimality certificates by adapting the Goldwasser-Kilian primality criterion. For certificates built with complex multiplication, a norm-lattice reconstruction factors N from (N, S, D) alone in expected polynomial time. The author uses it, plus public-point and quadratic-twist attacks, to factor Reble's 1084-digit and Broadhurst's 5061-digit moduli, and shows that hidden-cofactor, withheld-CM-map and private-isogeny repairs also fail.

EMudhra Intermediate CA Certificates CompromisedUnit 42 advisory on the compromise of eight intermediate CA private keys belonging to Indian CA eMudhra Limited. The keys were generated with insufficient randomness, so attackers could derive them from the public certificates and sign rogue TLS certificates for MitM attacks. eMudhra has revoked the certificates and browser and OS vendors have untrusted them. Interim guidance covers PKI and trust store audits, reissuance, strict CRL/OCSP checking, log hunting, CT monitoring and CAA records.

PQ-Vault: Provably Quantum-Safe Asset Custody for Unmodified EthereumPQ-Vault is a custody design for unmodified Ethereum against quantum key recovery. It combines a quantum-safe vault contract, a proof-of-stake sidechain with compact certificates, and an optimistic dispute protocol. The paper proves that compact certificates with classically chosen parameters fall from 128 to about 60 bits against quantum attackers, and bounds a seed-update stake-steering attack. For 65,536 validators a certificate is 0.8 MB and verifies in about 20 ms, and the vault accepts a checkpoint for about 420,000 gas.
