The X account of betting platform @Polymarket account is now withheld in India.
This development has no relation to the fact that they ran below poll during the CJP protests in Delhi

The first step towards dealing with a colossal fuckup is to acknowledge that it is a colossal fuckup, instead of trying to weasel out of it with ad hominem against ppl explaining the seriousness of this colossal fuckup.
Our bureaucrats treat Yes Minister as guidance not parody.

you're just going about your day and you now get to read stuff like "Trump says Sundar Pichai talked him out of renaming the Atlantic Ocean" and you just have to nod and move on with your day.

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

see - if eMudhra was chinese, they would never have picked number 4 as their private key

I suspect the real reason eMudhra is exiting the SSL business is Google indicated it is most likely going to drop eMudhra from being trusted by Chrome AT ALL, after observing inexplicable incompetence in how they mis-generated their private key for the CA certificate.

BREAKING: eMudhra exits SSL/TLS certificate business, blames social media instead of incompetence for the same

So this is an interesting story. How eMudhra became the foundation of global internet. Im surprised that no news channels are digging up the root CA history. Maybe people dont know that this is public information.
groups.google.com/g/mozilla.…
So this is the discussion list for mozilla security policy back in 2018. When emudhra first applied for inclusion as a root ca.
One of the maintainers questions eMudhra's credentials as an "Indian co".
The filing in response is very interesting.
"eMudhra has been a licensed CA under
Controller of Certifying Authorities which operates the Indian
Government Root for more than 10 years and is also a licensed CA in
Mauritius under Ministry of IT, Mauritius. eMudhra has issued over 35
million digital certificates (3% of India’s population).
eMudhra is a critical partner to Digital India and supports the usage of
digital signatures on a variety of eGovernance platforms for
Government of India including Company Law Board, Income Tax, Goods
and Service Tax (GST / VAT), eProcurement, Travel Portals, Customs,
Banking etc. eMudhra’s solutions power digital signature and other
multifactor authentication for over 35 Banks which include domestic
and global Banks. eMudhra also has a proprietary CA solution which is
today used by the Indian Army and other defense establishments."
Eventually mozilla HAD to accept, because emudhra claimed publicly - "But this was not a complete Webtrust audited setup. Rather, it is under Government of India." – at San Francisco, CA
The important thing with incidents like @eMudhra is to proceed openly and by engaging with the communit… ah crap
Global TLS Intermediate CA incident: We’ve updated our incident page with how it happened, who is affected (one US customer ecosystem), what’s not affected, and what we’re putting in place. We will publish the root cause once our investigation is complete.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
eMudhra minimizes the scope by claiming only "one US customer ecosystem" is affected. In reality, 8 of its CA certificates had catastrophically weak private keys (one being simply the number 4), allowing anyone to forge trusted HTTPS certificates for any website on the internet.blog.google/security/prote…

Indian govt can't secure shit: emudhra, aadhaar, the list is endless. CERT-IN issues advisories, protects nothing.
But Home Min & DOT will shove stupid ideas down our throats be of their god complex.
They have no idea how much will break, & can't be bothered to figure out
Breaking :
SIM Binding will be Operational from 1st of January
#WhatsApp and Telegram Messenger will require a Physical Sim to operate.
#Apple has made necessary changes in its iOS to support Sim binding
A software patch was released in September to detect the absence of a Sim card in the iPhone.
Snapchat not required to follow Sim binding rules.
Signal App has not responded to govt notices on Sim Binding rules.
Details Here.

Replying to @mehulmpt
the certificates were issued a long time ago, and are embedded in many IoT devices. in that time, the ability to intercept encrypted emails and SMS meant that many challenge/response logins were wide open.
so there could be backdoors in place across the ENTIRE internet.
Think like a state backed red team.
Every single system exposed to the 'net needs to be examined for breaches. including ISP hardware.
Kiran Jonnalagadda retweeted
> The revoked intermediates themselves have no customer impact. They never issued a certificate, so no certificate in use anywhere relied on them.
This is a listed company whose business is digital signatures, completely missing the point. 🤦♂️
Everyone who either had emudhra's certs in their trust store or communicates with such entities who had that, is impacted - not just emudhra "customers". Because many web browsers, operating systems, and cloud provides included these, almost everyone in the world is impacted.
Cloudflare explains the seriousness of the problem:

I read this and I'm terrified, the situation seems intractable.
In the python ecosystem alone every cpython install, venv, UV is at risk.
Don't get my started on npm, pnpm, yarn, go, rust.
My current 2026 security posture: stay home and only connect to the internet from a trusted ISP.
The winter is coming.

Trump:
I called Google Maps to change the name of the Atlantic Ocean to Trump Ocean.
Sundar said, “No, no, no. This time I'm not doing it.” He said, “Oceans are different, sir. They cover a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that.”
So we'll probably pass. Let's keep it the Atlantic Ocean.
We are underestimating the bad faith eMudhra possibly operated in. They actively added a step to the key generation process causing this failure but are making it seem like a dumb mistake. Let me explain with diagrams and python snippets 👇

Jeff Epstein couldn't mount a more passionate defence. Spin doctor Padma Joshi creates two worlds that Epstein operated in, one criminal and the other professional, which never converged apparently. She will be remembered for doing her job of defending the Modi regime. Slow 👏🏾

So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.
