Hijacked Country Code Domains Lead to Fake Google HTTPS Certificates

Security researchers have uncovered a sophisticated campaign in which malicious actors compromised three country‑code top‑level domains—namely .gh (Ghana), .sl (Sierra Leone) and .as (American Samoa). By leveraging weaknesses in the validation processes of these registries, the attackers secured unauthorized HTTPS certificates for several Google‑hosted properties. While Google’s core infrastructure remains intact, the breach exposes any site ending in those suffixes to potential man‑in‑the‑middle attacks, undermining user trust in encrypted connections.

LMCache Zero‑Day Allows Remote Code Execution Without Authentication

A serious vulnerability has been uncovered in LMCache, an open‑source caching solution designed to accelerate large language model inference. The bug exists in the software’s multiprocess mode, where the cache runs as a standalone server reachable via ZeroMQ. Because no authentication is required, an attacker can craft a malicious message that triggers arbitrary code execution on the underlying host. At present, no patched version is available, leaving deployments that rely on LMCache exposed to potential compromise.
